President Trump: You are not welcome in Chicago. Sending the National Guard endangers Black communities already overpoliced & under-invested in. If you cared about saving lives, you'd pass gun safety laws & fund community violence intervention.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 22(source)

As students head back to school, making new friends & memories, let's prioritize their safety. Have you secured your gun? I've joined @carson.house.gov & @mcbath.house.gov to introduce the Gun Safety Incentive Act to help prevent gun violence in our schools and communities.

As Chair of the @cbc.house.gov Health Braintrust, I won’t stop fighting for clinically diverse research. Clinical trials are a catalyst for change, and they deliver medical breakthroughs that should serve everyone.

The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) has been committed to using the full Constitutional power, statutory authority, and financial resources of the federal government to ensure that African Americans…

The supreme court's decision to cut programs that diversify research grants at the NIH will weaken our nation's ability to innovate and leave historically marginalized communities behind.

Supreme Court lets Trump administration cut $783 million of research funding in anti-DEI push

The Supreme Court is allowing the Trump administration to slash hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of research funding in its push to cut federal diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.

Grateful to the young adults of Danville, who are turning their community's pain into a powerful push for gun violence prevention. Their recent town hall & recommendations to the Danville City Council are a testament to their courage and leadership.

Danville youths ask council for gun-violence prevention plan like other cities have

Youths involved in a town hall last month to stop gun violence, now ask the Danville City Council to put a city gun violence prevention plan in place.

Couldn't be happier for my friend Channyn Lynne Parker, named the new CEO of Equality Illinois! Channyn's advocacy for LGBTQ+ healthcare access and proven leadership are exactly what Illinois needs to move forward. I'm excited to see Channyn’s vision in action!

Channyn Lynne Parker Named CEO Of Equality Illinois, Will Depart Brave Space Alliance

Parker will be the first Black transgender woman to lead the organization in its 34-year history of LGBTQ+ advocacy.

That’s a wrap on the Barn Hall! Thank you to the farmers and food security advocates who joined me in conversation. Your stories and insights are invaluable, and together, we’ll work toward a more resilient and food-secure future.

Enjoying a great lunch and round table discussion with local small business owners at Beans & Barley Brews during today's farm tour. The meal came from the farm and mill I just visited — it’s truly farm to table!

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 20(source)

Next stop: Janie’s Mill to see their incredible field-to-flour operation. They blend modern methods with historic processes. (Check the hair net! It’s my new look 💁🏽‍♀️)

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 20(source)

My next stop is Janie’s Farm Organic, a multi-generational family farm that uses innovative technology to grow healthy, organic grains. Their commitment to the land is inspiring.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 20(source)

Kicking off the day with a visit to Urban Growers Collective to learn about how they are investing in the local food economies through urban farming, job training, and education. This is right in Chicago!

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 20(source)

Touring farms and hosting my annual Barn Hall today. I'm grateful to our farmers for sharing their challenges and priorities. I'll take what I've learned back to Washington to fight for the resources farmers need and deserve. Stay tuned to check out where I go!

President Trump's "Big, Ugly Law" cut funding for SNAP and Medicaid to give tax breaks to billionaires. This puts hundreds of thousands of our neighbors at risk of losing food assistance, worsening our state's food insecurity crisis.

‘A terrible position’: Illinois sprints to lower new SNAP costs without booting people who need it

State officials say the changes written into the new federal law could place hundreds of thousands of Illinoisans at risk of losing SNAP benefits.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 20(source)

President Trump is turning DC into a war zone. Crime in DC has been at an all-time low, but now, Trump has reversed gun violence prevention efforts and thrown more police in the mix. It’s simple: more guns don’t stop gun violence.

3 more GOP governors authorize deployment of National Guard troops as part of Trump show of force

The Mississippi National Guard will deploy 200 troops to D.C. as part of the Trump administration’s ongoing federal policing efforts in the nation’s capital.

Thirty years ago: ☑️Microsoft invented Windows 95 ☑️“Friends” premiered ☑️Michael Jordan said, “I’m back.” A lot’s changed since then — but laws regulating gun dealers have stayed the same and our gun violence crisis has gotten worse. It’s time we update our gun laws.

Once again President Trump & his administration are choosing to put profits over people. Trump is planning to sell sacred lands of the San Carlos Apache & other tribes to a foreign-owned mining company. We must stand together and say NO.
