Support the POWER Act to Regulate Hyperscale Data Centers

I'm asking you to support the POWER Act sponsored by State Sen. Ram Villivalam and State Rep. Robyn Gabel. This legislation protects Illinois residents from shouldering the massive costs of hyperscale data centers while ensuring these facilities don't worsen our energy crisis or harm our environment

Pass War Powers Resolution, No on supplemental funding for war & H.R. 7757

First, I am so very furious about the war in Iran. American servicemembers and Iranian civilians are dying. Other countries are entering the war threatening to make it a global WWIII. Meanwhile, back at home, a majority of Americans oppose the war, gas prices are skyrocketing, and we are spending a

PROTECT THE MIDTERMS FROM FEDERAL TAKEOVER

I am writing as your constituent, and I need more than a form letter back. I need to know what Congress is actually doing — right now — to protect the 2026 midterm election from a federal takeover. This is not a hypothetical concern. President Trump has publicly and repeatedly stated he wants to "t

War powers resolution

Opposition to U.S. Involvement in Expanding Wars

I am a constituent writing to express my deep concern about the possibility of the United States becoming further involved in overseas wars. I strongly oppose policies that escalate military conflict rather than prioritize diplomacy and de-escalation. Many Americans are exhausted by decades of war,

From a constituent in Dixon, IL

Ending the war in Iran should be an urgent priority. The conflict is very unpopular with Americans with nearly 6 in 10 Americans opposing the initial strikes and large majorities opposing sending ground troops. Americans across the political spectrum are wary of another prolonged Middle East war.

From a constituent in Peoria, IL

I ask each of you to say NO to any and all parts of this Epstein war of distraction. This regime and especially this president needs to be removed, prosecuted, and held to account.

Vote no for Markwayne Mullin confirmation

Markwayne Mullin is not qualified to lead DHS. He’s lied about military and combat experience. He defends pedophiles. He’s one of the least educated senators. He has no experience whatsoever to justify him being in charge of this department or any other government agency. He was chosen by Trump bec

KIDS Act (formally KOSA) is advancing. IT MUST STOP.

Please, PLEASE oppose the KIDS Act. As AOC pointed out, any claims of "protecting the kids" is a obvious smokescreen for mass surveillance, censorship, and purging abortion info, LGBT content, and anything else online that the current government doesn't like (including anything covering the Epsten f

Vote NO to Steve Pearce!

Hold our DOJ and leaders accountable!

Vote YES on the Massey-Khanna War Powers Resolution

I’m really upset that the War Powers resolution failed in the Senate. The lawmakers who opposed it have abdicated their responsibility to their constituents, our servicemembers, and the Constitution. If Trump can start a war any time he wants with no authorization then we have a monarchy, not a demo

From a constituent in Elmhurst, IL

The Iran war is terrible and destabilizing. All headlines about DHS, CBP, ICE and Epstein have been pushed aside for the war, but it's ALL important. It ALL has to be tackled. Keep pounding on Trump admin's lawlessness and chaos and lack of governance. Keep it in the news. ENGAGE THE MEDIA AT EVERY

Congress must reaffirm that the United States military answers to them!

I am very angry that Trump has gotten us into yet another endless Middle East War. There was no imminent threat as required by our Constitution.

Demand Answers

I may not agree with politics of Thom Tillis. But I applaud his questioning of Kristi Noem and his demand for answers. He will halt further business until he receives answers. He was clear in his demands and the consequences of inaction. This is what I expect of my elected officials!!!
