#RKWeekInReview: I’m working hard to be your next U.S. Senator. From Kankakee to Tinley Park, Monmouth & Chicago — and into Dolton to launch the WELLS Act. I was the first to bring Black maternal health to Congress, and I’m not slowing down now

Native American Heritage Day is a time to honor and celebrate the rich cultures, accomplishments, contributions, and enduring heritage of indigenous peoples—because America’s story begins with Native Americans. We recognize their profound and lasting impact on our nation.

On this Thanksgiving Day, I am thankful for you and your support, words of wisdom, lifting me up, and most of all, making me laugh. Enjoy a wonderful holiday with your friends and family.

Saddened by the shooting that critically wounded two National Guard members. Holding them and their families close and grateful for the swift response from law enforcement. Gun violence cannot define who we are as a nation.

I first raised maternal mortality in Congress. Mercedes Wells and her baby are doing well—but what she endured is appalling. I’m introducing the WELLS Act to require Safe Discharge Labor Plans, and I’ll carry this fight for mothers to the U.S. Senate.

Week in Review: From Chicago Heights to Ogle County to Lake County and back to Chicago, the support has been amazing. I’m working hard to be your next U.S. Senator, and the conversations across Illinois keep fueling this fight.

Today, and every day, we remember the victims and survivors of anti-transgender hate crimes. Trans rights are human rights. #TransDayOfRemembrance #TransAwarenessWeek

While Trump urges business owners to oppose wage increases, I’m committed to raising the minimum wage to $17 an hour by 2030. Because People Over Profits isn’t a slogan—it’s the reason I’m running for the U.S. Senate.

As I work to earn your vote for the U.S. Senate, I sat down to answer questions from Illinois voters. These conversations fuel this campaign.

Tonight I shared my People Over Profits platform with the Lake County Democrats and thanked the incredible north suburban neighbors who hit the doors and passed petitions for me. I’m running for Senate to fight for you in every corner of Illinois.

Finished the day at the HRC Chicago Annual Dinner, proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community. From creating my LGBTQ+ Task Force to fighting discrimination and defending equality, I’m ready to bring this commitment to the United States Senate.

Taking my Senate campaign to every corner of Illinois matters. At today's second stop, the Ogle County Democrats Meet & Greet, I shared my People Over Profits platform and heard directly from Democrats in northwestern Illinois. Grateful for the conversation!

Started the morning with the Black McDonald’s Operators Association at their turkey giveaway. Food is medicine—and that’s why I introduced the FOOD for Health Act. I’ll take that fight to the Senate so every family gets the healthy food they deserve.

“It’s one thing to be a fighter, but you’ve got to be a winner too. You can’t just fight. You have to have things to show for it,” she said, touting her ability to work across the political aisle.

In our inaugural Week in Review, it’s clear Illinois is fired up! Another great week on the trail to be your next U.S. Senator. People want a fighter and a winner. I’ve delivered for Illinois, and I’m ready to keep going. See you on the trail!

Rocking my blue & gold today and feeling grateful. Happy Founders Day to my Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. sorors! Proud to be part of a sisterhood that uplifts, leads, and serves while carrying a powerful legacy of service, scholarship, and sisterhood. 💙💛

Heading back to DC to vote HELL NO — because every American deserves affordable health care. We must extend ACA tax credits and lower costs for working families. This is my fight in the House, and it’s why I’m running for the Senate.
November 12, 2025 at 2:05 PM
Thank you to the Leaders Network for a powerful discussion today in East Garfield Park. Broadview Mayor Katrina Thompson’s courage in the face of ICE pressure is a reminder of the strength in our communities. Grateful for Pastor Cy Fields’ guidance in trying times.

Happy Veterans Day. Thank you to all who have served and continue to serve. Your sacrifice reminds us that freedom is not free. We honor your courage today and every day.

Thanks to the Harvard Club of Chicago for a great discussion on the issues affecting all of us. I believe the fight ahead is about affordability and putting people over profits and political games.

I am hopeful Senate Democrats will hold the line against the cruelty and lies of the Trump administration. I am prepared to stand with House Democrats and fight for the American people.
November 10, 2025 at 12:05 AM
As per usual Donald Trump LIED, costs are not down & it’s absolutely ridiculous for him to continue gaslighting the American people!
