It’s 5am and it’s time to vote against this monstrosity that I call the Large Lousy Law slashing vital social safety net programs to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest among us

"In a world growing more dangerous by the day, Taiwan remains one of our best friends. It's time we treated it that way." Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi pens a new op-ed in Newsweek on the future of Taiwan and how it relates to our own future here in the U.S. newsweek.com/democratic-rep…

Yesterday, I spoke before the Oversight Committee about the profound impact Congressman Gerry Connolly had on me—as a friend, a colleague, and a dedicated public servant. His leadership, wit, and integrity will be deeply missed.

My statement on last night's attack at the Capital Jewish Museum.

Update from the MAGA Budget: In: Tax cuts for the very wealthy, deregulation of firearm silencers, higher Medicare premiums. Out: Billions in funding for Medicaid & SNAP, clean energy & climate provisions, and student loan repayment options. This is the GOP's Large, Lousy Law.

Honored to speak at today’s Memorial Day observance in Streamwood. We gathered to remember the heroes who gave their lives for our country—and to recommit ourselves to preserving the freedoms they died to protect. May their sacrifice never be forgotten.

Today, on Memorial Day, we pay tribute to those who have selflessly sacrificed for our freedom and democracy. We will never forget their courage and commitment to our values and our nation.

Republicans are leaving a plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who helped protect them during the January 6 insurrection in a utility room in the basement of the Capitol. washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/05…

President Trump purged Democrats from the FTC. Now that same FTC is investigating a nonprofit that criticized his ally Elon Musk. This isn’t law enforcement; it’s political retribution. We must protect watchdogs, not punish them for exposing hate. washingtonpost.com/style/media/20…

On World Hunger Day, I’m reminded how SNAP helped my family when I was a child. It helped us get back on our feet—just like it does for millions today. That’s why I’m fighting the GOP’s $300 billion in cuts to anti-hunger programs. No one should go hungry in America.

Honored to mark the 60th anniversary of the Older Americans Act at the North Shore Senior Center. From Meals on Wheels to elder abuse prevention, the programs the OAA funds help millions of American seniors live with dignity. We must protect and strengthen this legacy.

These people plotted to kidnap a governor and the president won't rule out pardoning them. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…

I first ran for office to try and make the lives of our neighbors better and improve our local communities. It was an honor to be recognized for that hard work by the DuPage Mayors and Managers Conference last night and to receive the Governmental Leader of the Year Award.

Americans shouldn’t be thanking Elon Musk for helping Donald Trump dismantle critical services and lay off essential staff. Hollowing out government isn’t public service; it’s sabotage. thehill.com/homenews/senat…

At Milescraft and across Illinois, small businesses and working families are paying the price for Trump’s reckless tariff war. These blanket tariffs kill jobs, raise costs, and squeeze margins. It’s time to end them and put Illinois workers first.

Happy Pride Month to everyone in the LGBTQI+ community! This month and every month, we stand with you in the fight for equality, dignity, and inclusion. Let’s continue to support one another and build a world where everyone can live with pride.

By choosing not to develop a vaccine to protect Americans from bird flu, President Trump is opening the door to another potential pandemic. npr.org/2025/05/28/nx-…

My thoughts are with the victims of yesterday's antisemitic attack in Boulder. Hate and violence have no place in our society.

On Friday, I had the privilege of presenting Douglas Beckmann with the Bronze Star he earned over 50 years ago for his valor in Vietnam. His courage, humility, and service embody the best of our nation. It was an honor to help ensure he received the recognition he deserves.

President Trump and Republicans claim their budget bill doesn’t cut “anything meaningful.” And yet, it cuts Medicaid and SNAP by nearly a trillion dollars, and could force millions of Americans off the programs. How is that not “meaningful?” nytimes.com/2025/06/02/us/…
