It is like, it's nuts and I just -- this doesn't feel like real life. It is real life and that is why it's so important for us to follow through and make sure justice is done.

I think they're still hoping just like in 2016, that somehow this magic pony is going to come out of the sky and Donald Trump is going to be taken out of this race.

I stand before you with a heavy heart to remember a young woman whose passion and dedication touched the lives of many in the Springfield community and beyond. Emma Shafer was a remarkable activist who sought to create positive change in…

The Third Congressional District of Illinois is home to a historic Puerto Rican community directly linked to the legacy, present, and future of Puerto Rico. The lack of food sovereignty in Puerto Rico is a policy choice that threatens…

What are the tools that we have at our disposal to persuade them that it is worth following our higher transparency, environmental, and labor standards?

Today, I am reflecting on a moment that occurred just after I was sworn in to this office. My former Republican colleague Mark Kirk gave me some of the best advice I had ever received. He said: In the end, anything that gets done here that…
