Congress, having the power of the purse, has an opportunity to respond to the murder and baseless arrests of American citizens, the cruel and inhumane conditions detainees are subjected to, and the denial of due process to both citizens and non-citizens. (1/2)

This morning, I attended arguments at the Supreme Court in the Trump Administration's case to fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve.
To be clear, Lisa Cook did nothing wrong, and the independence of the Federal Reserve must be maintained.
But this case is about so much more than that.
It’s been a year since Trump has taken office.
Costs are up across health care, energy, and groceries.
Spread some love this Valentine’s Day! My office is collecting Valentine’s cards for local veterans, and we need your help to make their day special. Drop off your cards by February 5th and join us in honoring those who’ve served our country.
Donald Trump doesn’t hate clean energy; he hates energy you can actually afford. Clean energy is affordable energy. The president wants you to pay more while fossil fuels destroy your health and our planet.
After learning the Trump Admin planned to cut funding for mental health care & addiction services, I joined colleagues in furiously lobbying HHS to change course.
I'm proud to see that our efforts were successful, but it's shameful that this was considered at all.

Alongside Sen. Dick Durbin and Sen. Tammy Duckworth, I’m pleased to announce $4M in federal funding for the College of DuPage to expand short-term, for-credit aviation and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) workforce certificates.
The Trump Administration will no longer consider whether or not you will die from pollution when setting emissions standards. Absurd.

Second, for the City of Palos Heights, I secured $1.1 million to upgrade the 80th Avenue Pump Station, providing both Palos Heights and Northwestern Community Hospital with a dependable secondary water source. (3/3)
First, for Elmhurst University, I secured $950,000 to purchase health sciences research equipment. This funding supports students and faculty conducting important research with the potential to advance the field of health sciences and prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. (2/3)
I’m pleased to share two new federal investments that strengthen education, infrastructure, and public health in our community. (1/3)
Mark your calendars! This Thursday at 6:30pm CT, I’m hosting a telephone town hall. Don’t miss it.

My heart breaks for the Jewish community of Jackson, Mississippi. We must do more to stop the increasing acts of antisemitism seen across the country. Hate has no place in America.

Congress must address Kristi Noem's failed leadership, up to and including impeachment. But that alone is insufficient.
The entire chain of command who have enabled a culture of murder must face justice.
Yesterday, ICE murdered an American citizen.
The only way to prevent future horrors is to prosecute and ensure full accountability up the entire chain of command.
Today, the House will vote on an extension of ACA tax credits that have saved families thousands of dollars.
Speaker Johnson did everything in his power to prevent this vote, but we've beaten him.
This is an important win, but our work doesn't stop until it is law.

As we have seen in Illinois, when ICE descends on a city, chaos & violence follow.
ICE shot & killed a woman in Minneapolis. There is no justification for their actions. Do not believe their lies claiming otherwise. All involved must face justice & accountability. Anything less is unacceptable.
The President of the United States is intentionally harming Illinois children for purely political reasons. Shame on him. We will fight this every step of the way.

Speaker Johnson refuses to put the plaque up as he tries to rewrite history about what happened that day.
I proudly display this plaque outside my office. (2/2)
