I'm running for U.S. Senate to continue my fight for Illinois families 💪
For so many of us, living the American Dream is synonymous with buying a home. Today, that opportunity is slipping out of grasp for millions of people.

That's why I introduced the First Home Affordability Act ⬇️

According to Zillow, the average price of an Illinois home has reached more than $275,000, marking an increase of almost 35% compared to five years ago.

Today on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jews and countless others murdered in the Holocaust, and we recommit ourselves to fighting back against antisemitism, hate, and bigotry in all its forms.

The American Dream is slipping away from millions of people, and we’re left with only two options: We either roll over, or fight. I’m asking you to step up and fight with me, Illinois.

It's almost time for me to hit the stage and share my vision for Illinois with all of you!

❌ Not one more dollar for Trump’s DHS.
❌ Kristi Noem must answer for this.
❌ ICE agents out of our cities.
That’s what we’re fighting for.

Another person shot and killed by masked federal agents. It is past time for Donald Trump and Kristi Noem to be held accountable for the lawlessness they’ve unleashed on our communities.

We demand answers, accountability, and agents out of our cities now.

A video appears to shows federal agents wrestling a man to the ground then shooting him. The Department of Homeland Security said the man was armed with a gun.

ICE agents are operating without any accountability or oversight, and in front of our very eyes their tactics are becoming more hostile and cruel.

That's why I voted NO yesterday on the DHS funding package. Not one more dollar for this lawlessness.

The episode is a reminder of the growing number of children, likely hundreds of them, who've wound up in family detention centers.

I am honored to have earned the support of Alderman Anthony Beale!

Alderman Beale is the kind of leader Chicago needs. His work is grounded in the community, guided by results, and proven over decades of trusted service.

I look forward to continuing to work with him to help Chicagoans thrive.

53 years after the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, millions of women now live in states where they are denied the fundamental right to make their own health care decisions.

We must continue to fight until reproductive freedom is the law of the land.

Working families and small businesses are being pushed to the brink, paying 96% of the cost incurred by Trump's Tariffs.

That's why my PlantoLowerCosts.com includes putting an end to Trump's blanket tariffs.

Illinois families spent *over $1,700* more in 2025 because of inflation on Donald Trump.

Working families can't afford the Trump Economy, and they need leaders in the Senate who will fight to bring down costs, increase opportunity, and make the American Dream possible again.

Across Illinois, hard-working people are struggling just to stay afloat while the promise of financial stability and opportunity slip further and further out of reach.

I'm running for Senate to stand up for the folks fighting to achieve their American Dream.

It was an honor to celebrate the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. with the Rainbow PUSH Coalition this morning!

Today, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

His legacy, and the movement he catalyzed, underscores the impact that one person's determination – along with collective action – can have on society.

May his work inspire the positive change we can make in our own communities.

More than 60% of Americans say Trump "hasn’t paid enough attention to the country’s most important problems."

Yet the Republican-controlled Senate continues to support his extreme agenda.

It's time to flip the Senate and get to work delivering for Americans.

Donald Trump is threatening to use the military against Americans because his abuse of power knows no bounds.

We must stand united against yet another intimidation tactic from the Bully in Chief.

Right now, hardworking families are being priced out of lifesaving care because Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress have chosen politics over the people they represent.

I'm fighting back with everything I have, and I'm honored to do so alongside Healthcare for Action!
