I’m disgusted and outraged by reports of ICE terrorizing students, families, and community members today in Evanston, Skokie, and across the 9th District. My team and I are monitoring the situation and coordinating with local partners to protect our neighbors.

When the government can’t even let kids trick-or-treat without fear, it’s not about safety, it’s about cruelty. Period.
Hunger doesn’t take a break during a government shutdown.
Congressional Republicans are blocking access to SNAP, hurting those who need help the most.
SNAP is a lifeline, not a political bargaining chip. Now more than ever, we must prioritize the needs of working Americans. The time to act is now.
In just days, Americans will see their health care costs skyrocket because of the GOP’s reckless government shutdown.
It’s time Republicans end their taxpayer-funded vacation and get back to work.
Democrats are here fighting for working families — not billionaire donors.
If SNAP goes unfunded, Republicans are making the decision to take food away from people who need it most. We must do better. Thank you, @ilattygeneral.bsky.social.
A mother just called my office and was terrified. Her adult son with intellectual disabilities lives in a care facility and relies on SNAP to eat.
Trump and Speaker Johnson would rather let people suffer than actually do their jobs.
We are the richest country in the world at the richest moment in history. No person should go hungry.
Trump and Speaker Johnson can’t be bothered to show up to work while Americans' health insurance premiums skyrocket, and they struggle to put food on the table.
Families will starve, but don't worry, billionaires will still get their tax breaks.
Democratic members of Congress converged on Chicago to conduct oversight of DHS’s unlawful and unconstitutional actions.
We’re continuing to demand transparency, accountability, and respect for the rule of law.
Together, we must stand strong against Trump’s abuse of power.
Trump and Republicans have decided tearing down the White House to build a corporate ballroom is more important than lowering health care costs or paying federal workers.
Democrats are here and ready to fight for everyday Americans, not billionaire donors.
What happened to people over politics?
To all those in the 9th District, and across the Chicago area, it’s crucial that you KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
Save and share with your communities.

In the United States of America, we don’t bow down to a king. We vote. We protest. We run for office. That’s how power works here. #NoKings
Just a reminder that Speaker Johnson is keeping the government shut down to stop the release of the Epstein files.
Democrats stand ready to lower health costs, reopen the government, & deliver justice for Epstein's victims.
Speaker Johnson must stop dodging scandals & start delivering solutions.
Instead of working with Democrats to bring down costs, Republicans would rather keep the government shut down and side with their billionaire donors.
This a direct attack on our seniors and we must speak out.
Medicare open enrollment begins today, but health insurance premiums and deductibles are skyrocketing because Trump and Republicans refuse to prioritize affordable health care.
What happened to putting the American people first?
Trump & Congressional Republicans have decided that using $20 billion of taxpayer funds to bail out Trump's friends in Argentina is more important than working with Democrats to reopen the government.
Health insurance costs rising. Federal workers going unpaid. Food assistance programs running dry.
Immigrants are and always have been what makes our country great.
We will not be intimidated by the wannabe dictator in the White House, and we will not stand by as our community is ravaged.
No human being is illegal.
Chicago lost an icon.
Sister Jean embodied the heart and soul of Loyola and gave our city endless joy, wisdom, warmth, and unwavering faith.
Her legacy will live on in every life she touched. May her memory be a blessing.
Loyola University Chicago is greatly saddened to confirm the death of Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt, BVM. This is a tremendous loss of someone who touched the lives of so many people. We appreciate everyone’s thoughts & prayers during this difficult time. For more information: https://bit.ly/4o7eIUk
