The open road, and the rest stops along the way, should be accessible to all who use it—truck drivers, Illinoisans, and visitors alike.

This summit is an opportunity for us, in the United States Congress, to reiterate we stand with the alliance.

We are a nation of immigrants, and we must end this anti-immigrant campaign fueled by fear and hatred.

As we see in Sudan and Burma, oppressive regimes are mercilessly targeting civilians, using many of the same tactics from Rwanda more than 30 years ago.

The United States has been a proud member of NATO for decades—a united group that formed from the ashes of two horrific wars in Europe, with many newer members eventually joining after decades of Soviet oppression.

Today, the number of Americans experiencing hunger is higher than it was during the worst point of the pandemic. Our communities are relying on our food banks even more.

I fear the President’s foreign policy positions and past comments on NATO have damaged our longstanding transatlantic relationship.

We couldn’t agree more with President Zelenskyy: Putin is not acting in good faith.

There is nothing more fundamental in a democracy than the right to vote, whether that be in person at the polls or with a mail-in ballot.

President Trump’s politically motivated criminal investigation of Lisa Cook, without cause, is all about his abuse of power and intimidation tactics.

While today’s ruling is a temporary win, we know the President will not concede and only ramp up his attacks.

Meeting with President Zelenskyy was a powerful reminder of what is at stake as Ukraine continues to defend its people, its sovereignty, and the principles that underpin transatlantic security.

To preserve the right to vote for every eligible American, Congress must take action to protect this precious right, including passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to restore and strengthen the protections of the Voting…

Whether responding to emerging viral threats like Ebola or RSV, preventing violence and opioid overdoses, or ensuring effective emergency response to natural disasters, public health departments in Illinois play a vital role in protecting…

It was great to visit Chestnut Health Systems Dental Clinic in Bloomington—one of the clinics helping to expand access to quality, affordable dental care for Illinoisans.

Anyone who has ever experienced the pain of a toothache knows that oral health care is not a luxury. It is essential. But for too many Illinoisans, dental care is out of reach.

We write for a second time regarding the unconstitutional and illegal attempt to transform the United States Postal Service into an election administration agency controlled by the White House and President Trump.

This ruling is an affront to good governance and the point of ‘independent’ federal agencies in the first place.

It is abundantly clear that Russia is not winning this war.

Sadly, the United States today is making the same mistakes that it did in Rwanda, turning away rather than turning towards.

Accordingly, we insist that the Postal Service abandon this proposed regulation and return to its core mission of providing universal postal services to every American. The Constitution and federal law demand nothing less.

That is why days like today are so important—to give voice to the innocent, begin the process of healing, and make the solemn promise ‘never again.’

The Supreme Court just overturned well-established precedent to greenlight Donald Trump’s threats to independent federal agencies.

President Trump’s illegal birthright citizenship order was not just an attack on our Constitution—it was an attack on millions of Americans who have immigrant heritage.

While I am relieved that the Court rightly decided that birthright citizenship is the law of the land, I would be naive to believe that this will stop Trump’s attacks.
