The Supreme Court’s latest decision is a step backward for voting rights and fair representation. Every American deserves an equal voice at the ballot box. I stand with civil rights leaders calling for action to protect voters and uphold our democracy. Read: https://t.co/baq6K0Kctr
Today, I proudly celebrate the 50th anniversary of Prison Fellowship, Second Chance Month, and the introduction of the Second Chance Month Resolution. Second chances help individuals rebuild their lives, strengthen families, and make communities safer. https://t.co/DEoFDPQRqk
January isn't just a new year; it’s a time to prioritize our well-being. This month, I’m highlighting: Cervical Health & Glaucoma screenings, Birth Defects prevention & education, Stalking awareness & survivor support the urgent need for blood donors. https://t.co/DPvWRQrRsC
Rep. Danny K. Davis joined Illinois’ Democratic congressional delegation in demanding the Trump Administration immediately comply with federal law and release $1 BILLION in frozen funding for child care and essential services. https://t.co/MYn2lHSKln
Today, we honor Dr. King not with words, but with service. As we face renewed attacks on our democracy, we remember that progress is never inevitable. Let’s organize and recommit to the "Beloved Community" he envisioned. https://t.co/vLb3Il0dbq
This week, I fought to hold HHS accountable for illegally halting $10 b for child care & services in IL, MN, CA, CO, & NY and child care funds across the US. The GOP rejected my effort to penalize HHS’s illegal actions. Thank you AG Raoul for suing to stop the cruel GOP efforts. https://t.co/uG32JwsSh7
Thousands of children and families are being harmed out of political revenge. It’s unpresidential and un-American, yet HHS has illegally stopped $1 b of our funds. HHS must immediately release the $1 b in child care and social services funding that our state is rightfully owed. https://t.co/0b7fUVNqrv
ACA Extension: Today’s victory proves a simple truth: when Democrats stay unified, listen to the people, & remain focused on results, we win. A people united will never be defeated. Democrats are on a roll! We are fighting for ordinary, everyday Americans. https://t.co/N1GNsNnmKe
Congressman Danny Davis: I have no respect for authoritarian rule, anywhere. President Trump does not get to decide war, choose foreign leaders, or bypass Congress. That’s not democracy. That’s executive overreach. https://t.co/v3LEwijbnN
January is #NationalMentoringMonth. I’ve always said that our youth are the best of who we are. To everyone in the 7th District who takes the time to guide, teach, and inspire a young person: Thank you. You are building the future of Chicago. #MentorshipMatters #BeAMentor #IL07 https://t.co/FP5gYzN4La
