Families across America are paying nearly 8% more to stock their children’s backpacks compared to last year.
This is a huge problem. How can America prosper if we can’t afford to equip future generations with the tools necessary to succeed?

Mercedes Wells was discharged from a hospital while in labor.
Minutes later, she gave birth in her husband's truck.
For women of color, this happens far too often.
That's why the WELLS Act requires hospitals to have a safe discharge plan before sending laboring patients home.
I've watched neighbors show up, clearing branches, checking on each other, and helping their communities recover after the storms the last few weeks.
I haven't made it everywhere yet; if you had damage, please fill out this Cook County assessment: survey123.arcgis.com/share/56bafe...
The Inflation Reduction Act capped insulin at $35 a month and let Medicare negotiate drug prices for the first time in history.
Four years later, Republicans are still trying to gut it.
I won't stop fighting for this lifeline.

Across the Southland many are still without power, cleaning up storm damage, and waiting for help from state and federal resources.
A state disaster proclamation will unlock FEMA relief. I'm calling on Gov. Pritzker to sign one now.

On average, Black women wait 4.5 years for a fibroid diagnosis, about 1.2 years longer than White women.
That gap is costing them their health.
I'm cosponsoring the Stephanie Tubbs Jones Uterine Fibroids Research and Education Act to help close that gap.
Social Security turns 91 today.
I think about the seniors who count on that monthly check for rent, medicine, and groceries.
It’s not a handout. It's a promise this country made.
I will continue to fight to ensure it is there despite the attacks from the administration and the GOP.
My @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social colleagues and I are fighting for an affordable America. What is the GOP fighting for?
Wages are down.
Prices are up.
Healthcare is unaffordable.
The economy is failing, and our families are stuck footing the bill for misplaced priorities.
A ballroom over basic needs. A helipad over affordable healthcare.
Families in my district struggle to obtain these while this administration wants to spend $900 million of YOUR taxpayer money on White House renovations.
That tells you everything about Trump's priorities.
15 deaths were preventable; Americans’ safety shouldn’t take a back seat to innovation.
The House recently passed my SAFE Exit Act, ensuring that there are proper and practical safety protocols for EV doors in emergencies or power loss scenarios.
Access to healthcare is not a privilege. It's a right, and the bare minimum.
No family should go broke trying to stay healthy.
I will keep fighting alongside @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social to restore affordable healthcare access.
Vaccines don't cause autism.
That's not opinion, it's decades of science.
Yesterday, the President signed an executive order pushing that harmful lie.
Families need real science, not conspiracy theories, running federal health policy.

Today, we honor the servicemembers who made courageous sacrifices for our nation’s security.
National Purple Heart Day reminds us all to remain committed to ensuring our veterans and their families receive the support they deserve.
Thank you for your service.
I visited Hope Center Foundation's new campus on the Far South Side this week.
Three floors built to help more neighbors find jobs, housing, and a fresh start.
Grateful to see this kind of growth rooted in our community.
On this day 61 years ago, the Voting Rights Act became law.
These rights were hard-won.
Those same rights are under attack again.
Congress must pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to protect them for generations to come.
Happy birthday, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social!
Thank you for your leadership of @housedemocrats.bsky.social, ensuring that people are put over politics, like expanding access to health care and fighting for equity daily!
Wishing my dear friend @BarackObama.bsky.social a happy 65th birthday!
America couldn’t be prouder of your service, and Illinois couldn’t have asked for a better son.
Oral health is healthcare.
Too many people end up in the ER for dental pain that preventive care could have stopped.
I've worked across the aisle to fix that, because this shouldn't be a partisan issue.
