The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

We knew this would happen.
Americans pay too much for healthcare as it is. Now it's about to get even worse.
Republicans want to gut the lifeline that 45 million Americans depend on. My colleagues in Congress can't let the ACA credits expire.
REALITY CHECK:

"Some 24 million people on Affordable Care Act insurance face health care premiums soaring an average of 114%. Millions more are expected to lose Medicaid when the cuts in Trump’s 'big beautiful bill' kick in just after the midterm elections."

This deal fails working families.

Congress chose to reopen the government without fixing the healthcare crisis staring us in the face. Marketplace premiums in IL doubled and 45K Illinoisans stand to lose coverage if subsidies lapse. We can’t call it progress if people can’t afford to see a doctor.
Enough Senate Democrats vote with Republicans to break government shutdown impasse
The Senate passed a key test vote Sunday night on a plan that would reopen the government.

Follow for updates on what is happening at the Ice Processing facility located at 1930 Beach Street in Broadview.
Good evening from outside the ICE processing facility in Broadview, IL. The scene at the moment m calm but very tense. Federal agents and several dozen protestors separated by the large fence that was erected - Broadview officials say illegally - earlier this week.

Happening now: at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago, Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino and other CBP/ICE agents emerge to patrol Beach Street and escort a vehicle out.

They ordered people out of the street, walked to the end of it and then back to the fence.

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

As a constituent, I want to thank you for taking this stance. I can only hope @durbin.senate.gov will do the same.
I refuse to vote for Republicans’ slush fund bill that grants Trump and Elon Musk permission to continue rigging our government and our economy against the middle class.

It would greenlight even more chaos and more cuts to critical programs.

Hell no, I cannot support that.
