Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are under attack.
Older Americans have earned the right to retire with dignity and financial security.
That's why @dorismatsui.bsky.social and I just introduced the Older American Bill of Rights. schakowsky.house.gov/media/press-...

Our right to breathe clean air and use clean water is under threat from Trump's recent executive orders.
I stand with the youth plaintiffs from across the US who are filing Lighthiser v. Trump and challenging these orders in court.

Although Musk is leaving the administration, we must remain vigilant and continue fighting against his legacy of cutting effective programs and putting Americans at risk in the name of billionaire tax cuts.
Elon Musk's time at DOGE jeopardized the livelihoods of all Americans and made the world less safe. He worked hand in hand with Trump to rip away lifesaving programs from the American people so they could cut taxes for their billionaire friends.
Study after study shows that safe nurse-to-patient staffing ratios result in higher quality care for patients, lower health care costs, & a better workplace for nurses.
It's past time we act. I introduced legislation to give nurses the support they deserve. schakowsky.house.gov/media/press-...
Today, on Memorial Day, we come together as Americans to honor the brave men and women who answered the call of duty and lost their lives fighting to protect our nation and its ideals.
We are free because they were brave.
What did the House GOP do for the American people this week?
They proudly passed a bill to kick millions off their health care, slash the household income of people working paycheck to paycheck, and put school meals at risk for millions of kids.
But billionaires? They’re getting more tax cuts.
My heart goes out to Gerry’s family and loved ones during this difficult time. May his memory be a blessing.
I’m deeply saddened to hear about the passing of my dear friend and distinguished colleague, Congressman Gerry Connolly.
A true champion for human and workers’ rights, Gerry fought till the very end to create a better life for his constituents and people around the world.
Huge congratulations to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, who has made history as the first American, and most importantly Chicagoan, to lead the Catholic Church!
🚨Trump’s DOJ has arrested a sitting judge in Milwaukee.
This deeply alarming move is a glaring example of this admin’s lawlessness and authoritarian aspirations.

Today, we honor the 1.5 million Armenians killed during the Armenian Genocide, and the countless lives forever changed.
110 years later, we remember, we mourn, and we reaffirm our commitment to truth, justice, and remembrance.
Thank you for everything Senator Durbin. Our state and nation are better off because of your service and leadership. I love you ❤️
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.
The Honduran government must quickly investigate the forced disappearance of Max Castillo and investigate and ensure the safety of OFRANEH leaders!
I will always stand with the Garifuna people in Honduras and their pursuit for justice.

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 his DOJ are spitting in the face of a 9-0 SCOTUS ruling and a federal court order by failing to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s return to the U.S.
They must bring him home NOW!
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.
