No Donald, Chicago is not your war zone

Take off that Cavalry hat, you draft dodger. You didn’t earn the right to wear it. Stolen valor at its worst.

BREAKING: Republicans just blocked my amendment to ensure Veterans, foster kids and the homeless aren’t denied SNAP benefits. There is no one Republicans won’t betray to ram through tax cuts for their billionaire buddies.

A “strong and smart President” would not trust billionaire AI tech companies to regulate themselves and put people before their own bottom line. We cannot wait. Congress must act.

Wishing a happy, healthy and peaceful new year to all celebrating Rosh Hashanah! Shanah Tovah!

25 years ago, nearly 3,000 innocent lives were taken in terrorist attacks that forever changed our nation. We remember the first responders who ran toward danger to save lives. We mourn with the families who will forever carry the weight of that tragic day. We will never forget.

Pete Hegseth blusters about meritocracy while demolishing our military’s merit-based promotion system. He wouldn’t know merit if it looked him in the eye.   Our officers deserve clarity and due process when Hegseth caps their careers. Let’s require it by law. www.military.com/exclusive-se...

Child care in Illinois costs as much as $1,633 a month. Trump promised to lower costs. Instead, he’s attacking Head Start and making life harder for middle-class families. Enough. It’s past time we had universal child care in America.

Happy Labor Day to America's workers. Through economic uncertainty, rising costs and war, they keep showing up, providing for their families and powering our economy. While Trump puts billionaires first, I'll always side with unions, workers and the middle class.

Families can’t afford this back-to-school season. I’m fighting to lower your costs.

Building yet another golden eyesore, this time right by the DCA landing approach, in one of the most complex airspaces in the entire country. Trump puts his vanity projects over your safety.

If a Democrat made $2 billion off of their presidency while waging an illegal war that's spiking costs for families, Republicans would immediately call for impeachment.

No more corruption.
No more war.
No more leaving families behind.

Saddened to hear about the passing of Gloria Steinem. Gloria’s activism was unique. It focused on people, empathy and unlearning. She used the power of coalitions and togetherness to work towards equality, while elevating the voices of the marginalized. Her legacy will live on.
