Republicans want to cut $230 billion from SNAP benefits. Costs are rising, and more people are going hungry. We should be expanding basic assistance programs, not abandoning those who need them most.

268,901 people in #IL01 could lose their health care because of this heartless Republican budget.
Tomorrow, I’ll fight to protect my constituents and all Americans who rely on Medicaid from these harmful cuts!
Everyone has the right to due process, regardless of legal status. Breaking up families and deporting hard-working, law-abiding individuals is lacking compassion and unjust.
As we honor our mothers, we must also recognize that too many are being failed by a system that should protect them. We will continue fighting for mothers today, tomorrow, and every day for their right to safe, dignified care, bodily autonomy, compassionate treatment, and healthy equity in America.
Wishing all moms a Happy Mother’s Day.
Today we celebrate your love, your sacrifices, and the strength you show every single day.
I thank God for the new Pope Leo XIV. If anyone were to right a world going in the wrong direction, it would be someone from the South Side of Chicago.
As we honor those who have dedicated their lives to ensuring the well-being of others, we celebrate leaders like Mary Eliza Mahoney, the first Black professionally trained nurse in the United States.
During #NationalNursesWeek, we recognize the hardworking and caring nurses of #IL01. Thank you for your dedication to your patients and commitment to providing lifesaving care at every stage of life.
I am deeply troubled by the dismissal of Dr. Carla Hayden, a trailblazing librarian and the first African American and woman to serve as Librarian of Congress. Her leadership modernized access to knowledge for all. This is a loss for intellectual freedom and public service.
This week I had the pleasure of meeting with the Illinois Road and Transportation Builders Association. We discussed legislative priorities for FY26 surface transportation and how Congress can support road and transit builders in Illinois.
We are a nation that cherishes democratic values, embraces diversity, and strives for peace—these are not 'woke' values.
As we celebrate #TeacherAppreciationWeek, we recognize the incredible legacy of educators like Mary McLeod Bethune, who believed in the transformative power of education to create a more just and equitable society.
Today, I voted NO on renaming the Gulf of Mexico. While rights are under attack, healthcare is at risk, jobs are disappearing, and groceries are too expensive, House Republicans are busy playing word games—this does nothing to address the real struggles Americans are facing.
The US-Africa Policy Working Group held a briefing today about the dismantling of UASID and the impact of President Trump’s foreign aid freeze.
Joy to the world! Today is a day of profound grace, pride, and hope. For the first time in the history of the Catholic Church, the city of Chicago—our city—has given the world a Pope.
Congratulations, Your Holiness. Chicago stands with you. And the world walks with you.
Today, I voted NO on multiple China-related bills that escalate economic warfare. History shows us: economic conflict breeds social unrest, which too often leads to physical war. We must pursue peace, diplomacy, and global cooperation—not provocation. #PeaceThroughJustice
I met with Hon. Wendell K. Jones, Ambassador of Bahamas to the US, to discuss strengthening economic and security ties between our two countries.
Today, as part of @houseagdems.bsky.social, I joined moms, veterans, and farmers to oppose the Republican plan to cut SNAP. We made it clear we won’t support a budget that harms America’s kids, seniors, and veterans.
The not-guilty verdict in Tyre Nichols' killing is a gut punch to justice.
Trump’s war on police accountability—gutting reforms, shielding brutality—led us here.
Pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.
#JusticeForTyre #PoliceReformNow
