Happy Thanksgiving, Illinois!
Here's a conversation topic for Thanksgiving dinner: how much more expensive things have gotten since last year.
Excited that Illinois is helping drive our nation's digital ID infrastructure forward!
iPhone users in Illinois can now upload their driver’s licenses and state IDs for faster, more secure usage at some airports, restaurants, and more. Learn more here:

I was proud to secure $900,000 in federal funding for the Naperville Riverwalk's Eagle Street Gateway. The completion of this project marks an important milestone in making the Riverwalk more accessible to everyone!

Denying aid to families after severe storms just to play political games is inexcusable—especially considering Illinois sends far more to Washington in federal taxes than we get in return.
Today, I led 21 of my House Financial Services Committee colleagues in asking the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) to assess the vulnerability of the U.S. financial system to a potential AI bubble.

We cannot allow calling for the hanging of elected officials to become the new normal. This is a new low, even for Trump.

Las Rosas Permanent Supportive Housing will convert a former school into 20 units for those experiencing homelessness or living with disabilities.
I was proud to secure $3 million in federal funding to support AID, Hesed House, and The Neighbor Project in bringing this project to life.
During Trump's first term, the CIA concluded that Saudi Prince MBS ordered the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Apparently to Trump, that’s red carpet-worthy.
My statement on my vote to release the Epstein files.
My IL colleagues and I released a fact check on DHS' lies. Read it here: www.durbin.senate.gov/imo/media/do...
Operation Midway Blitz isn’t law enforcement — it’s a campaign of fear and intimidation. Federal agents, under Trump’s orders, have used violence against peaceful communities, torn families apart, and detained people without due process. Now they’re spreading lies to cover up these abuses.
Tomorrow, I will vote to advance the release of the full Epstein files. This vote is about bringing justice to victims. No one, no matter how wealthy or powerful, is above the law.
It's always an honor to meet and connect with veterans across our community.
On Veterans Day, I stopped by events in Romeoville, Woodridge, and Lemont. Last week, I joined the opening ceremony for the Vietnam Veterans Wall in Naperville.
During the shutdown, Trump did everything he could to prevent families, children, and seniors from getting their full SNAP benefits—driving more people to local food banks.
Last week, I met with the Northern Illinois Food Bank to hear how they’re managing the surge in demand.
Eight Senate Republicans slipped a $500,000 payout for each of themselves into the government funding bill because they were investigated for their possible involvement in January 6.
They can find money for themselves, but none for affordable health care.

Today, I led 25 colleagues in sending a bipartisan letter calling on DHS and USCIS to ensure that Ukrainian families in the Uniting for Ukraine (U4U) program are not unfairly burdened by processing delays and surprise fees.

My statement on the Senate government funding deal.
Earlier today, my Democratic colleagues and I stood on the House steps to reaffirm our commitment to fighting for affordable health care.
The Republican funding bill does nothing to address soaring premiums. I will be voting NO.
