Republicans have shut down the government – and if they get their way, 30,000 people in our district will see their health insurance costs go up. We can’t afford another Republican price-hike for seniors and families just to fund more tax cuts for the rich.

We cannot open a government, and shut down people’s healthcare. I’m holding the line for Illinoisans.

This week, I’m kicking off a series of Protect Our Rights events across our community to share resources and hear your experiences and concerns with ICE and DHS under the Trump Administration. The first stop is in Aurora this Friday, October 10th. RSVP here: bit.ly/communityfor...

📢 Important update for DPI Gala attendees: There have been changes to tomorrow’s program. We’re honored to welcome Governor Tim Walz and Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva to join us in Chicago for the Democratic Party of Illinois’ Annual Gala.

Ready to amplify your voice & connect with a community fighting against the fascist regime? Join us at the biggest No Kings rally in the Chicago burbs! RSVP: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even... tinyurl.com/ycxbkwuc

HIT THE STREETS IN THE CHICAGO SUBURBS ON OCTOBER 18! ✌🏻 Recreation Park Soccer Field in Arlington Heights from 3-5pm. BE THERE. 👊🏼 www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

I’m proud of the healthcare system we’ve built—where healthcare is a right, not a privilege. CountyCare serves nearly 400K members & has covered over 1M residents. It's the only gov-sponsored, provider-led Medicaid plan in IL. It’s known as the highest quality plan in the state.

Donald Trump & those spreading his false narratives are waging a deliberate campaign of misinformation. They paint our communities as lawless, stoking fear for political gain. To hear this steady drumbeat of lies & mischaracterization of our neighborhoods infuriates me.

“King Donald The First. F*ck that.” Robert De Niro wants to see you in the streets on October 18 to show the world that America has no kings, and power still belongs to the people: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

I was honored to attend the Celebration of Hope luncheon hosted in Rolling Meadows. This fundraiser supports the Rolling Meadows Human Services Department that assists those experiencing domestic abuse. Thank you to the City of Rolling Meadows and the Hope Fund for championing an important cause!

This Saturday is our final push for signature gathering to get on the ballot! If you’ve been looking for a chance to get involved, join us to talk to voters and get the signatures we need to be on the ballot. RSVP to our campaign manager Brandon: [email protected].

I cherished every day I got to call myself a Soldier—but ordering troops to intimidate the very Americans they sacrifice to protect doesn’t make us safer.   Trump is wasting millions to terrorize citizens exercising their First Amendment rights. It's wrong.

U.S. REP. RAMIREZ (D): "Over the last nine months, Trump & Republicans in Congress have been very clear about their priorities ... They have cut our health care. They are closing our hospitals ... snatching our loved ones off the street ... What part of that is golden age for the American people?"

Per ABC 7 Chicago, 500 National Guard Troops arrive in Elwood, IL. They are stationed in makeshift barracks preparing for their occupation of Chicago.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on President Donald Trump saying that him and Chicago Mayor Johnson should both be "jailed": "He's a coward. He says a lot of things to the camera. He likes to pretend to be a tough guy. Come and get me. Come and get me."

ICYMI: If you are a Cook County homeowner, you may be eligible for property tax relief! There are THREE DAYS LEFT to apply and funding is limited. Visit hrf.cookcountyil.gov

I recently got to visit the Center on Cottage Grove. As the Woodlawn satellite site of the Center on Halsted, the Center on Cottage Grove serves our city's Black and Brown LGBTQ+ residents on the South Side.

Hold the line and don’t surrender. For our unions. For our veterans. For working families across the country — I will hold the line and never surrender.

Pritzker: "This guy is unhinged. He's insecure. He's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump. If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me."

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem won’t let the American people see what is going on beyond this barricade at the Broadview ICE facility — even as ICE terrorizes our Illinois communities. It’s absurd and it’s un-American. We demand transparency and accountability NOW.

🔥 This Congressional fighter is our headliner at the #NoKings rally in Arlington Heights, Illinois. DON'T MISS IT. @ramirez.house.gov RSVP: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

U.S. REP. RAMIREZ (D-IL): "Donald Trump, Noem, Hegseth and all those criminals in office, they want to use their power to try to break our spirit. But here with federal workers here in the city of Chicago and our downtown, we know something very clear: that the people united will never be defeated."

➡️ A friendly reminder about our monthly meeting TONIGHT at 7pm. It’s more important than ever to learn what you can do to protect your constitutional freedoms. #Illinois #Democrats #ElkGroveTownship RSVP/INFO: tinyurl.com/3trvhyyb

Donald Trump’s threats to jail Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson are what autocrats do — not American presidents. In America, we uphold the rule of law. We don’t imprison our political opponents — we defend democracy. And I’ll keep fighting to make sure we always do.

President Trump didn’t just shut down the government to score political points—he’s trying to shut down the truth. As investigations close in on Epstein’s network, his allies are now blocking Congress from being sworn in. They’re terrified of transparency.

This is what dictators and authoritarians do, not Presidents of the United States of America.

We must all stand up and speak out.

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

📺 I have a plan to take on Trump’s abuses of power. Like my name, it’s too long for a 30-second ad – or Bluesky. The highlights: ➡️Repeal Trump’s Medicaid cuts ➡️Rein in ICE ➡️Stop presidents from deploying the military against us Watch below and read the full plan at TrumpAccountabilityPlan.com.

If the National Governors Association chooses to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization. We should be standing as one against the idea that Donald Trump can call up the National Guard against our will.
