I symbolize everything Donald Trump is trying to erase. Asked about serving in Congress during the last two years of this admin at a @chicagodsa.bsky.social forum, I said I’d bring my agency and lived experiences to the fight. We have no other choice, and I’m the person to deliver that message. 🌹

Did you know that Illinois has an extremist pro-Israel law on the books? In 2015 Republican Governor Bruce Rauner signed a bill that would make it illegal for Springfield to invest pension funds in any company that refuses to do business in Israel for any reason, even for humanitarian ones.

Today @sanders.senate.gov is introducing resolution to block arms transfers to Israel. Senate Joint Resolution 34 and 41 would prevent the sale of guns, bombs, and support systems that have let the Israeli government dispossess, disenfranchise, and kill Palestinians in the West Bank and in Gaza.
The time is long overdue for Congress to stop funding Israel’s illegal and horrific war against the Palestinian people.
The U.S. must not support a government which is starving children.
Tomorrow, I will force votes in the Senate to block the sale of weapons to Netanyahu.

Opponents were outnumbered 2-1 during Plan Commission but are trying to intimidate their way to blocking housing for our neighbors.
