Illinois joins more than 20 states in lawsuit challenging Trump's new global tariffs Trump is overstepping his power with planned 15% tariffs on much of the world, Democratic attorneys general argue.

The Supreme Court ruled that Trump’s tariffs are illegal.

What did he do the next day? Impose more tariffs.

Illinois Democrats are fighting to protect our farmers and families while the ILGOP stays silent. ⬇️

Your costs are skyrocketing, jobs are cratering and Trump is starting the wars he promised he'd stop.

It's like he is trying to break all his promises.

President Trump fired Kristi Noem because he knew Congress was going to remove her.

My impeachment efforts against Noem gained momentum every time she opened her mouth and terrorized our country.

It’s time for her to go home and never enter public service—or adopt a dog—again.

Illinois Democrats protested, exposed her for her crimes, and made sure she felt the pressure in Congress every step of the way.

But it’s far from over. The Trump Administration still needs to answer for the damage they caused and the lives lost.

We’re not backing down.

Noem out, Trump picks Mullin as DHS secretary The South Dakota Republican was the public face of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown

Good riddance!

We still have to impeach her, Melt ICE, and dismantle DHS.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem out, Trump says She will be replaced by Sen. Markwayne Mullin, Trump said Thursday.

Kristi Noem's failed leadership of a department that violated civil rights & murdered Americans is a fireable offense. But a DOJ & president who truly cared about the rule of law and the Constitution would not stop at mere termination. She must be held accountable.

Senate Republicans just blocked the war powers resolution that would have prevented President Trump from ordering further strikes on Iran unless authorized by Congress.

The Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to declare war. It’s long overdue that Congress step up to its responsibilities.

Governor JB Pritzker pressed the U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Assistant Secretary for Consular Affairs Mora Namdar to take immediate federal action to protect Americans stranded in the Middle East following recent U.S. military strikes and responses.

Americans are stranded abroad — we all have a responsibility to do everything in our power to safely get them home.

The federal government must immediately provide clear evacuation guidance and plans to leave the region.

I’m calling on the State Department to take action now.

Save the date, Illinois! 💙 Only 2 weeks left until the Illinois Primary Election.

Early voting is underway across the state—do you have a plan to vote?

Secretary Noem won’t admit she was wrong.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and so many other victims of her agents’ use of excessive force are NOT “domestic terrorists.”

They’re human beings who were exercising their constitutional rights.

Trump’s war on Iran has stranded General Manner and thousands of other Americans trying to flee the Middle East. Unfortunately, DOGE left a bare-bones State Department that is now unable to support our embassies—and Americans abroad.

"That's the way it is," says the five-time draft dodger to our military families who fear their loved one in uniform could be next.

What a disgrace.

March is Women’s History Month!

From Betty Friedan and Ida B. Wells to First Lady Michelle Obama, women in Illinois have always been the force behind progress.

Illinois Democrats honor them and will continue to build a state that uplifts, protects, and empowers women.

Donald Trump cannot stop breaking his promises.

By illegally striking Iran, Trump made a choice—one he did not have to make—that puts American lives and national security at risk while threatening to draw us into yet another expensive, tax-payer funded forever war without Congressional approval.

Here’s Who the Illinois Congressional Delegation is Bringing to the State of the Union, as Some Choose to Skip Trump’s Speech Several Democratic members of the Illinois congressional delegation have announced they would not attend the speech, citing their disapproval of the president.

Illinois Democrats tonight uplifted the people carrying the weight of this moment: families facing rising health care costs, workers impacted by tariffs, advocates fighting SNAP cuts, and immigrants navigating fear and uncertainty.

That is who we fight for every day.

Worst president in American history.

For all those who didn't watch tonight, allow me to summarize:

The liar lied again.

70% of Americans are struggling with costs that Trump promised to fix.

Tonight, he told them everything is great. That's not a State of the Union. That's a slap in the face.
