My heart is with the Bloomington community today after an incident of senseless gun violence took a young woman's life & injured many others.
In this tremendous grief, we must recommit ourselves to ending the gun violence epidemic & providing safety & security to everyone, especially students.

Together with former Congresswoman Cheri Bustos and @duckworth.senate.gov, we secured a $23.7 million grant for East Moline’s downtown revitalization project, & today I attended its ribbon cutting. This initiative will breathe new life into this town, & I am pleased to see it near completion.
Assault weapon bans work, & states and localities should have the ability to enact them if they choose.
I led my Democratic colleagues in submitting an amicus brief to the Supreme Court urging the justices to uphold the constitutionality of these responsible restrictions on military grade weaponry.
I was honored to receive a rebozo today from Mujeres Latinas while we discussed how we can continue to serve survivors, Latinas, and their families. I have been proud to support Mujeres Latinas’ important work, and I look forward to seeing how they will continue to empower survivors in the future.
Today marks the eighth month of Trump’s war with Iran—and eight months of false promises, higher gas prices, and instability in the Middle East. The President has failed in his stated objectives in this conflict, and the American people are paying the price.
I had the honor of visiting the newly opened Austin HOPE Center, a remarkable facility with high-quality pediatric and behavioral health services.
Thanks to the HOPE Center, children and families living on the West Side of Chicago have a welcoming space to seek care and community-based services.
Today, I attended a ribbon cutting to celebrate the reopening of the Reas Bridge in Decatur.
I’m proud to have played a part in securing funding for this reconstruction project that will make traveling through Macon County safer and more efficient.
Last week, I had the pleasure of attending the South Side Community Art Center’s Beam Raising Celebration. Since 1940, the Art Center has been a beacon of creativity and community in Chicago that celebrates Black artists and their contributions, and this expansion will continue to honor its legacy.
I was pleased to host Maria Corina Machado, whose coalition soundly won the 2024 election, at the United States Capitol earlier this year. Her return to Venezuela is welcome news that should decidedly move the country toward a clear path to free & fair elections next year.
What has happened to Jose is a tragedy. He should be released immediately and allowed to return to his family in Paris. As the son of an immigrant myself, I have been profoundly disturbed by Republicans’ blind support of President Trump’s cruel mass deportation campaign.
I joined Sen. Grassley in urging Secretaries Hegseth and Rubio to immediately obligate Congressionally appropriated funding for the Baltic Security Initiative.
In light of intensifying Russian aggression against the Baltics, accelerating the delivery of assistance under the BSI must be a priority.
MxD is consistently at the forefront of digital manufacturing, and I was honored to join their annual Member Summit today to speak about Illinois’ leadership in technologies of the future.
It was a pleasure to be part of Southland RISE’s Grantee Showcase and receive recognition for the Chicago HEAL Initiative.
Thanks to this partnership, our city is more resilient, and we’re shaping a better future for our kids.
While I am pleased Russia finally released Stephen Hubbard, he never should have been jailed in the first place.
Calling the war criminal Vladimir Putin a “humanitarian” is a disgrace to the tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians that Putin has killed as part of his brutal war.
