Trump’s war with Iran is reckless, costly, and deadly. It has taken lives, deepened instability, and raised costs for families here at home. House Republicans stood by and let it happen. I will not stay silent to this reckless administration and their reckless leadership.
On Monday, I met with USW District 7 in Matteson to talk about the issues facing workers: collective bargaining, health care, job security, retirement security, and workplace safety. Being a union champion has defined my career, and I will keep standing with our workers.
Trump tried to end protections for more than 350,000 Haitians who contribute $6 billion to our country. That is cruel and dangerous. It took exactly 218 Congress members, but we successfully passed @pressley.house.gov's bill to extend protected status for Haitians!
My late stepdaughter would tell me about the calls she’d receive every day as a 911 operator. My PROTECT 911 Act supports our emergency operators so they can do their lifesaving work. During National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, my gratitude goes out to all our 911 operators.
On the last day of Black Maternal Health Week, I’m reminding folks that the fight for maternal health does not end. The fight continues until all Black women are safe, supported, and taken seriously before, during, and long after pregnancy.
Barbara Flynn Currie opened doors for generations of women in public service. She was tough, brilliant, and deeply respected across Illinois. It was an honor to serve with her. So much of the work we carry forward today rests on the foundation she helped build.
I’ve successfully passed maternal health legislation, including the extension of Medicaid postpartum coverage to a full year. But more work must be done. Mercedes Wells was discharged from a hospital while in active labor. My WELLS Act would prevent similar traumatic situations.
I brought the issue of maternal mortality to Congress nearly a decade ago because nothing was being done. Black women face higher rates of death, stillbirths, and pregnancy-related complications. Now, I stand with many of my colleagues dedicated to improving health outcomes.
Black women are still being failed by our healthcare system before, during, and after pregnancy. President Trump attacks our healthcare and creates fertile ground for racism to grow in our hospitals. That’s unacceptable. More work must be done to save Black moms.
Trump chose war with Iran and left the American people to deal with the consequences. Higher costs, more instability, no plan. Republicans in Congress are still handing over their war powers instead of standing up for the country they serve.
Nineteen years after the shooting at Virginia Tech, we mourn the 32 lives stolen by gun violence. We owe it to every survivor to offer more than thoughts and prayers; we owe them action. I will keep fighting to end the gun violence epidemic.
TODAY: The House will vote on the War Powers Resolution. Republicans need to see reason and vote with Democrats to rein in this President. A fragile ceasefire is not enough to end the chaos President Trump started in Iran, especially after VP Vance’s failed negotiations.
I’m holding the students, families, teachers, and staff at Hyde Park Academy close tonight. The pain of losing a young person to gun violence or surviving such a traumatic experience is unbearable. No child should have to live with this kind of fear. abc7chicago.com/post/chicago...
Black women deserve to be heard, protected, and cared for with dignity. The Black maternal health crisis is real, and too many lives are at risk because our healthcare system continues to fail Black mothers. I’ve been working in Congress for nearly a decade to fix it.
Medicaid is not a waste. It covers doctor visits, prescriptions, prenatal care, mental health support, and treatment people count on. No matter what, people should be able to have access to affordable healthcare. It’s a right—not a privilege for the wealthy few.
I enjoyed speaking with students at Rich Township High School’s IB Global Politics class. They asked such thoughtful questions! As our young generations continue to grow and learn, they should think about running for office themselves one day.
