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.

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.

.Rep. Jonathan L. Jackson and I were just denied entry to the South Loop ICE facility in Chicago. We went to ask questions and perform congressional oversight of potential illegal ICE activities as Donald Trump's administration targets immigrant communities. More to come.

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.

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.

Corruption and insider trading are at the heart of Trump’s chaotic Iran war decisions. People around the Trump administration are playing in prediction markets and trading stocks—profiting off flipping war and peace—and it has to stop. I’m investigating. This illegal war must end.

Ghislaine Maxwell—Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator and a convicted sex trafficker—must not be pardoned. She hasn’t told the truth, hasn’t shown remorse, and survivors are still waiting for accountability. Donald Trump must take a pardon off the table—now.

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.

As I said on MSNBC, it wasn’t a weak case against Epstein - it was a weak prosecutor. Acosta ignored victims’ statements and mountains of evidence. We need the full Epstein files and financial records to expose who benefited from this trafficking and cover-up.

President Trump is manufacturing a crisis in Chicago to distract from his failure to tackle rising prices and his attempts to bury the Epstein files. Sending troops into our city—as he did in D.C. & L.A.—is illegal and unconstitutional. We’ll fight it in court.

I’m introducing the NOVA Act to block any taxpayer-funded occupation of Venezuela and stop U.S. tax dollars from subsidizing oil companies there. Congress has not authorized “running” Venezuela, and American families shouldn’t be forced to pay for it.
