I demanded access to the Broadview ICE facility to conduct oversight — as is my right as a Member of Congress. I was denied. No accountability. No transparency. THIS is the Trump Administration.

If the Postal Service moves forward with President Trump's plan to restrict mail ballot delivery, I'll pursue a congressional subpoena of the Postmaster General and lead efforts to remove him from office. No administration should be able to use the Postal Service to make it harder for Americans to vote.

My parents brought me to this country as an infant in search of a better life. That’s what America is all about. Rep. Nancy Mace’s proposed constitutional amendment to bar naturalized citizens from serving in Congress, on the federal bench, and in Senate-confirmed positions is morally wrong. We must stand shoulder-to-shoulder against the bigotry and hate behind it.

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

“Go back to India.” “You will not replace us.” Those were the chants of white supremacists outside a Texas city hall just weeks ago. Whether directed at Hindus, Muslims, Jews, or any other community, hate has no place in America. We must stand shoulder-to-shoulder against bigotry, prejudice, and discrimination wherever it appears.

In my district, 18-year-old Evelyn, a U.S. citizen, was thrown to the ground by ICE agents for filming them, and one pressed a knee on her neck. DHS later denied it was ICE despite clear proof. Silencing citizens betrays the trust these agencies are meant to protect.

60 people in one cell. Detainees forced to sleep standing up. These aren’t just illegal actions happening within the Broadview ICE facility; they’re inhumane and immoral. It’s time ICE and Trump allow Members of Congress to enter and inspect these facilities.

At least seven people have been charged in connection with vandalism of President Trump's vanity projects, but when extensive records implicate powerful people in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking operation, this DOJ looks away. That contrast says everything about the Trump Administraton's priorities.

Ghislaine Maxwell must never receive a pardon or clemency. Today, at a hearing with Epstein survivors, I made clear that Maxwell has shown no remorse and taken no accountability for her role in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse network.

After months of being denied entry, I got into the Broadview ICE facility earlier today to conduct congressional oversight. A court reaffirmed Congress's authority, and I'll keep using every tool available to hold the Trump administration accountable.

The Trump Administration is floating scenarios that could put armed ICE agents at polling places. Federal law prohibits armed federal personnel from being deployed where elections are being held. We cannot allow security concerns to become a pretext for election interference.

The Treasury Department is still withholding Epstein-related Suspicious Activity Reports tied to $1.5 billion in wire transfers. These records must be released immediately.

The average price of gas has gone up 50 cents across the country since Trump’s unauthorized war with Iran began. This war must end before it inflicts more economic damage and more Americans lose their lives.

Outrageous and unacceptable—Donald Trump attacking India and Indian Americans with rhetoric that fuels prejudice and hate. We should be bringing people together—not tearing communities down. Enough is enough.

President Trump’s plan to revoke Chinese student visas is a gift to the CCP because it keeps top talent in China and fuels their economy. The losers? America and the students who lose the chance to contribute here and pursue the American Dream.

Days after a horrific attack at a San Diego mosque, some politicians are still openly trafficking in anti-Muslim hate. When a Member of Congress says “we need more Islamophobia,” we should call it what it is: dangerous bigotry.

Todd Blanche's mishandling of the Epstein files and support for the January 6 slush fund should disqualify him from serving as Attorney General. He also needs to answer questions about the special treatment Ghislaine Maxwell received after meeting with him.

President Trump's plan to restrict voting by mail could make it harder for military servicemembers to have their votes counted. The people defending our democracy shouldn't have to fight the White House to participate in it.

Donald Trump loves to take shots at Illinois. But the facts tell a different story: A $1.1 trillion economy, the second-largest manufacturing state, and Chicago leading the nation in corporate relocations. Illinois isn’t the problem — it’s the heart and soul of America.

Leon Black paid Jeffrey Epstein roughly $170 million after Epstein was a convicted sex offender. The American people deserve answers about why those payments were made, what they were really for, and who else may have been involved. That's exactly what our investigation is seeking to uncover.
