Trump’s war in Iran sent gas prices skyrocketing to an average of $4.21 per gallon in Illinois. Hardworking Americans are paying the price for Trump’s reckless foreign policy every time at the gas station. Now, Trump wants another $80 billion to fund his war.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov5h ago(source)

There aren’t many people who understand the impact of gun violence like these community leaders. Maria, Diane, and Father Pfleger: thank you for your tireless work to end the gun violence epidemic. I am grateful to be in this work with each of you.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov23h ago(source)

Public health means safe neighborhoods, clean air and water, healthy food, mental health support, affordable healthcare, and freedom from gun violence. Every person, regardless of zipcode, deserves the best public health.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov1d ago(source)

Every empty seat at a family dinner table tells a story. Behind every gun violence statistic is a person who was loved and a family that has been forever changed. I will never stop fighting for policies and laws that will save lives.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov1d ago(source)

Eleven years ago, Obergefell affirmed that LOVE is LOVE and that every couple deserves equal protection under the law. Marriage equality changed lives for countless people, and I will always fight to protect those rights.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov1d ago(source)

As proud as I was four years ago to pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, I am equally as angry that the Trump administration is trying to undo all our progress. They are making it easier to illegally traffic guns and harder to investigate gun crimes. This will cost people their lives.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov2d ago(source)

Guns are the leading cause of death for children and teens in the US. That is absolutely unacceptable. It should shake Congress awake into action—but instead, Republicans are rolling back our progress and endangering our kids.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov2d ago(source)

When the Supreme Court gutted key voting protections in Shelby County v. Holder 13 years ago, Justice Ginsburg dissented and warned us. Now, SCOTUS has completely gutted the Voting Rights Act. This moment requires everyone to speak out loud and clear in defense of our democracy.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov2d ago(source)

It was wonderful to celebrate Juneteenth with the Southland Regional Mayors Black Caucus! I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together to bring progress, opportunity, and innovation to communities across the Southland.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov3d ago(source)

The list of lives stolen by gun violence is far too long. I carry the names of victims and their families with me every time I walk into Congress. Their memories deserve more than thoughts and prayers. They deserve action.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov3d ago(source)

Instead of lowering rent and mortgage costs, Trump is prioritizing election conspiracies and his own political survival over a bipartisan housing affordability bill. How on brand for the President.

Trump cancels plan to sign major housing bill as he fights with Congress over the SAVE Act

Just hours before heading to Capitol Hill, Trump called the big, bipartisan housing bill Republicans hope to run on in the fall “of minor importance.”

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov3d ago(source)

I stand with @replamonica.bsky.social. She’s facing 17 years in prison for doing her job, for conducting constitutional oversight and demanding answers from ICE. Black women have always stood up to protect our communities, and LaMonica does not stand alone.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov3d ago(source)

Four years after SCOTUS overturned Roe, women are still paying the price. Politicians should not make personal healthcare decisions for patients and their doctors. I’m fighting to restore reproductive freedom and protect your bodily autonomy.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov3d ago(source)

Every mother deserves high-quality, equitable care, regardless of zip code or skin color. I introduced the WELLS Act after my constituent, Mercedes Wells, who was discharged in active labor. We need to address inequalities in our healthcare system before it is too late.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov4d ago(source)

Millions of American families are struggling to afford basic necessities like groceries and housing. House Republicans gifted $70 billion to an unaccountable ICE, proving their priorities are completely out of touch with the real pain everyday people are feeling.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov4d ago(source)

I cannot talk about the gun violence epidemic without addressing suicide. Access to a gun triples the risk of death, yet Republicans continue to put gun lobby interests over safety. Their empty thoughts and prayers won't save lives. Passing meaningful reform will.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov4d ago(source)

Facing a massive $24k+ Social Security overpayment notice, my constituent reached out to my office for help. My team and I got a waiver approved, wiping out the entire balance. Stuck in federal red tape? Contact us ➡️www.robinkelly.house.gov/help

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov5d ago(source)

Last week, House Republicans released a $1 trillion Pentagon budget, the highest ever. They slashed Medicaid and are kicking 150k+ Illinoisians off food assistance. I am sick of Republicans trading basic human needs for Trump’s endless war.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov5d ago(source)

The damage from gun violence doesn't stop when the tape comes down. The trauma alters how our children walk to school and how families live their lives. We need federal resources to treat the long-term psychological weight of this epidemic on our communities.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.gov5d ago(source)

History shows what determination can do. Let’s keep fighting. ✊🏾🌈 🔽
