House Republicans have slashed funding that would have helped reduce sewage overflows in Cahokia Heights, improve public transit in Champaign, replace service lines in Harristown, and much more. Today, I heard from folks leading these critical projects just how damaging these cuts could be.

With the news that the Social Security field office in Alton may be relocating, I was glad to have the chance to meet with local seniors to hear their concerns and share how I’m fighting to protect the benefits they’ve earned.

We recently got news that DOGE is going to be making cuts to offices that administer Social Security, including here in Alton. I'm demanding answers from the Trump administration about what this means for seniors getting their hard-earned benefits.

I’m a cosponsor of Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick and @golden.house.gov’s Protect America’s Workforce Act - a bipartisan bill to restore collective bargaining rights for federal workers. We will keep fighting back against this administration’s blatant union-busting.

Nikki Budzinski@budzinski.house.govApr 14(source)

I joined @durbin.senate.gov in calling out the reckless decision by HHS to rip away $125 million in federal funding from Illinois health departments. I won’t stand by while Secretary Kennedy puts the health and safety of Central & Southern Illinoisans at risk.

The top question I get from farmers in my district is “What’s going on with the Farm Bill?” Let’s talk about it.

It's been more than 15 years since the last increase in the federal minimum wage - that’s unacceptable. No one working 40 hours a week should live in poverty, which is why I’m proud to support the #RaiseTheWage Act!

Nikki Budzinski@budzinski.house.govApr 11(source)

The VA’s VASP program is a lifeline, helping veterans stay in their homes if they face hard times. I joined my colleagues in a letter to VA Secretary Collins calling on him to reverse his decision to end VASP and protect tens of thousands of veterans from foreclosure.

As egg prices hit a record high this week, House Republicans passed a budget that includes $230 billion in cuts to SNAP. We should be working together to lower costs – not ripping food away from working families.

Helping St. Clair County recover from the 2022 floods is one of my top priorities. I’m pleased to announce that we just secured $30 million of federal disaster aid for Cahokia Heights, Caseyville, East St. Louis, Dupo and East Carondelet! Read more at: www.bnd.com/news/local/a...

DOGE is a serious threat to our farmers. I joined @lcv.org to talk about how we’re fighting to protect critical conservation programs that help Illinois growers and producers increase yields, save on input costs, and protect the environment.

Did you change your name when you got married? The SAVE Act will make it harder for you to vote.

Republicans in Congress just passed a bill to allow big banks to charge their customers higher junk fees and take advantage of working families at a time when costs are already way too high. I voted no.

It was great to meet with members of the International Union of Elevator Constructors from my district! I’m proud to be their ally in protecting worker safety and standing up for collective bargaining rights.
