Our military boots should be made in Belleville - not Beijing. Check out my campaign’s flagship TV ad about my fight for a future that’s not just Made in America, but Made right here in Central and Southern Illinois.

This reckless decision puts our children at risk. We need evidence-based policies from experts, not anti-vax extremism.

Did you know Illinois is home to some of the best peaches around? 🍑. August is peak season, and there’s no better time to visit an orchard, support local growers and celebrate #NationalPeachMonth!

I love Central and Southern Illinois. From the rich history of Springfield to the incredible food scene in Champaign, there’s so much to celebrate. What’s your favorite thing about IL-13? Drop a comment and let me know!.

Illinois farmers are facing real uncertainty due to reckless tariffs, canceled ag programs, and shrinking small biz support. Last month, I joined the IL Farm Bureau Roundtable to hear directly from those on the ground — it's time for real solutions and stability.

President Trump firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner should raise alarms across the political spectrum – Democrats and Republicans alike. The president is clearly trying to rig the numbers in his favor. We need transparency – not propaganda.

President Trump vowed to cut costs. What he delivered was a bill that slashes support for the most vulnerable in America while cutting taxes for billionaires.

Trump praised the Bureau of Labor Statistics – until they reported his economy is tanking. Now he’s calling them corrupt and firing the Commissioner. He’s not fixing the economy – he’s trying to rig the numbers. The American people won't let this go.

President Trump says he is firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after the weak jobs data. BLS puts out the jobs reports, CPI inflation, productivity and employment cost index, among other key statistics. This is basically unprecedented and will raise concerns about

I’m traveling across our communities to meet face-to-face with residents who want to hear how I’m standing up for them. Last week, I spoke with folks in Edwardsville and Champaign about the Trump Administration abandoning working families—and how we can demand better.

SNAP helps families put food on the table and keep their kids healthy. But instead of supporting that basic need, House Republicans are prioritizing tax cuts for billionaires.

President Trump signed the Big Beautiful Bill to give handouts to billionaires who frankly don’t need them. Working people are the ones who need a tax break. Period.

The LGBTQ+ community is under attack by the Trump Administration. Last week, I had the chance to meet with this community and hear what I can do in Washington to ensure their rights are respected and protected.

No one is above the law – not even President Trump. That’s why I’m supporting a constitutional amendment to reverse the Supreme Court’s decision to make presidents immune from criminal prosecution – restoring equal justice and accountability.

Working families shouldn’t have to work three jobs to put food on the table or get access to healthcare. RT if you agree ⬇️.

House Republicans have brought Congress to a halt because they’re scared to release the Epstein files. The American people deserve the truth. Release the files.

The Trump administration has moved to release more information about notorious sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

It was great to join Indivisible Illinois to talk about how I’m fighting back against the Trump administration’s dangerous agenda. We’re not giving up — not now, not ever.

There is nothing beautiful about cutting 10 million Americans off healthcare. There is nothing beautiful about taking away SNAP benefits for hungry families. There is nothing beautiful about raising people’s energy bills by $400. This bill is ugly – plain and simple.
