Later this afternoon, I’m going into battle against House Republicans who are trying to slash Medicaid by $880 billion.
I sit on the @energycommerce.bsky.social. Republicans will have to go through me to get their Medicaid cuts passed.
I’m fighting tooth and nail for your healthcare.

Republicans are going to try to take health care away from tens of millions of Americans to give tax breaks to the wealthy and corporate interests.
In today’s Democratic Daily Download, Rep. Frank Pallone shares how Democrats are fighting back because Medicaid matters to the American people.
Edan Alexander is finally home. I’m thinking of Edan and his family as they begin to heal from unimaginable pain.
I urge for the continued release of all hostages, including the remains of four Americans to provide families with closure. We must secure a lasting peace in Gaza for all.
President Trump cancelled millions of dollars in grants — which were already allocated! — to lifesaving community violence intervention programs.
I spoke with Community Justice Action Fund to demand he reinstate funding.
To all CVI workers: I see you. I hear you. I’m fighting for you.
Libraries open up a world of possibilities, knowledge, and opportunity for people to explore different walks of life.
Dr. Carla Hayden, the nation’s Librarian of Congress, understood that.
For President Trump to fire her is shameful.
Pope Leo XIV grew up in Dolton — right here in the Second District!
I wish Pope Leo XIV wisdom and integrity as he leads the Church toward greater inclusion, stronger faith, and love for all.

Republicans voted to rename the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America. Seriously.
This morning, the Democratic Steering & Policy Committee heard from small business owners who are paying the price for Trump's trade war.
We're focused on what Americans actually care about.
Republicans want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion. It’s cruel. It’s evil. It’s against our mandate as public servants.
I spoke at the @CaringAcross.org 24-hour vigil today with a clear message: I will not let Republicans take away your healthcare.
Medicaid saves lives. Period.
Absolutely wonderful to meet Christina Perri, a singer who’s advocating for women on the Hill.
She told me about her two miscarriages, including her daughter Rosie at 38 weeks, due to an easily prevented blood clotting disorder.
Thank you, Christina, for sharing your story.
Great to meet with Railroad Day advocates today to talk about how freight rail supports jobs and infrastructure in the Second District!
Fun fact: Chicago is the busiest rail hub in North America, keeping freight moving throughout the country🚂. #RailDay2025
Don’t just take my word for it.

The NONPARTISAN Congressional Budget Office just exposed Republicans’ lies:
The Republican budget slashes Medicaid by $880 billion and will kick millions of people off their healthcare.
In the Second District, over 300,000 people would lose healthcare. That’s unacceptable.
It’s always great to chat with @gabbygiffords.bsky.social — even during these difficult times. She’s a fighter through and through.
With @demwomencaucus.bsky.social, we discussed how President Trump’s gun agenda will endanger women’s safety. We’re doing everything in our power to stop it.
I signed this petition to force Speaker Johnson to bring a vote to the floor to protect Medicaid and SNAP.
We just need four House Republicans to join us and side with the American people.
The Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act saves people’s healthcare and food assistance.
President Trump’s plan to eliminate Title 1 grants would fire 6,243 teachers in the Second District.
That’s unacceptable.
This Teacher Appreciation Week and beyond, I promise to protect all educators and public education.
Thank you, @schakowsky.house.gov, for your decades of public service.
I'm incredibly grateful for your partnership in the Illinois Delegation & the @energycommerce.bsky.social as we've fought for access to high-quality healthcare.
I know you'll continue to be a powerful advocate for The people.
Community violence intervention organizations are evidence-based solutions to end gun violence.
But the Trump administration stole millions of dollars designated by Congress to CVI programs.
Read the letter I sent to President Trump exclusively from @thetrace.org
www.thetrace.org/2025/05/cong...
President Trump and DOGE cut millions of dollars for community violence intervention programs.
This administration treats American lives callously at the direction of Elon Musk.
@frost.house.gov, @mcbath.house.gov, @repshontelbrown.bsky.social, and I are demanding that he reinstate these funds.
Trump claims that they’re “not going to touch Medicaid"—but the Republican budget directs the @energycommerce.bsky.social to cut $880B... and the Committee oversees Medicaid. 🤔
Take it from a member of the E&C Committee: The math isn’t mathing.
I’m prepared to block them at every attempt.
Arm yourselves with facts and vaccinations:
Two doses of the measles vaccination provides 97% protection. Children typically receive both doses before turning 6 years old.
If you were vaccinated before 1968, check with your healthcare provider to see if you need to be revaccinated.
