Resigning from Congress should not allow Members to avoid accountability for allegations as serious as those faced by Matt Gaetz. The Ethics Committee has often released reports on former Members. That's why I'm forcing a vote on the release of the Gaetz Report.

For far too long, U.S. energy policy has placed energy producers’ interest above the interest of the American people. I teamed up with Rep. Jennifer McClellan and Senator Dick Durbin to introduce the FERC Greenhouse Gas and Environmental Justice Policy Act of 2025, legislation

Clean energy is cheap energy. U.S. energy policy should prioritize the needs of energy consumers, not energy producers. I teamed up with Rep. Mike Levin to unveil the Cheap Energy Agenda, a consumer-focused approach to United States energy policy that ensures Americans have

The Trump Administration's plans will increase the number of Illinoisans experiencing homelessness. As temperatures fall, 7,500 more Illinoisans are at risk of losing their housing. This is pure evil. https://t.co/aojoOPlLtk

Feds said they plan to shift $3.9 billion from long-term housing to housing that requires work and addiction treatment. More than 7,500 Illinoisans could lose their permanent housing.

Donald Trump is openly against affordability. Costs have skyrocketed because of the president's tariffs. He signed the largest cut to health care in American history and refuses to extend subsidies that can help lower premium prices. Electricity bills have increased by 11%

President Trump is growing frustrated as Americans struggle with higher prices and pessimism over the state of the economy.

If your electricity bill has increased in recent months, you can thank Donald Trump. This is exactly why I've proposed the Cheap Energy Agenda. Because we can increase reliability and lower your bill at the same time. https://t.co/OWOzUF73fD
