Trump's illegal and unconstitutional Iran war is driving $6 gas and $7 diesel. No Russian diesel deal or other distraction will fix the crisis he created. The American people want this war to end, and it must. https://t.co/ltiCmruN93
Trump announced an energy cease-fire that Ukraine knew nothing about and Russia immediately violated. A cease-fire that Putin refuses to honor isn't a cease-fire. Trump needs to put pressure on Putin, not Zelenskyy. https://t.co/NkIPsvBsMM
Trump started an illegal war with Iran that sent fuel prices soaring. Now he's rewarding Putin with a Russian diesel deal while pressuring Ukraine to stop striking Russian oil facilities. Putin gets billions. Ukraine gets more Russian attacks. Americans get stuck with the bill. https://t.co/DSVUegV3oO
I am horrified that a white supremacist allegedly attempted to massacre Indian Americans at a Hindu temple in Aurora. This is where the poison of anti-Indian hatred and white supremacy can lead, and we cannot wait until innocent people are killed to take it seriously. I am grateful to the coworkers who sounded the alarm and the law enforcement officers who intervened. Every American deserves to live and worship without fear, and we must stand together against hatred in all its forms. https://t.co/HbMleO2XPL
As Pakistan’s government arrests opposition leaders and suspends an elected provincial government, President Trump continues to embrace its military chief. The United States should stand with the Pakistani people, not enable political repression. We must press for the release of political prisoners, including Imran Khan. https://t.co/evitvY5gwk
I joined WBEZ’s Say More to discuss the future of the Democratic Party, the challenges facing our country, and what comes next for me as I prepare to leave Congress. https://t.co/27IO6DFJtT
Trump's Russian diesel deal would help bankroll Putin's war machine without meaningfully lowering fuel prices for Americans. It's illegal, ineffective, and no substitute for ending Trump's Iran war. https://t.co/Rdo1sjtD5F
Kimberly Guilfoyle's removal would be a start, but the corruption in this administration begins at the top. When Trump and his family set the example, everyone beneath them thinks they can get away with it too. We need to end all the corruption now. https://t.co/gNPQpzY2p4
I’m saddened to learn of Pope Leo XIV’s lung cancer diagnosis, but grateful that his surgery was successful. I’m praying for His Holiness and wishing him strength, healing, and a full and speedy recovery. https://t.co/QknfI3ALCJ
A federal search of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's home three weeks before Election Day is highly suspicious, especially given Trump's history of disgusting Islamophobic attacks against her. The DOJ must never be used as a weapon against political opponents. https://t.co/2V5W5m64AT
Trump spent $20 million in taxpayer funds on political propaganda. When a federal judge ordered the ads stopped, they aired hundreds more times. Taxpayer dollars are not Trump's campaign funds, and court orders are not optional. The Administration must be held accountable. https://t.co/xrVSw1vpMg
Serving the people of Illinois has been the honor of my life. From helping more than 15,000 constituents to passing legislation that expands opportunity, I'm proud of what we've accomplished together. I'm grateful to the people of the 8th District for their trust, and I'm determined to finish strong. https://t.co/z8ieNqNRSW
Matthew Shepard was just 21 years old when he was murdered in an anti-gay hate crime. On the anniversary of his death, we honor his life and recommit ourselves to confronting hate, protecting LGBTQI+ Americans, and building a country where everyone can live safely and openly as who they are.
On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we celebrate the rich histories, cultures, and enduring contributions of Native American communities. We also recognize the injustices Indigenous peoples have faced and reaffirm our commitment to tribal sovereignty, treaty obligations, and justice for all.
Coming out is deeply personal, and everyone deserves the freedom to do it in their own time and on their own terms. On National Coming Out Day, we celebrate LGBTQI+ Americans living openly and authentically, and stand with everyone still deciding when, how, or whether to share that part of themselves.
Wishing a joyous Navratri to everyone celebrating! May these nine nights bring strength, peace, and prosperity to you and your loved ones. https://t.co/CX9GpOmXXp
Two more suburban police officers face charges for allegedly misusing Flock license plate cameras to conduct unauthorized searches. This is exactly why I introduced the bipartisan NO FLOCK Act. Surveillance technology cannot become a license to track Americans without accountability. https://t.co/zp0BzXVn8K
Chicago lost a Bears legend today. Mike Ditka helped bring our city championships as both a player and a coach, including the unforgettable 1985 Super Bowl season. His legacy will live on for generations of Bears fans. My condolences to his family and loved ones. https://t.co/2bIpsaiTay
At a time of the largest measles outbreak in 35 years, the Trump Administration is rejecting settled science, underreporting measles deaths, and delaying vaccine access for children. I joined my colleagues in demanding answers from the CDC. Our kids deserve better. https://t.co/VIIMAzOBYg
Captain Smit Machchhar risked his life to save 172 passengers and his fellow crew members when his co-pilot attempted to hijack Flydubai Flight 1073. I'm honoring his extraordinary courage in the Congressional Record. His heroism deserves our nation's recognition. https://t.co/wJORSl3Nec
I wrote in CyberScoop about a growing threat Washington is overlooking: quantum computers could break the encryption protecting our financial records, military communications, and national security secrets. Foreign adversaries can steal that data today and decrypt it later. Congress must act now. https://t.co/bWfLGqeDST
ICE agents are already operating near voting sites, raising fears of intimidation and reinforcing why I demanded answers when FBI Director Kash Patel refused to rule out deploying agents to the polls. Armed federal agents have no business intimidating Americans exercising their right to vote. https://t.co/JS8zgysF8b
Head Start provides early education, health care, nutrition, and support to help children thrive. Now, the Trump Administration is trying to dismantle the program and strip away protections for kids and families. I joined 189 colleagues to demand they withdraw this proposal, obey the law, and protect Head Start.
Trump is seemingly reinventing shibboleths from first principles, on course to making 2+2=5 the next loyalty test.
Trump’s ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle, reportedly asked a donor to secretly pay her $100,000 credit card bill while promising access to senior Administration officials. The American people deserve to know that access to their government won't be sold to the highest bidder. https://t.co/6dcJcHSY1S
