I just watched Hegseth’s speech at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore. Let’s be clear about what the Trump Administration’s “Peace Through Strength” has looked like.

Trump cares more about building his Marie Antoinette ballroom than he does protecting our troops in harm’s way.   Our servicemembers and the American people deserve better.

Illinois has the highest known number of lead pipes in the nation—and we’re taking action to change that. 

Proud to work with @senatordurbin to secure $295 million to deliver safer drinking water ...

Our economy is spiraling. Gas prices are through the roof. Inflation is outpacing wages for the first time in three years. And Trump wants to spend a billion taxpayer dollars on his Marie Antoinet...

This Memorial Day, may we honor those who sacrificed for our nation by continuing to strengthen our democracy and serve one another—even when it’s difficult. God bless our troops, our fallen heroe...

Today, we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for people they would never meet or hear thank you from—but whose lives were made better because of their service. We carry on the legacy of o...

On Memorial Day, we remember our fallen heroes who answered the call—not for themselves, but for democracy. In their names, it’s on each of us to live our lives in a way that honors their sacrifice.

Great to meet with the Will County Governmental League today to discuss the issues Illinois families are facing under the Trump Administration. I look forward to continuing to work together to pro...

It was an honor to join fellow Veterans and local leaders in Norridge to commemorate Memorial Day weekend. This weekend is a reminder of the cost of freedom and our responsibility to do right by ...

It’s cookout season and the only thing being grilled is your wallet. This is Trump’s America.

Late night is losing one of the greats!   For years, Stephen brought laughter, truth and light into our homes when we needed it most. And for that, we’ll always be grateful.

It’s always an honor to speak at the annual APAICS Gala. The American story wouldn’t exist without the strength of our AANHPI Community.

It’s been over a year since the horrific DCA crash took 67 lives—and the FAA still hasn’t committed to fully implementing the NTSB’s safety recommendations to prevent the next catastrophe.   Admini...

A blockade is an act of war under international law.   This Administration’s lack of competence, strategy and endgame is setting us up for another forever war in the Middle East.

Our troops deserve a Commander in Chief who does right by them. Not one that throws them into an unjustified war with no plan and no end state—and works to hollow out the VA.

It isn’t Donald Trump or his wealthy family that is footing the bill of this expensive, senseless foreign war. It is our servicemembers, Veterans and the American people who are paying the price.

Two years after we passed a law requiring the FAA to update its outdated evacuation standards, we are still waiting for answers. Meanwhile, the FAA is allowing airlines to reduce the number of cre...

So grateful to have gathered for Mother’s Day with @senduckworth and moms from across Chicagoland. We talked about modern motherhood in America and the policies that are truly family first.

In the middle of a war, the Army abruptly reassigned employees managing our munitions and sustainment at the Rock Island Arsenal—giving some just 2–5 days to uproot their families, move out of stat...

It was my honor to speak with SFC Jose Serrano today after successfully advocating for his wife’s release from ICE detention. I’ll never stop working to protect those who sacrifice for our nation.
