America is beautifully diverse, and I remain committed to fighting for LGBTQI+ rights in Congress. I'll always stand firmly for health care access, marriage equality, and the right of every person to live openly and authentically regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation.
Love always wins

Happy Pride Month! This month is a celebration of the resilience, strength, and joy of the LGBTQI+ community. 🌈🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Too many lives are cut short by preventable roadway crashes every day.
@blumenthal.senate.gov and I just reintroduced the Road to Zero Resolution to push for safer roads and a future where everyone can get where they’re going safely.
We can and must do better.
I'm relieved that Ricardo and his mother Martha have finally been released. But what they endured should've never happened.
The cruelty we're seeing in our immigration system must end.
Immigrants make our communities stronger, and we must keep fighting for a system that reflects our values.
Congratulations to the Northwestern women’s lacrosse team on an outstanding championship win!
These women are powerful, determined, and absolutely fearless on the field.
Evanston is so proud of you. Go 'Cats! 💜🏆
The best way we can honor their legacy is by ensuring every veteran and military family has the support and care they have earned.
Today, on Memorial Day, we pause to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.
I’m grateful for their courage, and I’m holding their loved ones close in my thoughts today.
Black women in the US are far more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women.
Every mom deserves good care before, during, and after pregnancy.
I introduced legislation with @bluntrochester.senate.gov to expand coverage and improve maternal health care.
He never backed down from a fight, and he never lost his sharp wit or his humanity.
I will miss him dearly. My heart is with Jim, his entire family, and everyone who loved him.
My dear friend Barney Frank was one of a kind. He was brilliant, fearless, funny, and deeply compassionate. Serving alongside him was one of the great privileges of my career.
Barney helped change this country for the better, from advancing financial reform to breaking barriers for LGBTQ Americans.
Cruelty and bigotry do not make America strong. Immigrants are, and always have been, what make our country great.
My office is in communication with the family’s attorney, and we will do everything possible to bring them home and secure justice for them.
I will never stop fighting to protect families from toxic “forever chemicals.”
PFAS chemicals are linked to cancer, liver damage, and other serious health risks and now Trump’s EPA is trying to roll back limits on them in our drinking water.
This is exactly what happens when corporations and polluters call the shots in Washington.
Clean water is a right.
I was a Head Start teacher, and I saw firsthand the joy, confidence, and opportunities this program gave so many children and families.
On its anniversary, we celebrate Head Start and stand against attacks that threaten access to early childhood education for millions of kids.
To Meta, children are nothing more than a dollar value.
It’s past time we listen to parents sounding the alarm about the dangers Big Tech poses to children, and all Americans.
Families deserve accountability. Congress must stand up to Big Tech.
I'm proud to have secured $7 million in federal funding for the Village of Mount Prospect to help reduce gridlock at Rand Rd., Kensington Rd., and Route 83.
These improvements will reduce wait times and improve safety drivers and pedestrians alike.
Trump promised lower prices. Instead, his reckless and illegal war in Iran is making life more expensive for everyone else.
Gas prices up. Grocery prices up. Families stretched even thinner.
Working people are once again paying for Donald Trump’s chaos.
Happy Mother’s Day! 💐🌹☀️
Instead of just chocolates and flowers, how about paid parental leave, affordable health care, fair wages, and child care families can count on?
Today and every day, we fight for policies that support working families and honor the care moms provide.
Eight years after Trump withdrew from the JCPOA, a deal that constrained Iran’s nuclear program, we are still facing higher gas prices and ongoing global instability.
Abandoning diplomacy has real consequences.
Negotiation works. Chaos doesn’t.
