Inflation is rising faster than wages for the first time in years. While you’re squeezed at the gas pump & grocery store, Republicans are trying to steal $1 billion from taxpayers to build Trump’s ballroom. It is a disgusting betrayal of millions of hardworking Americans.
Mother’s Day is hard for moms who lost children to gun violence. Over the weekend, I joined Roseland Ceasefire and State Rep. Bob Rita to honor their strength. I ran for Congress to end this epidemic. I won’t stop fighting until every child is safe.
Republicans can find a billion dollars for Trump’s ballroom but can’t find the money to make life more affordable. Let’s be honest: Donald Trump and his Republican allies don’t care that the American people are struggling.
Too many families struggle to put food on the table. Last week, I visited Historia Coffee and their Provision Market in Monee, which provides a dignified space for people to shop for groceries based on their own needs, including garden-grown produce.
President Trump said it himself: the American people are his last priority. He doesn’t think about the people at all. Too many families are choosing between groceries and gas while President Trump chooses tariffs, ballrooms, and war.
Rep. Kiggans agreed with a disgusting, vile comment, and then outright lied about it. She needs to apologize and then resign. We are a multi-racial country, and if a Member of Congress cannot see the beauty in our diversity, then they have no place serving in the People’s House.
Epstein’s survivors are still waiting for transparency. Trump and his DOJ need to release the full Epstein files and stop shielding his rich and powerful friends from accountability. Every delay tells survivors whose comfort is being protected.
Yesterday, we celebrated moms. Today, we keep fighting for them. I’m proud to have passed a full year of Medicaid postpartum coverage, but still too many mothers die. We have more work to do, which is why I support #HealthyMomsHealthyBabiesAmerica.
It is past time for the gun industry to be held accountable for the destruction it’s brought on our country. My Responsible Firearms Marketing Act and Firearm Safety Act would hold the gun industry to the same safety and marketing standards as every other industry.
For families in Illinois and across the country, internet access can mean a job application, a telehealth visit, or a child’s homework. My bill Promoting Access to Broadband Act will help more people access the Lifeline program to save money and close the digital divide.
During Women’s Health Week, I’m thinking of every family touched by cancer. I’m excited to have helped pass the Nancy Gardner Sewell Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act. This bill, named after @sewell.house.gov's mom, will help save lives.
Women’s health cannot be treated as an afterthought. This Women’s Health Week, I’ll continue to lead the fight on Capitol Hill for affordable, accessible care rooted in dignity — from birth control and cancer screenings to maternal healthcare and preventive care.
Happy Mother’s Day to the moms, grandmothers, aunties, caregivers, and mother figures who hold our families together. Your love, labor, and leadership shape our communities every single day. Thank you for always showing up.
66 years ago, the FDA approved the first birth control pill. More than six decades later, we are still fighting to protect access to contraception. Birth control and medication abortion IS healthcare. Politicians shouldn’t get in between patients and their doctors.
Healthcare is a small business issue. When premiums go up, owners feel it. Workers feel it. Families feel it. Republicans let enhanced premium tax credits expire, and millions of small business owners are paying the price.
This World Red Cross Day, I’m grateful for the volunteers and staff who show up for people in crisis. In the U.S., the Red Cross helps someone every eight minutes. When disaster strikes or families need help, they show up.
Even as we face healthcare cuts, a gutted Medicaid, and budgets that prioritize war over care, we are not growing weary. Last week’s @nmqf.bsky.social honorees remind us what we’re fighting for: health equity, dignity, and a future where your ZIP code or skin color does not decide your life.
