Tomorrow, I will vote to release the Epstein files. Survivors deserve justice, and the public deserves the truth. These records—potentially including financial documents revealing Epstein’s associates—are key to getting to the bottom of what happened and preventing future abuse.

Donald Trump’s promises aren’t worth the paper they’re written on. The affordability of American health care can’t depend on him keeping his word — and I won’t support any deal built on delay, deception, and empty promises. My full statement:

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

I demanded access to the Broadview ICE facility to conduct oversight — as is my right as a Member of Congress.
I was denied.
No accountability. No transparency. THIS is the Trump Administration.

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem won’t let the American people see what is going on beyond this barricade at the Broadview ICE facility — even as ICE terrorizes our Illinois communities.
It’s absurd and it’s un-American. We demand transparency and accountability NOW.

Donald Trump’s threats to jail Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson are what autocrats do — not American presidents.
In America, we uphold the rule of law. We don’t imprison our political opponents — we defend democracy. And I’ll keep fighting to make sure we always do.

Secretary Noem is abusing her power, spreading baseless conspiracy theories to justify militarizing our streets.
She must answer for it under oath. That’s why I introduced legislation to stop any president from federalizing the National Guard without a governor’s consent.

President Trump is refusing to negotiate to keep the government open and extend health care tax credits. If he won't come to the table, 30,000 in my district face skyrocketing premiums & 27,000 will lose coverage—a 60-year-old couple could pay $13,000 more. I'm fighting for a deal to save coverage.

President Trump’s dismissal of violence faced by women is outrageous and insulting.
But given his past friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, this attitude comes as no surprise.

The ICE raids in Elgin and Des Plaines are shameful and reckless.
U.S. citizens were cuffed, detained, and tased.
Families, small businesses, and our economy are paying the price for Trump’s political gimmicks.

I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Illinois Governor Jim Edgar. His legacy of service, bipartisanship & community will not be forgotten. Priya and I send our deepest condolences to his family.

President Trump slashed renewable energy programs—leaving Illinois families with higher bills this summer. I’ll keep fighting for clean energy that lowers costs and strengthens our economy.

The lives lost on September 11, 2001, in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Stoystown, PA, will never be forgotten. And we will always be grateful for the courage shown by the first responders who risked and sacrificed their own lives to save others.

I’m horrified by the news that Charlie Kirk has been shot. My prayers are with him, his family, and all affected. Political violence is unacceptable in every form. If violence replaces dialogue, none of us are safe.

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse deserve full transparency. We still don’t have most of the financial records, including over $1B in wire transfers, that could reveal the truth.
The Justice Dept. must release the Epstein files now, and I won't stop fighting to get them.

This is disturbing, disgusting, and extremely troubling.
Trump didn’t just leave a salacious note in Epstein’s Birthday Book - he added a lewd drawing, then lied about it for years.
If he lied about this, what else is he hiding?
The full Epstein files must be released now.

Trump’s illegal attempt to deploy the National Guard to our cities was dangerous and wrong. I’m relieved the courts stopped him.
But remember: these stunts are meant to distract from his mounting failures and the Epstein files.

President Trump’s reported plan to stage mass immigration raids from Naval Station Great Lakes is reckless and unacceptable. He may be willing to trample on the Constitution, but the people of Chicago never will — and neither will I. My full statement: krishnamoorthi.house.gov/media/press-...

Always grateful to meet with my friend Luis Gutiérrez — a trailblazer in Congress whose leadership and tireless fight for working families, immigrants, and justice have left an enduring legacy. His example continues to inspire me to carry forward the values he championed.

President Trump is manufacturing a crisis in Chicago to distract from his failure to tackle rising prices and his attempts to bury the Epstein files. Sending troops into our city—as he did in D.C. & L.A.—is illegal and unconstitutional. We’ll fight it in court.

When automatic license plate reader technology is used to undermine local public safety laws, it erodes trust and violates policies meant to protect our communities.
This investigation is about ensuring Americans are not tracked or targeted just for driving on our roads.

Jim Lovell embodied courage and grace, guiding Apollo 13 safely home from the edge of tragedy. The work of his crew and NASA’s team on the ground bound the world in wonder and proved that human resilience and ingenuity can light even the darkest hours. May he rest in peace.
