As the Representative for Belvidere, I'm thrilled that Stellantis is following through on their agreement with the UAW. This victory is a direct result of the solidarity of workers on the picket lines and UAW members nationwide.
No matter how many lies Trump spreads, the science is clear: The climate crisis is real and it will take global cooperation to solve it. With one stroke of his pen, Trump has set us back decades in protecting our planet for future generations.
President Trump said at his inauguration that he would sign a barrage of executive orders to grant his administration new powers to promote fossil fuels and to withdraw support for renewable energy, signaling that the U.S. government would no longer fight climate change.
It’s a scientific fact that the World Health Organization has saved tens of millions of lives. This action puts Americans at risk when the next pandemic inevitably strikes. So much for making America "healthy again.”
I attended today’s inauguration out of respect for the Office of the President. But as I sat in the Capitol Rotunda, I found it impossible to escape the historical significance of a convicted felon being sworn in as president…
"The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice." On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we honor Dr. King by continuing his fight for equality & justice for all. As we celebrate his life, may we build upon his legacy & continue our work toward a more perfect union.
Thanks to President Biden and Congressional Democrats, starting in 2026, the prices of ten of the most expensive prescription drugs will be slashed for Medicare recipients — with 15 more added in 2027. Every single Republican in Congress voted against these savings.
Thank you, President Biden, for affirming that the #ERA is the law of the land. It is long overdue for women to be fully recognized as equal under the law. This is a victory for equality and a significant step forward in strengthening women's rights across America.
Thousands of Californians have lost their homes and livelihoods as a result of these devastating wildfires. It's despicable that Speaker Johnson and President-elect Trump are politicizing the federal aid CA desperately needs to rebuild. We must pass federal aid without conditions. Period.
Absolutely horrific. My thoughts are with everyone affected by the devastating wildfires in California. I'm grateful to the first responders for rushing into harm's way to save lives.
At least 6 wildfires are burning across Los Angeles County. 5 people have been killed, and officials expect death toll to rise. Follow live updates.
No one should have their financial future ruined by a medical emergency. Thanks to the CFPB, medical debt will no longer negatively impact your credit score — making it easier to buy a house, rent an apartment, or apply for a loan. This is great news!
You can't choose to uphold the Constitution only when your candidate wins. Today, Congress will come together to certify the results of this previous election—just as we have for nearly 150 years, and as we must continue to do for generations to come.
