Trump’s ambush of our ally, Ukrainian President Zelensky in the Oval Office last week was a travesty for U.S. international standing and credibility & a triumph for our adversary Vladimir Putin. The US must always stand for freedom & democracy around the world.

Let me remind you that it was just four years ago when Capitol police officers were violently attacked by a mob of election deniers emboldened by Trump. #JointAddress
War on woke? How about you lower costs for the American people. #JointAddress
The CHIPS and Science Act funded cutting-edge research, brought thousands of strong, good-paying jobs back to the U.S., and powered a resurgence in American semiconductor manufacturing. #JointAddress
Trump's nonsense tariffs on Canada and Mexico will make everything from cars to eggs more expensive and will drive up costs for families by nearly $2,000 per year. #JointAddress
Trump wants to gut your lifesaving benefits to give tax cuts to billionaires and the ultra-wealthy.
Let's not forget who was in the front row at his inauguration... #TaxTheRich #JointAddress
The United States is and has always been a nation of immigrants, and our country and economy benefit from immigration.
To all those immigrants facing unjust harassment from federal law enforcement, please be sure to know your rights. #JointAddress

Social Security is your hard-earned money; it is not an entitlement. President Donald Trump and his unelected billionaire sidekick Elon Musk think they alone can decide if you get your Social Security check.
They had better think again. #JointAddress
Billionaire Elon Musk and DOGE have gutted the Department of Veterans Affairs, leaving countless unemployed and restricting access to critical care for millions of veterans. #JointAddress

Trump’s so-called energy emergency declaration is just an excuse to enrich the fossil fuel industry.
He plans to override the permitting process to greenlight LNG projects, and oil and gas pipelines that threaten our drinking water and environmental health. #JointAddress
Trans rights are human rights.
Trump is undoing civil protections, banning gender-affirming care, and preventing transgender servicemembers from serving our country.
To my trans constituents, I won't stop fighting to ensure that you can live freely and authentically. #JointAddress
Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement will increase prices for Americans & expose us to more of the devastating impacts of climate change.
He has repeatedly shown us that he is more interested in scoring points in culture wars than championing policies that lower costs. #JointAddress
I encourage every American to take a look at these graphs. This is the reality of the Trump administration. Tax hikes for the poor and tax cuts for the rich.#JointAddress
Tonight, President Trump will claim he is making life better for all Americans. Don't believe the lies.
The only people in line to benefit are the billionaires set to receive a $4.5 trillion tax break funded by cuts to the lifesaving programs hardworking families rely on. #JointAddress
I have heard from thousands of constituents who want me to resist. That is why I will not attend Donald Trump's joint address tonight.
When undocumented individuals pay taxes, they are paying into a system without becoming eligible for benefits.
Our economy is stronger thanks to their contributions.
The privacy of all tax returns is protected by federal law.
We won't allow Trump and his cronies to weaponize the IRS.
It got understandably buried w/ Zelensky news, but thought our story ysd was pretty big -
Trump DHS pushing for the IRS to produce taxpayer info to assist w/ deportations
IRS officials pointing to law saying taxpayer data can only be used for tax purposes

Supporting President Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people isn’t just about their fight for sovereignty, but part of a broader fight for freedom and democracy in Europe and around the world.
In the US, we stand for democracy.
Today, Donald Trump chose to side with dictators.
I'm introducing the Social Security Expansion Act with @repvalhoyle.bsky.social, @sanders.senate.gov, & @warren.senate.gov.
Our bill extends the trust fund’s solvency for 75 years & expands benefits by $2,400 a year.
All Americans deserve to retire with security & dignity after a lifetime of work.
Trump and his billionaire friends are trying to enrich themselves at your expense.
As we speak, they are firing Social Security staff and closing down offices in communities across the country.
We must expand Social Security benefits, not cut them, and I have a bill to do just that.
More from @schakowsky.house.gov and I here: www.youtube.com/shorts/ZiuA6...
Trump and his puppet master Musk went rogue and illegally froze billions of dollars of congressionally allocated funds, leaving many agencies and organizations scrambling.
Even after this was overruled in court, nearly $1.9 billion remains unaccounted for.
The people of Illinois demand answers.
