Gas prices keep rising, with the national average topping $4 per gallon. It's ridiculous.
Americans will continue to face high costs with no end in sight due to Trump's war in Iran and his failed efforts to end it.

The housing crisis isn’t a hoax. It’s reshaping our communities, pricing families out, and widening the housing inequality gap.
We need policies that prioritize people over profits and make affordable housing a reality for everyone.
Trump’s budget continues the administration’s efforts to dismantle the Department of Education and disinvest in our children’s futures. It makes $8.5 billion in cuts to K-12 programs and eliminates preschool development grants.
Meanwhile, Trump wants more money to fund his war in Iran.
This Child Abuse Prevention Month, we recommit to protect every child. My work, like the Protect Black Women and Girls Act, ensures all children are cared for.
Every child deserves safety, love and to be heard. Let's stand together and protect our children.
Trump’s tariffs are making life more expensive.
In 2025, households paid about $1,700 more than the year before because of his tariffs.
This year, that added cost is projected to rise to more than $2,500.
Financial literacy matters.
But let’s be honest: no budgeting app can fix low wages, high costs, or an economy that keeps working families under pressure.
People need information, and they also need the Trump administration to deliver an economy that works for all people.
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.
Tax season should not feel like a bait and switch.
But that is exactly what families got.
Trump promised bigger refunds. Instead, working people are getting 65% less than promised while costs keep rising.
I’ll keep fighting for safer pregnancies, healthier mothers, and a healthcare system that treats Black women with dignity.
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.
LIVE: Black maternal health is a matter of life and death.
I’m joined by Members of Congress and health leaders to call out healthcare inequities and condemn Trump’s attacks on healthcare that exacerbate our maternal mortality crisis.

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.
