Armed Forces Day honors our heroic servicemembers for all that they do to protect our country and the freedoms we hold so dear.

Today and every day, let’s thank them for their bravery and sacrifice.

Women's health is non-negotiable. This #WomensHealthWeek , I stand with the Pro-Choice Caucus in the fight to defend reproductive freedoms.

More than 20 maternal health organizations came to the Capitol this week to share their work to support moms and moms-to-be. As co-chair of the Maternity Care Caucus, I will continue to be a loud voice for women.

Thank you to all the vendors who participated in the bipartisan Maternity Care Caucus’s Maternal Health Fair. This event is an important piece in my ongoing efforts to educate Congress about the maternal health challenges our moms face nationwide.

I was honored to receive The Root Cause Coalition’s Impact Award for my work to address inequities in our health care system. I will always work to see that Americans nationwide have access to the health resources they need.

The GOP’s proposed cuts to SNAP and other nutrition assistance programs would take food away from our nation’s most vulnerable. This feckless proposal would also inhibit USDA’s ability to help Illinois farmers after natural disasters strike. This is a bad deal for Illinoisans.

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia. As a member of the Congressional Equality Caucus, I will always challenge hate and protect the LGBTQ+ community.

House Democrats and President Biden brought the receipts this #InfrastructureWeek . 56,000 projects have already been announced to revitalize roads, bridges, public transportation, and ports. Democrats are delivering better-paying jobs for millions of Americans.

I was honored to join mom_congress to discuss the ongoing bipartisan efforts to improve maternal health outcomes. As co-chairs of the bipartisan Maternity Care Caucus, Young Kim and I are committed to ensuring that every community has access to high-quality maternal care.

On Saturday, join me for my Matteson Passport Day. This event is designed to help first-time passport applicants complete their application. To register, visit: bit.ly/MattesonPasspo…

Thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, U.S. EPA has funded over 5,000 electric and low-emission school buses. This funding has allowed IL-02 communities like Herscher to invest in new school buses for their students. #InfrastructureWeek

During #NationalFosterCareMonth , I’m calling on Congress to commit additional federal resources so that every child in foster care can have the opportunities they need to succeed.

Over 43,000 Americans lose their lives to gun violence every year. My #KellyReport sheds light on the harm gun violence causes and charts a path forward to stop the cycle of violence.

Today marks two years since a white supremacist murdered ten Black Americans in Buffalo, NY. As our nation reflects on this tragedy, we must recommit ourselves to rooting out hate and ending the gun violence epidemic.

No mother should be without quality maternal health care, regardless of where they live. I am proud to introduce the bipartisan Rural Obstetrics Readiness Act to provide targeted support for rural health care facilities across the country.

Everyone deserves access to safe, reliable water - that’s why the EPA is working hard to replace lead pipes, strengthen wastewater infrastructure, and restore bodies of water. $13 billion of Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funding is making a big difference! 💧 #InfrastructureWeek

House Democrats are working together to lower costs, grow the middle class, and defend our freedoms. We are making good on our promise to make life better for hardworking American taxpayers.

Seniors should be able to enjoy their lives without the fear of scam calls and emails. The Protecting Seniors from Emergency Scams Act will equip the FTC with additional resources to bring an end to these fraudulent schemes.
