Stop ICE from committing crimes against our people.

Please do not let ICE continue to terrorize the innocent, hard working people of our state. They are ignoring our right to due process. They are ignoring the constitution.

What will we do when Illinois is assaulted like California?

I am writing to you as a constituent in the wake of federal agents' assault on Sen. Padilla after he confronted the DHS secretary. This incident, and the continuing escalation of the federal government against its citizens in LA, is a red line. We know that Illinois is next in the crosshairs after C

Reject undemocratic proposals in budget bill protecting voter rights

Please do everything it takes to close the Northeast Illinois transit funding gap! I’ve seen republicans spinning this as a city vs suburbs issue, which is completely absurd.

Transit legislation

Like most Chicagoans, I rely on our robust public transit system in my every day life. The general assembly's failure to even vote on a bill to fund transit will make it much harder for me to get around the city. It will also cost Illinois's economy billions of dollars! Public transit is an essentia

Hold the Coast Guard accountable for losing explosives and not communicating it

It is alarming and unacceptable that multiple phosphorus pyrotechnic armed flares were lost by the U.S. Coast Guard and littered in Lake Michigan “earlier this month” (no news outlets or the Coast Guard are providing more specific timeframes), and that the public was not notified until just yesterda

Reinstate rules restricting unchecked data broker surveillance

The concerning decision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to withdraw proposed rules aimed at restricting data brokers' ability to sell Americans' sensitive personal information without consent is deeply troubling. These companies operate within a multibillion-dollar industry built
