Donald Trump’s reaction to the nationwide No Kings protests is to target more immigrants in the cities with the largest crowds, like Chicago.

Another embarrassing example of how Donald Trump’s & Elon Musk’s DOGE actions were reckless, shortsighted, and haphazard.
While Donald Trump creates instability in our economy, Republicans are working to cut food & health care programs like SNAP and Medicaid.
The so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” will hurt hard working Americans to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
Plain and simple.
Violence and hate have NO place in America. Leaders on both sides of the aisle must speak out and condemn these violent acts, which go against everything this country stands for.
Absolutely sickened to hear of the assassination and attempted assassination of two Minnesota state lawmakers and their spouses in their homes last night. Loretta and I are praying for them and their families.
Since 2012, more than 825,000 people have participated in the DACA program.
They’re police officers, teachers, nurses, and Americans in every way except for immigration status.
They contribute $140 BILLION in spending power to our economy, as well as $40 BILLION in taxes.
Resume DACA processing.
It’s time to start providing this relief to Dreamers again.
Anti-immigrant extremists have attacked DACA since the day President Obama established the program, trying to tie it up in the courts.
But DACA is overwhelmingly successful, and a judge recently opened the door for the Administration to resume processing applications.
472,000 Illinoisans would be at risk of losing some of their SNAP benefits because of the Republicans' so-called Big Beautiful Bill.
Republicans are taking food off the table of working families to give the wealthiest Americans a tax break.
It's unconscionable.
The strong-arm tactics used against my colleague and friend, Senator Alex Padilla, in response to his peaceful conduct should convince all of us that the Administration’s goal is about more than deporting dangerous immigrants. They are determined to suppress even peaceful dissent.
BREAKING: House Republicans just passed President Trump’s senseless clawbacks of funding already approved by Congress for public broadcasting and foreign aid.
These cuts will strip funding for principled, local journalism and our national security interests.
It is unacceptable and un-American to manhandle and handcuff a United States Senator who was simply doing his job.
We need immediate answers from law enforcement about what happened, and there must be assurances from the Administration that this will never happen again.
Senator Hawley and I will continue pushing for Senate passage of this bill, and I look forward to the day it becomes law.
This bill would finally pierce the broad immunity granted by Section 230 and open the courtroom to victims of online child sexual exploitation, as well as bolster protections and resources for survivors.
I’m proud to have worked with Democrats and Republicans alike to highlight the failures of Big Tech and draft commonsense proposals like our STOP CSAM Act to put kids’ safety first.
Big Tech’s pockets run deep, and social media companies are lobbying against any bill that would bolster accountability.
Their influence is weakening.
BIG NEWS. The STOP CSAM Act just advanced unanimously out of committee!
This is a momentous step toward finally holding Big Tech accountable for harm it has caused kids and families.
Failed U.S. Attorney nominee Ed Martin is already pledging to further undermine trust in the Justice Department.
He’s wrongly advocating that Trump pardon his supporters and donors, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, and violent criminals.
It’s a disgrace.
I am proud to represent the thousands of Ukrainian Americans that call Illinois home.
I welcomed IL members of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America in my office to discuss this Administration’s failure to end the war in Ukraine and the need to pass a strong Russia sanctions bill.
After Ed Martin’s failed nomination to be U.S. Attorney for D.C., President Trump installed him in non-Senate-confirmed roles at DOJ.
He’s promising to abuse his power to help President Trump’s friends while punishing his enemies.
Once again, I’m pressing Attorney General Bondi on his conduct.
