“Release the Money Now”: Congressman Danny K. Davis, Local Leaders Demand FEMA Relief for Chicago Flood Victims, State Rep. Ford: National Guard should be deployed to assist residents with flooded basements. For message:

On Tuesday, August 26, 2025, CONGRESSMAN DANNY K. DAVIS AND STATE REP. LA SHAWN K. FORD TO HOLD PRESS CONFERENCE ON FEMA FUNDING IN ILLINOIS: Residents want FEMA and HUD funding, not the National Guard

Last Week, I proudly joined with members of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s family, the current SSA Commissioner Frank Bisignano, former SSA Commissioner Martin O’Malley, and the National Academy of Social Insurance to commemorate the 90th anniversary of Social Security.

Proud to serve as a dissertation committee member for Dr. Tumia Romero, my Chief of Staff, whose research breaks ground on the unique challenges faced by African American females reentering society after incarceration. Read more:

I rise in strong opposition & could never vote for this Big, Bad, Inhumane & Ugly bill because it will wreck health care delivery, take food from hungry children, sentence seniors to early deaths, end jobs, and ruin our economy just to give the super rich more power & wealth.

Medicaid is NOT a piggy bank for billionaires! I reject the cruel GOP bill that makes poor people poorer, sick people sicker, and hungry people hungrier. Call your Republican Senators to tell them to REJECT the cruel GOP Budget plan - to vote NO on the GOP Tax Scam 2022243121

Today, I reminded the new Social Security Commissioner that he has a responsibility to protect Social Security for every American. I made clear that I will fight to protect Social Security & SSI benefits for seniors, children, people with disabilities, & serious illnesses.

Once again, Trump acts like a king—ignoring Congress, dismissing intelligence, and pushing us toward war. The people want peace and diplomacy, not bombs. Let’s negotiate, not destroy. Like the song, War: What is it good for? Absolutely nothing. #PeaceNotWar #DiplomacyFirst

Congressman Danny K. Davis and the Illinois Delegation Urge Accountability Following Blocked Visit to Broadview ICE Center, Raise Concerns Over Trump-Era Policies

U. S. Representative Danny K. Davis will convene a virtual "Ask the Congressman" Town hall meeting. This meeting is scheduled for June 18, 2025, at 6:00 p.m CST. RSVP here:

In the Ways & Means hearing, I stood against the GOP's cruel "One Big Beautiful" bill. It rips health care from 16M Americans—including 498K in IL—slashes child & family programs, and gives tax breaks to the rich. It's Robin Hood in reverse. I reject it. #ProtectFamilies

Congressman Danny K. Davis was temporarily waived onto the House Oversight Committee to participate in proceedings concerning Gov. JB Pritzker. While not a standing member of the committee, he was granted permission to join due to the issue’s relevance to IL & his constituents.

To the family of the Honorable Charles B. Rangel. Charlie was a great mentor and a wonderful friend. As long as we remember the Affordable Care Act, we will remember Charlie B. Rangel. May he rest in peace.

Proud to announce the reintroduction of the Second Chance Reauthorization Act of 2025! Thousands in Chicago & over 442,000 nationwide have benefited since I authored the original law in 2008. Reentry is a right, not a privilege. #SecondChanceAct #JusticeReform #IL07

The criminal charge against Rep. LaMonica McIver is outrageous, unjust, and politically motivated. As a Member of Congress, she has the constitutional authority to inspect federal facilities unannounced. She was upholding her oath—not breaking the law. #IStandWithMcIver

The House Ways and Means tax bill released today is skewed in favor of rich people, is even more costly than the original 2017 law, and fails to deliver for working-class families and small businesses.

Just in! Congressman Danny K. Davis at Ways and Means budget hearing standing up for children, Social Security, Medicaid and Healthcare. HANDS OFF!
