As we mark the 81st anniversary of D-Day, we honor the brave American servicemembers and Allied forces who stormed the beaches of Normandy, fought and died to save the free world from Nazi oppression.   We owe a debt to these heroes we could never repay.

If it was really about celebrating military families, we could put $30 million toward helping them offset the cost of their child care, food assistance and tuition…

But it isn't. Trump is throwing himself a $30 million birthday parade just to stroke his own ego.

Medicaid is the backbone of maternity care in America. It's a lifeline for rural and low-income expecting moms to have safe, healthy pregnancies and births. Republicans cutting Medicaid would lead to countless preventable pregnancy-related deaths. That is not "pro-life."

You're pregnant and scared. You're having a medical emergency. Your health depends on an abortion. But you may not get one because Trump would rather you be left to die than ensure hospitals perform the live-saving care you need. Trump's America is a woman's living nightmare.
Associated Press: Trump administration revokes guidance requiring hospitals to provide emergency abortions

This is what conmen do. They sell you on a package of lies, then burn you the first chance they get.   Trump promised less government spending and lower costs.   His big, ugly bill would explode the deficit and make health insurance more unaffordable for millions of Americans.
CBS: Trump budget bill would increase deficit by $2.4 trillion with 10.9 million more uninsured by 2034, CBO says

When I was growing up, my dad lost his job and we relied on food stamps to survive.
 
With Trump’s tariffs raising the costs of food, Republicans' big, ugly bill would slash SNAP.
 
In Trump’s America, families lose. Every time.

Horrified by the terror attack against peaceful protesters in Boulder, Colorado. My heart goes out to the victims and their loved ones in the wake of this unspeakable tragedy. Hate of any kind has no place in our country. This vicious antisemitism has to stop.

Today, we remember the victims of the Tulsa Race Massacre—a dark, sinister chapter of our history when white supremacists killed hundreds of thriving business owners simply because they were Black. It's on us to learn from our past and ensure this tragedy never repeats itself.

Illinois is a leader in quantum technology—a perfect place for more business investments from our Indo-Pacific partners abroad.   And I’m as committed as ever to making sure the whole world knows it. chicago.suntimes.com/politics/202...
Sen. Tammy Duckworth heads to Taiwan, Singapore in bid to 'close the deal' for quantum campus
Duckworth told the Sun-Times her main goal in Taiwan will be to push Foxconn to invest in the soon-to-be-constructed Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park on the South Side.

A federal court—including a judge Trump himself appointed—has spoken: Trump does not have the authority to set these outrageous tariffs that are sending costs skyrocketing and tanking retirement accounts. It’s time for the wannabe tyrant to end these devastating trade wars now.

This Memorial Day, it’s an honor to join Veterans and servicemembers in Illinois to remember the brave souls who've laid down their lives for our nation.   May we all live in a way that honors their sacrifice.
Senator Duckworth speaks to a crowd of Veterans, Gold Star families and their loved ones at the South Side Memorial Day Ceremony.

Memorial Day is a day to remember the fallen servicemembers who bravely answered the call not for themselves—but for democracy. 
It's up to us to honor their sacrifice by continuing that commitment to defend our Constitution and freedoms.

George Floyd should be alive today. Five years after his murder, we recommit to fighting for a world where no Black American ever has to worry that they could be killed by a police officer sworn to protect and serve.

Today, we remember Uvalde. We remember the 19 children and 2 teachers who were mercilessly gunned down. The kids who hid underneath their dead classmates to survive. The parents who had to submit DNA to identify their own babies. We need an assault weapons ban. Now.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govMay 22(source)
Republicans’ big, ugly bill explodes the deficit and makes the largest cuts to Medicaid and SNAP in history—   Selling out those most in need to hand out monstrous tax cuts to those who don’t need them.   It’s fiscally irresponsible. Morally wrong. It must not become law.
