The President spent months demanding that a Black, Muslim, immigrant Congresswoman be investigated, and now federal agents are at her door. That isn't justice running its course, it's a warning shot to everyone who refuses to stay quiet. I stand with @Ilhan!

Today we celebrate the first peoples of this land and the Native families across Chicagoland whose history, culture, and strength continue to shape who we are. Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day! #IndigenousPeoplesDay https://t.co/9OYz5OTbKM

Congratulations to Hon. Navi Pillay on winning the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize! Your tireless efforts to promote peace, advance justice, uphold international law, and defend human rights are an inspiration to the world. May your remarkable legacy continue to guide our collective pursuit of a more just and peaceful world. #NobelPeacePrize #Justice #Peace

Mike Ditka was Chicago through and through, a Hall of Fame player and the coach who brought this city its only Super Bowl title, and he did it with a toughness every Bears fan saw in themselves. My deepest sympathy goes to his family and to everyone bleeding navy and orange today. #MikeDitka #ChicagoPride

What Hasan did at Fort Hood was evil and nothing excuses it, but a government that streams executions for public consumption is borrowing from the playbook of regimes like Iran. America should show the world what the rule of law looks like, not put death on a livestream.

Happy heavenly 85th birthday to my father, Reverend Jesse L. Jackson. From a segregated library in Greenville to the national stage, my father spent his life insisting that everybody is somebody, and that belief still guides the work I do for the First District every single day. This is our first birthday without him, and we carry his fight forward with love. #ReverendJackson #JesseJackson #iamsomebody

A new USDA rule taking effect November 4 could cost roughly 5,000 grocers in underserved areas their SNAP authorization, and retailers still haven't received the guidance to comply. Because of that, my colleagues and I are URGING USDA to delay it before families lose their nearest store. Closing the only store in the neighborhood isn't improving food access, it's ending it!

Democracy only works when people can raise their voices in the streets, and at the ballot box, without fear of reprisal. The people of Pakistan deserve free and fair elections, and I'm proud to stand with them!

Applications are now open for spring 2027 internships in my Chicago and Washington, DC offices, and I want young people from the South Side, the south suburbs, and all across Illinois to know there’s a seat at this table for you!

Chatham is a gem, a proud and hardworking neighborhood built by public servants, working families, and people who sacrificed to make a home here. My heart is with Edimari’s family, and I joined @OmarJimenez with @CNN to make sure the country understands what this community will need in the months ahead. Healing takes counselors, clinics, and crisis care, and H.R.1’s Medicaid cuts put that care at risk for up to 500,000 Illinoisans right when families like these need it most. That is not the future Chatham deserves, and I will keep fighting in Washington until every family here can get the care they need.
