My heart aches over the passing of my dear friend and former colleague Barbara Flynn Currie, a pioneering leader and the first woman Majority Leader in the Illinois House.

‘Do not call’ means do not call. Period. But illegitimate and intrusive robocalls are only getting worse.
Our bill empowers victims to hold scammers accountable after just one illegal call.
We need strong, pro-consumer guardrails now.
Every year, thousands of people in the U.S. are newly diagnosed with ALS.
Thanks to my friends, Brian and Sandra, for speaking about the importance of reauthorizing the ACT for ALS bill!
This legislation will fund ALS research so people can access life-saving treatments. Let's get it done!
Now Congress must finish the job and restore fairness for fans.
A jury just confirmed what fans already knew: Live Nation and Ticketmaster abused their power and stuck consumers with an unfair ticketing system.
My bipartisan TICKET Act would require all-in pricing, ban speculative ticketing, crack down on deceptive resale practices, and protect refunds.
On Yom HaShoah, we remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust and honor the resilience of the survivors.
As antisemitism rises around the world, we must speak out, educate, and stand united against hate in all its forms.
Never again. Never forget.
Trump’s war is driving up gas prices and Americans are footing the bill.
More chaos overseas means higher costs at home. We deserve better than this.
Just two weeks ago, @warren.senate.gov and I called on the FTC to investigate corporations exploiting rising fuel costs to pad profits.
This is exactly the kind of behavior we warned about.
Consumers deserve fairness, not corporate greed.
Someone this unstable, whose behavior endangers the nation, shouldn't remain in office.
The 25th Amendment must be invoked.
If Trump’s Cabinet is too cowardly to act, Congress must do its duty and begin impeachment proceedings before more damage is done.
Constituents are calling my office in tears. They are scared.
This is what dangerous rhetoric does. It spreads fear and uncertainty.
Republicans must stand with Democrats and speak out against this unhinged madness. Silence is cowardice.
Wishing a happy and peaceful Easter to all who celebrate. 🌷
May this day bring a moment to pause, reflect, and appreciate the people and blessings in our lives.
Medicaid is a lifesaver! Seniors, kids, pregnant people, and those with disabilities depend on it.
Republican cuts have forced millions off care.
This #MedicaidAwarenessMonth we will defend Medicaid and fight to protect health care for all.
Pam Bondi’s loyalty was to Trump, not to justice.
She put politics above victims and power above principle. Her firing is overdue.
The work for transparency and accountability is far from over.
To everyone in our community celebrating Passover, I’m wishing you a joyful and meaningful holiday.
As you gather with family and loved ones around the Seder table, may this time of reflection, tradition, and renewal bring you comfort and hope.
Chag Pesach Sameach!
When millions of people lose health care and thousands of workers lose jobs, that’s not ‘America First.’ It’s failure.
We can and must do better. Collectively, we can come together and choose a different path.
To the trans community: You are seen, you are heard, and you are loved. 🏳️⚧️❤️
No one should have to hide who they are.
I will always fight to protect your rights and stand strong against hatred and bigotry. #TransDayOfVisibility
No person should be targeted for their religion.
The Iranian government’s relentless assault on its Baha’i minority is an outrage that demands immediate action.
The US and our allies must use every diplomatic tool available to hold Iran accountable and end this hate-fueled persecution now.
Every time we come close to real solutions, Republicans find a new way to stall, obstruct, and move the goalposts.
Enough is enough.
Families deserve a government that works for them, not manufactured crises and endless delays.
Air travelers are stranded. Communities need disaster relief funds.
We have a deal to resolve these problems, but Republicans are blocking it to boost ICE funding and continue their inhumane enforcement efforts.
Stop the obstruction. Do your job.
Safe staffing saves lives!
I just introduced legislation with @doggett.house.gov to set strong nursing home staffing standards and ensure every resident gets the high-quality care they deserve.
