🚨ATTENTION VOTERS🚨 Today, my office launched an election resource hub to help you get ready for Election Day. Voters should rest assured that in Illinois, we are focused on facilitating, not limiting, access to the ballot box: tinyurl.com/2pfb93en
This settlement ensures Posh will no longer sell unauthorized e-cigarettes with flavors that appeal to youth. I remain committed to protecting our communities from the harms of illegal and unregulated e-cigarettes: tinyurl.com/2u8z5sd2
Tonight is #NationalNightOut. Members from my office will be participating across the state to engage with the community and share resources. Hope to see you there!
The administration's new TANF policy violates the law and is a blatant and pretextual effort to politically target families who are lawfully receiving critical temporary assistance: tinyurl.com/4yk8z2am
For the 3rd time, I am filing to oppose the Trump administration’s illegal tariffs. I'll continue this fight as long as the administration attempts to force its tariffs upon American consumers and businesses: tinyurl.com/342c2ben
My office secured a win in a lawsuit filed by the DOJ attempting to obtain unredacted data containing Illinois voters’ sensitive personal information.
I'm calling on the FCC to strengthen Know Your Customer rules and help keep bad actors from accessing the networks they need to place these illegal calls: https://tinyurl.com/232ne9ae
Instead of working to expand access to affordable healthcare, the administration continues to gut essential healthcare programs at every turn. I will continue to advocate for all Illinoisans to have access to affordable healthcare: tinyurl.com/msuyb345

This is no time to terminate TPS. I’m calling on Congress to extend the protection Haitians deserve, restore judicial oversight of the TPS program and create a pathway for permanent residency for TPS holders: tinyurl.com/46kzac95
As we celebrate July as #DisabilityPrideMonth and the 36th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I am proud to highlight my office’s continued work to achieve a more inclusive Illinois this month and around the year: tinyurl.com/2vb5xtxt
The commemoration of Emmett Till Day in Illinois reminds us that we must not allow hate crimes directed toward Black people to be normalized. Remembering Mamie Till-Mobley's courage to have an open casket funeral reminds us of our obligation to fully expose the brutality and gravity of racism.
Once again, Pres. Trump is putting at risk our national security and the security of our states by targeting billions of dollars in funding. I'm disappointed, but not surprised that I must file a 3rd lawsuit to protect this funding: tinyurl.com/3mskavwb

At a time of increasing costs for Americans, generic drug companies colluded with each other to raise prices on needed medications relied upon by millions of Americans. I'm pleased with this settlement and look forward to continuing to hold drug manufacturers accountable: tinyurl.com/2ayxnjem
Some fintech lenders use predatory tactics to target the financially vulnerable and trap them in debt. Granting these companies banking charters would allow bad actors to dodge consumer protections and pose a threat to our nation’s financial system: tinyurl.com/2zewn5v3
23andMe compromised the personal data, and in some cases genetic information, of nearly 200,000 Illinoisans. This settlement will help ensure that companies increase protections to keep consumers’ personal data secured: tinyurl.com/4sdvs9xa
I was happy to speak at this year's ILORCA Annual Meeting, and am grateful for the ongoing partnership with IL Retail Merchants Association as well as retailers and law enforcement partners. Our collaborations have resulted in many successful operations, and I look forward to future success.
This proposed rule is one of the most sweeping and brazen attempts by this administration to unlawfully target federal funding to states, politicizing billions of dollars for crucial projects and programs. I stand in strong opposition to this rule: tinyurl.com/3nbvc85x
