I applaud the FTC for using the tools granted to them by this legislation to ensure transparency in online marketplaces. We need consistent, bipartisan enforcement and action from the FTC to ensure bad actors are held accountable. Consumers deserve to know their products are safe and legitimate.
For too long, platforms like Temu have operated with little accountability, raking in profits from dangerous and deceptive practices online. This is exactly why I authored the INFORM Consumers Act, legislation that requires platforms to verify the identity of online sellers.
On this day, 24 years ago, our world changed forever. A bright, sunny morning quickly turned into one of the darkest days in our nation’s history. Let us honor and mourn all those lives we tragically lost on September 11, 2001.
Political violence has no place in a democratic society. No matter our political differences, every American deserves to live and speak without fear of violence. We must reject hate in all forms. My thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.
Trump ally Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah, a source familiar with the matter says. The extent of Kirk's injuries was not immediately clear. https://cnn.it/46wT7i4
The Supreme Court just gave police the green light to target you because of your race. This is racism. Plain and simple. We need accountability, and we need it now. It's past time we reform the court. Organize. Protest. Pressure. The power is with the people.
What happened at SCOTUS today is alarming: The right-wing majority allowed the Trump admin, as part of its sweeping immigration raids, to racially profile Spanish-speaking people who look Latino at certain low-wage job sites in the Los Angeles area while litigation challenging the raids is ongoing.
Workers deserve freedom, not handcuffs disguised as contracts. The FTC abandoning the non-compete ban is a blow to workers, but the fight is far from over. Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter's dissent shows exactly why independent commissioners are critical to holding corporations accountable.
Donald Trump doesn’t get to declare war on American cities. Chicago isn’t a threat, he is. We are a hardworking community made up of workers, families, and organizers. We won’t let a wannabe dictator terrorize our city. Not now, not ever.
Great news to start the day! A court just reinstated FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter after President Trump illegally fired her.   Independent agencies must stay independent. Now, Rebecca can continue her work protecting consumers, lowering costs, and holding corporations accountable.
A federal appeals court ruled that Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, a Federal Trade Commission commissioner that President Donald Trump fired, can be temporarily reinstated.
This Labor Day, remember: the middle class didn’t just happen, unions built it. The 40-hour workweek. Fair wages. Safe workplaces. All won by workers organizing. Now, Trump & his billionaire cronies are trying to tear it all down. We won't let them. Pass the PRO Act. Raise the wage. #UnionStrong✊🏻
To all those in the 9th District, and across the Chicago area, it’s crucial that you KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.    Please go to my website for more info or call my office if you need assistance.   We are, and always will be, a nation of immigrants.
Federal authorities are planning a large-scale immigration enforcement operation in Chicago after Labor Day, government officials announced Thursday. blockclubchi.co/3JXV5iA
Trump and DOGE put YOUR Social Security information at risk! Officials recklessly mishandled the names, addresses, and personal data of millions of Americans — threatening our privacy and security. For the safety of all Americans, we as a Congress cannot allow this gross mismanagement to continue!
Breaking News: DOGE put the personal information of hundreds of millions of Americans at risk by uploading Social Security data to a vulnerable cloud server, a whistle-blower complaint said.
