The Trump Administration has gutted environmental protections, put profits over people, and fired the public servants dedicated to environmental stewardship. This Earth Day, we must recommit to fighting for a cleaner and healthier future – for us and the generations to come.
Autism is not a tragedy. It's not a disease. And it doesn't destroy families.  Fear and misunderstanding do.  To every individual with autism, I will fight alongside you. We reject RFK Jr’s lies and misinformation!
Hands off, Trump and Musk! Social Security is an earned benefit that 70 million Americans rely on, including 127,739 in my district! We will not allow them to gut the most popular agency just so they can pay for tax cuts for themselves and their billionaire friends.
Trump and Congressional Republicans want to strip health care away from millions of Americans to help pay for billionaire tax cuts. I’m a HELL NO on this extreme MAGA budget proposal.
Make no mistake about it: Trump's reported decision to freeze funding at Northwestern University will put life-saving cures and critical research at risk. This freeze won't protect the Jewish students Trump claims to defend, it will instead undermine their academic endeavors.
Better headline: Trump Wins, Hardworking Americans Lose The energy I felt this weekend at the Chicago Hands Off rally was unlike any feeling before. The American people want stability, not a wannabe king. We are making our voices loud. We can and will persist.
The stock markets have lost more than $6 trillion in value since President Donald Trump’s decision to upend the global economic order and impose sweeping tariffs last week. But on Sunday, the president won. Trump said he took first in the Senior Club Championship at his golf club. wapo.st/42b7C7O
President Donald Trump and his son Eric Trump drive in a golf cart after arriving at the LIV Golf tournament at his Trump National Doral Golf Club in Doral, Florida, on Thursday. The text reads, “As the markets fell, Trump putted.” Photo by Joe Raedle for Getty Images.
Closing nearly half of the Head Start regional offices, including the office in Chicago, will have devastating impacts. I demand answers from this administration. All kids deserve access to a quality, affordable education.
I have a list of people in my community who have rationed their insulin because they couldn't afford it. Trump and the current FTC don't care about these people. Lowering costs for the American people has taken a backseat to empowering billionaires.
The FTC has stayed its case against pharmaceutical benefit manufacturers accused of inflating the price of insulin because there are no commissioners available to rule on the case after President Trump fired the two Democratic members at the agency (and both GOP members are recused).
Speaker Johnson tried to block a bipartisan resolution to allow new moms and dads to vote remotely while caring for their newborns. He failed. Now he canceled votes for the rest of the week to delay a vote on this resolution. Why is Speaker Johnson so against supporting our families?
BREAKING: House Speaker Mike Johnson has CANCELED votes for the rest of the week after he failed to block a push by new parents in the U.S. House for proxy voting, story on vote by @jennifershutt.bsky.social @statesnewsroom.com DC www.newsfromthestates.com/article/win-...
To the entire trans community, I see you, I hear you, & I value you. 🏳️‍⚧️❤️ Whether you are living as your true self, or you are forced to hide who you are, please know that you are loved. We aren't backing down & will stand strong against continued attacks from Trump & the GOP. #TransDayOfVisibility
Donald Trump doesn't care about our workers. He wants to keep working people down, wages stagnant, and power and wealth concentrated at the very top.   As a proud dues-paying member of Workers United, I know firsthand that unions lead to better wages and benefits.   This is union busting, period.
Trump moves to strip unionization rights from most federal workers.
