Not sure America is ready for fascists vs. socialists. I’d rather find common ground on the center left. But again, if you want to run in IL17 as a democratic socialist, I would welcome you to the race. I, however, am going to bed. My 1 hour of daily social is done.
It was a motion to table. I’m never voting for anything when I have 15 mins to read what I’m voting on. Every member of Dem leadership also voted to table. We will have a time for articles. And it needs to come out of committee.
Like I said, I need to be briefed. And no, I don’t think politicians’ rush to put something out on social is helpful. I’m most concerned about retaliation and I said what I said. Not sure what this has to do with me being a Meteorologist, but hey! Sunny and 96° tomorrow in IL17.
2/2 We must make sure Iran never builds a nuclear weapon. However, this attack may incite an escalation against Americans around the world. I am praying for the safety of our troops and urge the Trump administration to be transparent and accountable.
1/2 This evening, President Trump circumvented Congress and attacked Iran. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, I await classified briefings to determine the operation’s success.
Earlier this year, I joined my colleagues in Congress to re-introduce a bill to protect workers and uplift their rights to organize. A strong workforce means a strong America.
Along the Illinois River, Peoria was a critical stop for those traveling through the Underground Railroad. Abolitionists operated safe houses to aid individuals on their journey to freedom. This Juneteenth, I’m proud to represent a district with a strong history of supporting emancipation.
When we stand up and speak loudly for our neighbors and our values, we develop stronger communities. So proud of everyone in #IL17 who showed up for #nokings this weekend!🇺🇸
Why we need 🏳️‍🌈 988 funding: 39% of LGBTQ+ young people consider suicide. 14% of non-LGBTQ+ young people consider suicide. 12% of LGBTQ+ young people attempt suicide. 6% of non-LGBTQ+ young people attempt suicide. Trump sinks to a new level of cruel today by nixing mental health help for kids.
