Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
From the administration that decries spending, over $45 million to use troops for Trump's birthday party is hypocritical at best.
This parade is reminiscent of Russia and North Korea. Despite Trump's envy of them, our military's strength speaks for itself—no dictator-style fanfare necessary.
I’m heartbroken by last night’s attacks in Minnesota. There is no place for political violence in our country.
My thoughts are with the families of Representative Hortman and Senator Hoffman, and with the people of Minnesota during this tragic time.
DHS agents just wrestled a sitting U.S. Senator to the ground for asking a question on behalf of his constituents.
It’s disgraceful. This is Trump’s America.
Earlier this week, RFK Jr. purged every single expert from the CDC's vaccine advisory committee. He has already started replacing these health experts with anti-science, anti-vaccine cronies.
I joined my Democratic colleagues in demanding that he reverse this dangerous decision.
WE'RE HIRING: My district office in Aurora, Illinois is hiring a Congressional Fellow for a two year paid contract. Applicants must be a veteran, Gold Star family member, or an active-duty spouse.
To apply, visit: www.usajobs.gov/job/836975000
Dreamers are our coworkers, classmates, neighbors, and valued members of our communities. For 13 years, DACA has allowed them to live freely in the only country most of them have ever known.
We must continue to fight for a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers.
As Congress' only PhD physicist, here's what you need to know about Trump's Brain Drain.
RFK Jr. just fired every single expert from the CDC's vaccine advisory committee so he can replace them with his anti-science, anti-vax cronies. This is a gut punch to public health.
Under this administration, more Americans will die from preventable diseases.
Last month, the Trump Administration abruptly canceled a $5.6 million student mental health grant for Crystal Lake District 47—funding that passed with bipartisan support in Congress.
I took to the House floor to stand up for the students of Crystal Lake and to call out Republicans' hypocrisy.
Eid Mubarak to our Muslim neighbors in #IL11 and across the world!
I wish everyone celebrating a peaceful time of reflection and togetherness.
Today, I'm wearing orange for National Gun Violence Awareness Day.
While we honor the lives lost to senseless gun violence, it's past time for Congress to enact commonsense gun laws to make our communities safer.
As we all watch Trump and Elon fall out in real time, don't forget the damage that has already been done. DOGE raided the sensitive information of millions of Americans.
My Republican colleagues should join me in calling for transparency from Trump about what Elon was up to.
Recently, my staff and I have heard from many constituents concerned about law abiding immigrants getting caught up in Trump's chaotic immigration policies and intimidation tactics.
It’s important to know your rights:
Head Start provides high-quality early childhood education for hundreds of thousands of children across the country.
Abruptly closing Head Start offices will take vital support away from children who need it most. I joined my colleagues to demand answers from RFK Jr. about this reckless decision.

The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office just ran the numbers on Republicans' budget. Here's what it said.
Happy Pride Month! Let's recognize the brave LGBTQ+ individuals who began Pride as a protest for their rights.
As we celebrate the progress the LGBTQ+ community has made, let us not lose sight of the work that still has to be done!
My thoughts are with the victims and their families following yesterday’s horrific antisemitic attack in Boulder, Colorado.
This cannot become the new normal. We must continue to stand united against antisemitism and hate in all its forms.
As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, let's recommit to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and expanding access to resources.
Remember, you are not alone. Call 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or message them at 988lifeline.org.
