IMPORTANT UPDATE 🚨✏️
In May, I hosted an education-focused town hall to stand against the cruel funding cuts to East St. Louis High School.
They just got word that the funds have been deposited into the district's account. This proves that when our community comes together, we can make a difference.
The Big, Ugly Bill is one of the most harmful pieces of legislation in American history. I wrote an explainer of the top 10 ways Republicans are ripping off working families through this catastrophic bill.

The Supreme Court just made it harder for Americans on Medicaid to access healthcare at Planned Parenthood. This dangerous decision threatens access to cancer screenings, birth control, prenatal care, and other reproductive services for millions of women.
The workers who make U.S. Steel profitable deserve a seat at the table – especially Granite City @steelworkers.bsky.social who've been sidelined too long. With Nippon pledging $14 billion to plants in Indiana, Pennsylvania, & Minnesota, we’re calling for Granite City to receive its fair share too.
Today is #EqualityDay, marking three landmark SCOTUS decisions that advanced LGBTQ+ rights – including marriage equality. As we celebrate these pivotal moments of progress, we aren’t backing down from the ongoing fight to ensure full equality for LGBTQ+ Americans.
From Illinois to Maryland, we need to expand our broadband infrastructure to keep rural Americans connected. For our fourth #NewDemsOnTheRoad stop, @repaprildelaney.bsky.social and I had the chance to host a broadband-focused roundtable to see how we can get this done for our communities.
There’s a lot of terrible policies in the GOP tax package — and I’m especially concerned that the Senate version would give President Trump $100 million to execute a strategy to gut the federal workforce. This is a direct attack on unionized workers and the services my constituents rely on.
Billionaires don’t need another tax break. I’ll never support a tax package that funds handouts for the top 10% on the backs of working families.
The cuts to clean energy tax credits in the Republican tax package take us in the wrong direction. Eliminating these incentives will hurt the union workforce and force families to pay even more to keep the lights on.
Energy prices are way too high, and we need an all hands on deck approach to lower costs for families and small businesses. That means investing in biofuels and bringing more clean energy online so that we produce more of our power here at home – not overseas.
Too many veterans fall through the cracks during the transition from active duty to civilian life. From housing and employment to mental health services, we need real improvements. I was glad to hear from experts today about how we can make transition assistance programs work better for our vets.
If the Republican tax package becomes law, 10.9 million Americans will lose their health insurance, emergency rooms will be overwhelmed, and hospitals will close. Whether or not you are on Medicaid, these cuts will affect your access to health care.
Granite City has been producing steel for 128 years—that’s 128 years of sweat, strength, and skill passed down through generations. These workers deserve a seat at the table and real commitments that Granite City will see investment as part of the Nippon Steel deal.
I’m proud to be an original cosponsor of the Women’s Health Protection Act – critical legislation to guarantee access to reproductive care and codify reproductive rights for Americans nationwide.
It’s been three years since the Supreme Court ruled to roll back reproductive rights with their devastating Dobbs decision. As a member of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I’m fighting every day to restore the protections of Roe and ensure reproductive freedom for all.
In 2025, reliable internet isn’t a luxury – it’s a necessity. It was great to join @RepAprilDelaney.bsky.social for our fourth #NewDemsOnTheRoad stop where we talked about solutions to expand broadband access and keep our rural communities connected.
Praying for the safety of all our troops in Qatar, Iraq and across the Middle East.
Republicans in Congress are trying to roll back clean energy tax credits – a move that would eliminate thousands of good-paying union jobs and raise energy costs for American families. I joined IBEW, LiUNA, and the Ironworkers in calling out this betrayal of working people.
