The Grifter-in-Chief strikes again.
Donald Trump is spending more than $300 million of taxpayer money on a luxury ballroom after claiming Americans wouldn’t pay “one dime.”
We will be stuck paying the bill of his vanity project.

The Trump DOJ ripped $66 million away from community safety and violence prevention efforts.
The people doing the hardest work to stop violence are being forced to do more with less. These cuts are reckless and put lives at risk.
Epstein survivors deserve accountability and the whole truth.
Todd Blanche and the DOJ need to follow the law, release the full Epstein files, and stop protecting the White House and their millionaire allies.
Prices are higher than ever, directly impacting hardworking families.
President Trump’s response? “I love the inflation.”
His war in Iran caused higher gas prices. His tariffs caused higher grocery prices. He is hurting our country and does not care.

The White House belongs to the American people, not corporate gatekeepers.
Locking out the press corps to host a private UFC match is shameful.
www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Today, we celebrate Flag Day to honor the Stars and Strips as a symbol of our nation’s enduring values and aspirations.
I’m incredibly grateful to my friend @mcbath.house.gov for hosting a powerful hearing to support community violence intervention organizations.
Even under this Trump administration, we’ll make sure survivors’ voices are heard loud and clear: it’s beyond time to end gun violence.
Republicans claim there’s no money for healthcare. But then they give $70 billion in tax dollars to ICE to continue their reign of terror on our communities.
Your tax dollars should be used to make your life better. Not bankroll Trump’s cruelty & corruption.
To the millions of individuals, families, and caregivers navigating the reality of Alzheimer’s: you are not alone.
This month, and every month, I am standing with our community to ensure you have the care, resources, and support you need.
The numbers are clear: under Trump and the GOP, basic living expenses for IL families are up $2,500.
Their response? A vanity ballroom and billions for an unchecked ICE.
This is Trump's latest theft of taxpayer dollars.
After the tragedy at Pulse, I protested on the House floor for over 24 hours with Congressman John Lewis to demand action.
I will always make Good Trouble to fight for gun violence victims and survivors.
A decade ago, a gunman targeted LGBTQ+ and Latino communities at Pulse Nightclub.
No one should be shot or killed for celebrating something as beautiful as Pride.
As a Member of the @equality.house.gov, I refuse to let hate dictate the future of the communities I am proud to stand with.
Black men face disproportionately higher rates of chronic illness and shorter life expectancies due to systemic gaps in our healthcare system.
Men’s Health Month isn't just a reminder to see a doctor—it's a call to dismantle the barriers keeping men from quality care.
Americans do not want a reckless and out-of-control ICE agency.
But Republicans gifted $70 billion to ICE and Gestapo so they can continue to illegally detain people, terrorize Americans and immigrants alike, and kill people in cold blood.
Their budget priorities are severely out of order.
This month, I honor the generations of Caribbean Americans whose leadership, creativity, and service have helped shape our nation’s story.
Happy Caribbean American Heritage Month!
Today, I led the @housedemocrats.bsky.social in wearing orange to honor Hadiya Pendleton and every life stolen by gun violence. Orange was Hadiya's favorite color, and now, it's a bright beacon for gun violence awareness.
We owe survivors more than thoughts & prayers. We owe them action.
This is a disgusting, hateful symbol of white supremacy, used to intimidate and threaten Black communities.
Seeing one in Grant Park is deeply disturbing.
When hateful rhetoric is normalized, acts like this follow.
I will continue to condemn hate.
I brought the issue of maternal health to Congress because of Charles Johnson’s wife who died in childbirth. Nearly 10 years later, I introduced the WELLS Act because of my constituent Mercedes Wells.
They’ve now come together to advocate on the Hill for Black maternal health 💜.
We can’t build safer communities while gun laws remain full of loopholes.
Congress needs to close the Charleston Loophole, which allows gun purchases in three days even without a background check.
It’s common sense: background checks should always be required to buy a gun.
60 years after the Equal Pay Act, women are still paid less for the same work.
The gap is even wider for Black women.
I don’t accept it.
I support the Paycheck Fairness Act and efforts to strengthen equal pay protections. I’ll keep fighting for equal pay for equal work.
