From a constituent in Chicago, ILLower Costs, Repeal the Jones Act

From a verified voter in Normal, ILSupport SB4214 With Energy Efficiency and Power Cap Amendments
Vote yes on SB4214, the Artificial Intelligence Data Center Moratorium Act, and strengthen it with amendments that address energy consumption directly.

From a constituent in Geneva, ILNO to Triumphal Arch at Memorial Circle
Regarding Trump’s Triumphal Arch at Memorial Circle: How does this help actual veterans? Ones that are alive? I'm 100% certain that the money spent to build this would be much better used on medical care, housing, or groceries for veterans that are suffering. And since the USA constantly seems to i
From a verified voter in Skokie, ILThe Attorney General is the nation’s top law enforcement officer, not the president’s personal attorney.

From a constituent in Carlinville, ILStop elimination of subsided student loans & keep college available for all
The GOP House Appropriations Committee just released the 2027 bill for the Labor/Health Human Services/Education subcommittee. One of the clauses eliminates subsidized student loans altogether.

From a verified voter in Batavia, ILYes on Ukraine Support Act, NO approval or funding for Independence Arch.
First, I strongly urge Senator Duckworth to vote to pass the Ukraine Support Act. This legislation provides critical aid to our ally and strengthens sanctions against Russia as Ukraine continues to defend itself against the invasion. We need to be on the side if right and that is Ukraine’s side!
From a verified voter in Highland Park, ILRIN 0348-AB88 Destruction of US Scientific Excellence

From a constituent in Chicago, ILCo-Sponsor and Pass H.R. 40 to Study Reparations for Black Americans
Co-sponsor and advance H.R. 40 to the floor for a vote.
