My heart goes out to the two National Guard members who were shot today in D.C. This violence is senseless, and does nothing but make us all less safe. I am praying for their full & speedy recovery.

"Any association with him was a mistake and we regret it." That's what JPMC said on June 12, 2023, as they cut a check for $290 million to Epstein's victims. Two weeks later, my opponent Mike Quigley happily cashed a donation check from them. He did it again in 2024.

What do you think? Should Democrats call for Trump’s impeachment? I think they should, even though it’s unlikely to pass. My reasoning - get Republicans on record either for or against a president calling for executions of his political opponents, and then use it against them.

What Chuy Garcia did was completely undemocratic - on his way out the door (secretly at the last minute), he gave the voters of his district no choice. And unsurprisingly, most Democrats refused to grow a spine and call him out for it.

Earlier this morning, 21 Democrats introduced a resolution condemning Israel’s genocide in Gaza. My opponent, Mike Quigley wasn’t one of the 21. Mike - why do you continue to deny a genocide? Is it because you’re compromised and funded by AIPAC and foreign governments?

This is why we need to re-design our roads, putting cars AFTER all other modes of movement. Narrowing roads, gentle bends/curves, designated bus lanes, protected bike lanes, adding stop signs, lining the street with trees. ALL of those things are how you do it, and it will help save lives.

This could also work on fully protected bike lanes.

He better.

a speed camera is going to be installed on Jefferson St between Jackson and Monroe I support speed cameras I also support converting stroads LIKE THIS ONE into proper streets (having bus lanes, bike lanes, and possibly two-way traffic)

this was a good rally @andrefor40th.bsky.social gave a short speech after Commissioner Degnen

At what point is someone in the Senate going to show ANY leadership and call out publicly that Chuck Schumer is unfit to lead. We all know he’s unfit. Can someone please put the country ahead of their own political career?!? #shutdown

Dick Durbin needs to resign. He just sold out the people of Illinois by giving a yes vote that kicks millions off insurance. But even worse, it gives Trump & ICE a blank check to wreak havoc on our communities.

@ramirez.house.gov is one of the best representatives in Congress. The 3rd district is lucky to have her. I hope to be the same kind of representative for the 5th district.

Calling out your own party members for being ineffective isn’t being a bad teammate - it’s leading by example. Good on you @rokhanna.bsky.social #shutdown

CTA planning 24-he service on the Orange Line! Exciting news. Also, lame to see Fran characterizing transit funding as a “bailout”. You’ll NEVER hear that terminology used for roads and highways. chicago.suntimes.com/fran-spielma...

Congratulations to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! He embodies EVERYTHING you want in a mayor. Someone who is not only compassionate, energetic, motivating, but most importantly - one who truly wants to make life better for those he was elected to serve. You're a lucky city New York.

Not sure if this is normal, or a response to ICE But this elementary school, which has the highest hispanic enrollment in the area, has implemented temporary school streets during pick up Rare W from my alderman

How to win my vote: make it easier to build townhomes like these in every neighborhood

@senchrislarson.bsky.social is right. Trump threatened to shoot unarmed protesters in 2020. He's claimed he wants to be a dictator. It won't be too long until he does attack US citizens, because Congress has been way too weak in pushing back. We need our elected officials to speak up.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

I was proud to attend yesterday's protest. And it gave me hope that there are millions of people out there who think like I do. But there needs to be more. conroyforil.substack.com/p/the-protes...

No Kings. Not in 1776. Not now. Not ever.

This number should be WAAAYYYY higher. I just had to drive during rush hour (which I never do) and I counted 25+ drivers I witnessed do it. I was on the highway for 30 minutes.

Donald Trump and his administration do not care about anyone’s constitutional rights. Not mine, not yours, not those of our elected officials, and certainly not ones afforded to immigrants. We’re in the midst of an authoritarian takeover and he’s not going to leave office in 2028.

A prominent news anchor advocating for killing over 800,000 Americans. This is just flat out absurd, and it’s a reflection of the modern day Republican Party. What a deplorable thing to say. And worst of all, he’ll keep his job and face zero repercussions.

Do you agree? Do we need to pass Universal Healthcare in this country? In my opinion, it’s one the best things we could, not just from a public health standpoint but also because we can also help remove burden of crippling medical debt for millions of Americans

I would absolutely NOT vote for Hakeem Jeffries. Anyone who says they would support him for Speaker isn’t cut out to be an elected official, especially when Trump & the Republicans are the opposition.

The Social Security Trust Fund is projected to run out in 2034—which could mean cuts to benefits for millions of Americans. We can fix this without privatization, without leaving seniors behind by making ONE change to it. Here’s how: Lift the income cap.

🧵/ Donald Trump is sending the National Guard to Chicago. This isn’t about crime—it’s a blatant violation of the Constitution and a massive abuse of power. Stay calm. Stay vigilant. Know your rights.

⚠️ ACTION ALERT! ⚠️ We are 1 month away from the next opportunity for Chicago City Council to lift their citywide ban on accessory dwelling units, or ADUs. We need your help to make sure that they follow through! Here’s a thread about why you should care, and what you can do:
