We won't back down when it comes to protecting the health care people deserve.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that nearly 15 million people will lose their health coverage because of Trump and Republicans’ harmful policies.
Meanwhile, Democrats are fighting to reverse these devastating cuts and protect families’ access to affordable care.
Affordable Care Act Open Enrollment starts Sunday!
Trump & Republicans are driving up health care costs while giving billionaires tax breaks.
Democrats are fighting for affordable coverage for EVERYONE.
Explore your options at HealthCare.gov by Jan. 15. Health care is a right, not a privilege!
Dolores Huerta was a friend and tireless champion for workers’ rights and civil rights. I’ve stood alongside her in the fight for justice for years, and I'll always carry the lessons she taught me.
We stand on the shoulders of courageous women who never gave up. In Dolores’ honor, we must persist.
Trump and Republicans are taking food off families’ tables, forcing parents to choose between groceries and rent. Food banks are left picking up the pieces.
No family should go hungry so billionaires can get tax breaks.
We have the power to fight back. www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...
Don’t wait until Election Day to make your voice heard!
Early voting is underway across Illinois.

We need an economy that puts working people first and gives every family a fair shot at getting ahead.
Donald Trump promised to bring down costs. Instead, the average household in Illinois’ 9th District is paying more than $5,300 extra for everyday goods and services.
His reckless tariffs and illegal war in Iran are driving up costs while families are left footing the bill.
Illinoisans can now preview 2027 health insurance plans and compare costs before open enrollment begins November 1.
Take time to review your options and find coverage that meets your family's needs. Visit GetCoveredIllinois.gov to get started.
This will by no means deter me and my team from continuing our work and prioritizing the needs of Illinois’ 9th Congressional District.
Thanks to warnings from the House Sergeant at Arms, my team quickly identified the suspicious piece of mail and did not open it. We’re grateful to the Skokie Police Department and U.S. Capitol Police for their swift response and assistance.
Today, my Skokie office received a suspicious envelope similar to those reported at other elected officials’ offices in Illinois and across the country.
Illinois is home to people of many faiths and backgrounds. That diversity makes our communities stronger, and everyone deserves to feel safe and welcome.
I'm disgusted by this attempted attack and stand firmly with our Hindu neighbors.
Hate has no home here.
The Trump Administration’s decision to delay this rule is welcome news, but it’s only a temporary fix.
I’ve heard from constituents who are scared of losing access to affordable, lifesaving medications from Canada.
@pocan.house.gov and I will keep fighting to make sure these options are available.
As someone with dense breasts myself, I know how important it is for women to have access to the screening they need.
I’ve spent years fighting to expand access to additional testing because every woman deserves the information and care she needs to protect her health.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Women with dense breasts can be up to 4-5 times more likely to develop breast cancer than women without dense breasts. Dense breast tissue can also make cancer harder to detect on a mammogram.
Our nation’s story can’t be told without recognizing the history, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples.
This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we celebrate Native communities and the rich traditions they continue to carry forward.
As The Social Reckoning, a film about Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen, hits theaters, I’ve teamed up with @trahan.house.gov and Congressman Tom Kean Jr. on bipartisan legislation to protect FTC whistleblowers who expose wrongdoing.
No one should face retaliation for speaking out.
Three years later, the human cost remains staggering. We must honor those we have lost by working toward lasting peace, justice, and security for Israelis and Palestinians alike.
