President Trump is sacrificing your healthcare to give more money to billionaires.

I’ve said it before, and I will say it again: ICE is endangering pregnant and postpartum women.
Nayra was taken days after giving birth and denied basic care. I led the call for oversight and action. I will keep pushing until this stops.

A Cicero woman’s baby was in the NICU. She was in ICE detention.
Nayra Guzmán was arrested 15 days after her daughter’s difficult birth. Before Trump took office, postpartum immigrants were rarely detained by ICE.

No one should have to choose between heat in winter and financial security.

Pearl Harbor changed our country forever.
Today, I remember the 2,403 Americans who were killed 84 years ago and the veterans who chose to join the fight. Their courage reminds us what service to our country truly means.

Systemic racism is real.
Black women are still not heard in our hospitals. Mercedes Wells was sent home while she was in labor. That is unacceptable. I am introducing the WELLS Act to make sure Black moms get real care that protects their lives.

The 13th Amendment became law 160 years ago today and ended slavery in the United States.
That moment began a long journey toward equality that is still unfinished. I believe we must learn from our past and stay committed to justice.

Today marks seventy years since the Montgomery Bus Boycott began in Alabama.
Black Americans took a stand for their rights, dignity, and freedoms — and changed history.
