Big oil companies are getting rich off the backs of hard-working Americans. It needs to stop.

While Washington hangs our farm communities out to dry, Illinois is stepping up. It was a pleasure to join the Illinois Agricultural Legislative Roundtable. Together, we'll continue our state's historic agricultural tradition, and let farmers lead the way.

Imagine escaping an abuser only to be tracked through your phone, doxed online, or forced to face them in court. In Illinois, we’re strengthening protections for domestic violence survivors because everyone deserves to feel safe — both online and off.

When I first took office, Illinois had suffered eight credit downgrades in just a few years. Since then, we've turned it all around, earning ten credit upgrades and building up our Rainy Day Fund.

As the largest African-American parade in the country, the Bud Billiken parade gives us the chance to celebrate Chicago's rich Black history, and the bright future our young people represent. Thank you for having us!

Marching in the Bud is one of my absolute favorite summer traditions. Here's to 97 years of parading in excellence—and many more to come!

Illinois is the #1 soybean-producing state in America. Our new agreement with Indonesia will open new markets for our farmers and help them reach more customers around the world. When Illinois farmers win, we all win. www.newschannel20.com/news/local/i...

Everything is more expensive. Back-to-school shopping shouldn't be. From August 7th to August 16th, we're cutting the state sales tax on school necessities.

Illinoisans are paying the price for Trump's war in Iran while Big Oil executives are getting rich. I sent a letter to executives at the nation’s largest oil companies and demanded they give the people their money back.

We have to mobilize, stand up, and push back. It was a pleasure to join @maxwellfrost.bsky.social. Thank you to all the volunteers knocking on doors to get Democrats elected across the country.

Illinois is proud to be home to history. Happy Birthday, @barackobama.bsky.social!

Trump les quitó las estampillas de comida a cien mil personas en Illinois. Illinois les devuelve una parte.

When it came to picking a running mate, @cmitchellforlg.bsky.social was the obvious choice. Illinois would be lucky to have him as lieutenant governor.

One of the best parts of this campaign is all the Illinoisans we meet along the way.

I got into government because I believe in standing up for the most vulnerable and working families struggling to make ends meet. Right now, the federal government is doing neither.

In Illinois, we won't put our kids' safety in the hands of big tech and its predatory algorithms. That's why I was proud to sign the Children's Online Social Media Safety Act into law to reduce the harmful effects of social media on our kids.

The White House broke the law.

When politicians deliberately put up barriers to the ballot box because they don’t like who might vote, we have an obligation to call it out and fight back. We should all be sounding the alarm.

Donald Trump decided we didn’t have enough money to fund SNAP or Medicaid, but rewarding January 6th insurrectionists is still his priority. A real leader would invest in what defends democracy, not what destroys it.

I've been proud to make historic investments in higher education, and that kind of commitment pays off! This past year, nearly 190,000 students enrolled in our public universities, the highest number in 10 years!

Illinois has always led the way. By making our state a global leader in quantum, we’re turning our world-class talent and research into companies, investment, and good-paying jobs right here at home.

Donald Trump es un racista. And Darren Bailey wants to be just like him.

The energy at this year's Fiesta del Sol was unmatched! What an incredible opportunity to share the music, food, and culture that shapes Illinois' Latino community.

Why should anyone be a Democrat? Raising the minimum wage. Right to organize. Healthcare for all. Thank you for having me on the Lunch with Jamie podcast. Our episode is out now.

Darren Bailey has spent his campaign trying to convince Illinoisans that he isn't the same extremist Illinois rejected in 2022. We see right through you, Darren. www.dangerousdarrenbailey.com

When we want to hold elected officials accountable, we vote. That’s how our democracy works. Donald Trump is doing everything he can to undermine that process.

Chicago shows up for women's basketball. Simple as that. This year's @wnba.com All-Star Weekend was worth every bit of the hype.

Incredible athletes. Incredible fans. Incredible city. Thanks for making Chicago the center of the basketball world this @wnba.com All-Star Weekend!
