Community violence intervention programs save lives from gun violence. Today, I spoke with CVI leaders, many who are survivors themselves, to emphasize how critical these programs are in building safer communities. I will not let Trump take away funds from CVI.

Read my full statement on how the House Republican partisan funding bill abandons hardworking Americans: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

Rep. Robin Kelly Votes No on Partisan Funding Bill

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) released the following statement after the U.S. House passed its partisan funding bill.

Here’s what House Republicans just voted to steal money from: ❌ Healthcare programs ❌ Gun violence prevention ❌ Affordable housing ❌ Veterans’ benefits I voted NO to this exploitation of the American people’s tax dollars.

Elon Musk will lie about Medicaid, Social Security, and Medicare to justify stealing from Americans and giving to billionaires like himself. Real people will suffer the consequences of his conspiracies.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 10(source)

In another betrayal of the American people, House Republicans’ funding bill would: 🎖️Cut almost $23B in veterans’ benefits 🏡Evict thousands from their homes 🤕Take away healthcare I am ready to support bipartisan legislation that considers all Americans. This is not it.

Yesterday, I walked in the footsteps of civil rights heroes like John Lewis. As I crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge arm in arm with my colleagues, I was reminded of why we never give up — especially in challenging times. #GoodTrouble

I attended the national TRIO summit celebration to honor the extraordinary contributions that the TRIO organization has made in supporting students nationwide. Empowering our youth is a top priority. The future is brighter with TRIO's help.

Happy International Women’s Day! Today, I am celebrating the contributions of women around the globe. I recommit to fighting for a world where all women can thrive.

60 years ago today, civil rights protestors led by MLK Jr. were attacked while marching the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Among them was a young John Lewis. This weekend, I’m in Selma to honor these activists who paved the way for us. We are who we are today because of their courage.

Today, I heard the story of Will, a child with special needs who depends on Medicaid for his health. Will and 37 million other children across the country relied on Medicaid last year — nearly half of the kids in the entire country. House Republicans are jeopardizing their care.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 6(source)

On Ash Wednesday, I’m urging Congress: give up billionaires for lent. Stealing money from vulnerable Americans to give the richest people tax cuts is shameful. I will continue to call for a more fair budget for everyday Americans.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 5(source)

Last year, I visited Brenda Stewart, a farm owner who supplies fresh food to her community in Pembroke through the IL-EATS program. Trump is withholding $17.8M from IL-EATS, threatening Brenda’s farm. Trump has no right to threaten their livelihoods. buff.ly/Kf5e6k4

Rep. Sylvester Turner was a compassionate leader who dedicated himself to serving others. I was proud to be his Congressional mentor and am heartbroken to hear of his passing. He made a lasting impact on Texas, and leaves behind a legacy that will never be forgotten. May he Rest in Power.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 5(source)

This is almost laughable. Trump is the one who let an unelected billionaire bring the swamp of corruption right to the White House. Elon Musk is the unelected bureaucrat who must go. #JointAddress

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 5(source)

The average price of a dozen eggs was $2.04 just over a year ago. Now: $4.95 a dozen. Trump will try and blame everyone but himself — but expect to pay even more with his reckless tariffs. #JointAddress

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 5(source)

So far, Trump has bragged about: ☑️Withdrawing from the World Health Organization ☑️His culture war against DEI ☑️Firing FAA employees ☑️Refusing to let trans kids play sports None of the above will make America affordable again. #JointAddress

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 4(source)

It’s President Trump’s second month in office and: ➡️ Gas and egg prices are soaring ➡️ The stock market is in free-fall ➡️ Hundreds are losing their jobs He’s dragging us into a trade war that YOU will have to pay for.

The CEOs of Target and Best Buy each said price increases are highly likely amid Trump's new tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China.

This Women’s History Month, I am honoring the women who have strengthened and inspired our country. I will continue to fight for women’s safety, reproductive freedoms, and equality.

While the American people face threats to their healthcare, Elon Musk waves a chainsaw on stage, laughing about cutting their essential coverage. I spoke today at UI Health to condemn these reckless cuts and speak up for the American people.
