Trump’s proposed budget cuts to USDA’s Rural Business Service slash support for the economic development programs rural communities rely on.
In a district made up of rural towns and small businesses, these cuts threaten jobs, growth, and long‑term opportunity.

Today marks the start of Black Maternal Health Week, a time to emphasize the critical need to confront racism in maternal care.
I brought the issue of maternal mortality to Congress, and I’ll never stop in the fight to save Black women’s lives.
Families are paying more and more for basic needs. All prices went up by 0.9% in March.
Energy costs rose 10.9%.
Gas prices went up 21.2%.
Trump's shortsighted war in Iran is exacerbating the affordability crisis at home.
It means a lot to see new investments in our district!
Welcome to the Village of Matteson, Roux Car Wash!
I've lived in Matteson for years, and it’s so special to celebrate this village’s growth.
Congratulations to everyone who helped make this happen.
13 years ago today, I was sworn in for the first time to serve Illinois’ Second District.
A lot has changed since then.
My commitment to you has not.
Serving you has been the honor of my life, and that service will continue through the end of my term and beyond.
Welcome Home, Artemis II.
Your mission demonstrated the best of American leadership in science and exploration.
Thank you to the countless scientists, engineers, and astronauts who made this mission possible.
I cannot wait to hear more about what you saw and what comes next.
Trump has made it clear that family necessities like daycare are not his priority. He’s demanding half a trillion dollars to fund his reckless war but refuses to fund healthcare, daycare, or food security.
He's making the American Dream even harder for families to attain.
This National Public Health Week, Chicago’s 30-year life expectancy gap says it all.
Streeterville residents live to about 90, while on the South Side it’s closer to 60.
I am continuing to fight to close the gaps in housing, safety, and healthcare.
Trump said he would end wars and lower costs.
He did the opposite.
His reckless actions against Iran have brought more death, more chaos, and more pain in the Middle East, throwing the world into a period of uncertainty and instability.
During National Public Health Week, we honor the Black nurses and doctors who strengthen our communities every day.
Their leadership, cultural expertise, and commitment to equity are vital to a healthier future for all.
As food costs spike because of inflation, Trump’s budget slashes WIC, taking food out of the mouths of pregnant women, mothers, and children. This is a vile act against American Families.
I am continuing the fight to lower the costs of groceries.
Donald Trump’s reckless war is costing Americans billions of dollars every day as food, healthcare, and gas prices skyrocket.
Trump and Republicans need to focus on the American affordability crisis instead of wars.
@HouseDemocrats.bsky.social tried to force a vote to rein in this war in Iran.
Shame on Republicans for not even recognizing us to offer the War Powers Resolution.
They’ve forfeited our Congressional power to a man who started a costly war and spouts vile threats to annihilate a whole population.
Trump wants to cut the EPA's budget in half.
This would make it much harder to ensure that all Americans can breathe clean air and drink clean water, risking people's health across the country.
You have the right to clean air & water.
Guns are the leading cause of death for kids and teens. Gun violence is absolutely a public health crisis.
Sustained community violence intervention funding strengthens trusted local programs, reduces harm, and helps youth thrive.
Public health isn’t complete without safety.
Illinois families buying insurance on the ACA exchange are now paying 26% more than last year after Republicans let enhanced premium tax credits expire.
Enrollment is already slipping, and many may drop coverage as higher bills hit.
With a fragile ceasefire—after President Trump threatened a war crime— Trump’s war in Iran is causing chaos abroad and at home.
Attacks have continued. The death toll is rising. Gas prices are still up.
And we have the most incompetent Secretary of Defense and President leading our country.
Trump is demanding $350 billion more to fund his wars abroad.
That’s enough money to restore the enhanced ACA premium tax credits permanently, lowering healthcare costs for 20 million Americans.
But Trump is choosing war over healthcare.
During National Public Health Week, we are reminded that gun violence is a public health crisis.
Gun violence is preventable.
Communities thrive when we invest in evidence‑based solutions, support survivors, and build environments where everyone can live without fear.
I am heartbroken for the family and loved ones of the young man who was shot and killed this morning in South Shore.
Gun violence has once again stolen a young life.
We cannot accept such violence as normal.
We need commonsense solutions to end this public health crisis.
