Yesterday, we celebrated Veterans Day. It is an honor to serve our veterans in the 20th district. I see how they work daily to improve communities across our city and country. Their service goes beyond their uniform. This Veterans Day, we honor those who have served & continue to serve our country.

For 1.9 million Illinoisans and over 26,000 folks in my district, SNAP isn’t just extra help – it’s their only means of survival. Losing benefits will mean losing nourishment, stability and peace of mind for those already struggling to make ends meet. www.feedingillinois.org/food-resourc...

I am once again appalled at the callousness these agents displayed at their most recent operation, stooping so low as to target day care teachers. It is inexcusable for armed agents to barge in and out of several daycare classrooms to apprehend a teacher in front of young students.

Last week, I voted to protect sensitive locations against overreach by federal agents, as we have seen all too often in Chicago these past few months. No one should feel scared to go to the doctor, pick their kids up from daycare, or testify in court against their abuser. youtu.be/6envfoNbY3Q
