Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives. He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

ICE continues their violation of our civil liberties by targeting community members for exercising their constitutionally protected freedom of speech and right to protest. We will will not back down and we will protect our communities.

If you are wondering what you can do to stop the atrocities in Gaza, I have a bill for that. This Block the Bombs Act would withhold weapons to Israel and demand they comply with US and international human rights laws. Is your member of Congress a sponsor?

I’d like to wish Senator Bernie Sanders a Happy Birthday🥳. His commitment and clarity in fighting for a working people's agenda continues to resonate with millions across our country. Thank you Bernie for inspiring and energizing generations of working people to fight for the future we deserve.

Grateful for partners like Ted Mason for Cook County Commissioner, Mayor Andrew Goczkowski and the Main Township Democrats who were out with us today talking with neighbors (and their pups) about their concerns and collecting signatures to get great democratic candidates on the ballot.

Thank you to everyone that came to the 33rd Ward Working Families canvass launch. It's an honor to knock on doors with dedicated neighbors and progressive allies who are on the front lines protecting our communities from Trump's hateful agenda.

Trump swore an oath to protect the American people and defend our constitution. Instead he is declaring war on Americans, while invoking symbols of the Confederacy. It's treason and he should be impeached.

Happy Labor Day! My commitment to fighting for workers and their unions remains unwavering.

We don’t need the president’s troops on our streets. Read my op-ed: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Donald Trump is trying to ensure we stop protesting. He's trying to shove us into submission. Let me be clear, the Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus will do anything in our power to hold the line.

Our movement is not backing down. Together with Bernie Sanders, we are taking on the oligarchs and fighting for a progressive agenda that is built with, by, and for working people. Photo credit: @raysrivera.pro

A wonderful canvassing event with Committeeperson Michael Rabbitt, State Rep Lindsey LaPointe, Commissioner Jessica Vasquez, and Dems45. I am grateful to be supported by dedicated and passionate neighbors who take the time to engage with their community in order to protect and sustain our democracy.

🚨Location Update: Join us at the UIC Forum. RSVP at bit.ly/rsvpchicago

I am excited to receive the endorsement of Committeeperson Michael Rabbitt and Dems45, neighbors who are organizing their communities and fighting to protect our democracy. I’ll be joining them this Saturday to collect petition signatures in the 45th Ward. Join us! @dems45th.bsky.social

Let's not mince words about what we're seeing with our own eyes. These are the unfiltered ramblings and actions of someone who wants to be king and who doesn't intend to be accountable to voters.

Trump and his oligarch friends have a clear agenda: tax cuts for the wealthy funded by working people. They enrich themselves while an authoritarian President destroys our democracy. Join me in sending a clear message: we are fighting back and we are not backing down. 🔗RSVP at bit.ly/rsvpchicago

It's a pleasure to be part of a team of fierce fighters who unapologetically show up for our communities. I'm proud to support Norma Hernandez and Maria Sinkule and uplift our shared commitment to working families. Join us as we collect petition signatures to get back on the ballot this Sunday!

A huge Thank You goes out to the 38th Ward Democratic Organization for their endorsement and continued support. Excited to knock doors and talk with our neighbors at this Sunday's Petition Kick-Off. Will you join us?

I am excited to once again receive the endorsement of United Neighbors of the 35th Ward, a mighty force for progressive power building on the northwest side. I can't wait to join them this Saturday at their BBQ Block party to kick off petition season. Come by and join us!

Yet again, another Trump executive order has been struck down in federal court because it’s unconstitutional. Last week, federal judges invoked the 10th Amendment when dismissing Trump’s hateful lawsuit against sanctuary cities.

Over the last decade, Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans have attempted to paint an image of our immigrant communities that dehumanizes us, vilifies us, and erases our culture and heritage. This picture is a direct affront to MAGA's vile and hateful narrative.

It's past time for Congress to follow the lead of the American people who want an end to the devastation in Gaza. I introduced the Block the Bombs Act because Congress has a responsibility to use our legislative and oversight authority to end Netanyahu's genocidal war. Is your member a cosponsor?

This past weekend marked 35 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act, a landmark piece of legislation that created pathways for millions to live with dignity and respect.

Netanyahu is using hunger as a weapon of war. After a two year military campaign that has collectively punished the people of Gaza and denied them humanitarian aid, we are now all bearing witness to the natural conclusion of these war crimes: mass starvation and death.

