As a member of the Labor Caucus, I proudly support workers in the fight for better wages, benefits, and working conditions. This #InternationalWorkersDay, we honor the millions of workers who power our economy — and demand fair wages and strong protections for all. ✊

Americans deserve to age with dignity and respect! Yet Trump and House Republicans are hellbent on destroying Medicaid & Social Security. As Chair of the Task Force on Aging & Families, I’ll never let that happen! I'm fighting to protect seniors and people with disabilities.

Huge congratulations to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, who has made history as the first American, and most importantly Chicagoan, to lead the Catholic Church!

The nonpartisan congressional analysis confirmed that 13.7 million will lose their healthcare. It’s not a lie. It’s a fact. They don’t have to do this.

Medicaid is a lifeline for over 128,000 people in the Illinois Ninth - most of them children and seniors. Republicans want to gut their care to give tax cuts to the rich and corporations.

Republicans want to gut key programs that protect people from respiratory diseases and deadly pollutants and allow fossil fuel companies to bribe the government in exchange for a permit.

Republicans are trying to block medically necessary and lifesaving healthcare for transgender minors in their reconciliation package. They hope these cruel attacks on the trans community will distract Americans from the fact that they are trying to rip healthcare away from

Whether you're buying NFL tickets or concert seats, you shouldn’t need a calculator to know what you'll pay. Glad to see the FTC holding StubHub accountable to the new Unfair and Deceptive Fees Rule, which was passed under Chair Lina Khan’s bipartisan leadership.

Last night, House Ag Republicans voted to advance $290 billion worth of cuts to SNAP, putting over 4 million children at risk of going hungry.  I urge my colleagues to vote down this cruel legislation should it come to the floor.

I stand with Rep. LaMonica McIver who exercised her Congressional authority to ensure detained immigrants in her district were being treated fairly and humanely. Congressional oversight is our duty – not a crime. DOJ’s baseless charges against her are an affront to our

I’m deeply saddened to hear about the passing of my dear friend and distinguished colleague, Congressman Gerry Connolly. A true champion for human and workers’ rights, Gerry fought till the very end to create a better life for his constituents and people around the world. My

The murder of two Israeli embassy staffers outside an @ajcglobal event celebrating Jewish identity at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC last night is horrific and unacceptable.   Antisemitism has skyrocketed in the last decade and, as we’ve seen time and time again, can

What did the House GOP do for the American people this week? They proudly passed a bill to kick millions off their health care, slash the household income of people working paycheck to paycheck, and put school meals at risk for millions of kids.  But billionaires? They’re