Cages that imprison over 50 people a piece. Concrete walls that ensure those people never see the light of day. That is what our taxpayer dollars are going towards. Not community services or healthcare, but a mega prison.

Thank you to the Addison Township Young Dems for your commitment to turn your passion into action. It was great to share and reflect with you on why we do the work we do in Congress. The next generation of Democrats is looking bright.

If only the GOP fought as hard to protect working families as they are fighting to cover for Trump and their donors…

I was honored to stand before United Neighbors of the 35th Ward to discuss our work in Congress, and to answer the questions of the people who sent me there. I am rooted in community and ready to continue building the strength and power of our movement together.

I appreciate being invited to meet with the 39th Ward Neighbors United. I am grateful for the people who sent me to Congress, and welcome the opportunity to report back to the communities I am rooted in and accountable to.

Secretary Kristi Noem has taken every opportunity to demonize our neighbors, abuse DHS’s power, and lie to our community. Not only do we demand a FULL investigation into her DHS’ unlawful operation, we DEMAND Noem's immediate resignation.

While the Trump administration criminalizes dissent, normalizes cruelty, and rejects compassion all over the country, our movement is building power inside and outside of Congress to fight for the people. Relentlessly, unapologetically, and boldly building a future that is brighter for all.

Trump administration is consolidating power. Behind secrecy and lack of accountability, they have bulldozed over our Constitution, laws, and check and balances. They are playing by the book of an authoritarian. It is our job to fight back.

It is always an honor to be amongst supporters and friends from CAIR Action PAC. Thank you for your partnership in standing up for a political movement that centers peace, human rights, and honoring our shared humanity!

I'm thrilled to celebrate the unapologetic, progressive Adelita Grijalva as Arizona’s 7th new Congresista. The fight for equality, justice, and true transformation is won through the power of the people, and the people have spoken.

The mass deportation of those who harvest our food, the threats to steal health care from children and seniors, and undervaluing of labor are not coincidences. Taken together, they are the result of unchecked capitalism unleashed on working families.

I'm always filled with joy when I get to support the work of progressive Latinas showing up for our immigrant communities. ¡Adelante!

ICE’s presence in Humboldt Park this week has warned us that our city’s festivals might be a target of ICE.

I am proud to endorse Adelita Grijalva for Congress. She is a proven and unapologetically progressive leader that will champion our people centered movement in Congress. Adelita is the leader Arizona needs to meet this moment and fight for our communities in Washington.

We are excited to announce our first slate of endorsements for our re-election campaign. I am grateful to continue to count on the support of this mighty progressive Latine coalition.

Grassroots people power is what our campaign is built on. Thank you, Working Families Party Wolf Pack, for coming together to support our people-powered movement and our people-centered agenda!

H.R. 275 recently passed in the House–a dangerous piece of legislation that labels our immigrant communities “national security threats,” without the requirement of proof of criminal wrongdoing. We’ve seen this playbook before: discrimination, fear-mongering, and division.

As we kick off our campaign for re-election, it was a pleasure to sit in conversation with our neighbors in Winfield last month. Meetings like this are what fuel my work in Congress.

Happy Fourth of July to everyone who calls our country home. Today, we celebrate the foundation that makes our country great: our diversity, our multi-racial democracy, and our commitment to justice and freedom for all.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Republicans just sold out the American people to help their billionaire donors stuff their pockets. Their disastrous agenda will devastate working people. Donald Trump and the Republican majorities in Congress must bear the consequences of their actions.

As Democrats delay a vote on Trump's Big Ugly Bill, you should ask yourself, has my Republican Member of Congress sold out the American people? You still have time to call them, tell them to grow a backbone and vote NO.

Trump's Big Ugly bill is returning to the house and I am returning to DC to vote against it. I'm clear that this bill is as deceitful and dangerous as ever. 1.1 million people in Illinois may lose their healthcare so that the ultra-wealthy can get richer. It's that simple.

$25 million in super PAC money couldn't buy an out of touch establishment the NY Mayor's seat because people want new, bold, authentic, and progressive leaders that will fight to lift up working families. Congratulations to Zohran Mamdani and the grassroots community that made this victory possible.

Yesterday, surrounded by my community, we launched our re-election campaign for Congress. We recommitted ourselves to fight for the future our communities deserve. A future rooted in justice, equity, peace building, and people centered politics.
