Happy #PresidentsDay! Grateful to have served over the years alongside presidents who put the PEOPLE first — from @BillClinton to @BarackObama to our current @POTUS. https://t.co/aLoGFhE0qh
In 1993, Carol Moseley-Braun became the first Black woman to serve in the U.S. Senate & the first female senator from Illinois. She was a tireless advocate for civil rights issues and education and was later appointed by President Clinton to be Ambassador to New Zealand. #IL01BHM https://t.co/5rjfNYZK5m
Oscar Stanton De Priest was the first Black American elected to Congress in the 20th century and the first Black Member of Congress from the North. His election marked a new era of Black political organization in urban areas. #IL01BHM #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/F6ShVGD7mF
A big and heartfelt congratulations to @KendallCoyne and @Abbey18Murphy, two superstar hockey players from #IL01 who helped bring home the silver medal for @TeamUSA in Women’s Hockey at the 2022 #WinterOlympics! You make us proud!✨ https://t.co/rrZ6KyVH5p
Harold Washington represented IL-01 before becoming the first Black Mayor of Chicago in 1983. His election rocked Chicago's political establishment and galvanized a civic awakening that inspired Black Americans across the country to run for office. #IL01BHM https://t.co/arGO4iYaHl
There is a tremendous legacy of Black leadership, Black culture, and Black history that comes from Illinois’s 1st District — a legacy I am humbled and honored to be part of. This #BlackHistoryMonth, I’ll be highlighting a few of the individuals who helped create it. #IL01BHM

Black history is American history. This month, we reflect on the progress we have made — and the battles we have yet to win — in the continued struggle against systemic racism and our fight for freedom, justice, and equality for all people. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/ubdPvIxdFl
Roses are red Violets are blue Improving #SocialSecurity Is long overdue!
The @FTC has found "scant evidence" in favor of the repair restrictions imposed by auto manufacturers — restrictions that benefit car companies and licensed dealerships at the expense of vehicle owners and mom-and-pop repair shops. It's time to change that.https://t.co/c99iIegVId
NEWS: Today, I introduced the federal #RightToRepair legislation for the auto sector. Independent auto shops are often cheaper and more accessible than licensed dealerships, and the growing lack of meaningful consumer choice in the repair market hurts low-income Americans most.
The lack of diversity among @NFL coaches is not a coincidence — it is bold-faced racism. Brian Flores is risking his career to take on the NFL, and his allegations deserve to be taken seriously. It's time to hold a hearing about systemic racism in the NFL.

Stay safe out there, Chicago. ❄️ Avoid travel, listen to local updates on road conditions and closures, and check on on your neighbors and friends nearby who may need assistance. ❄️ @FEMA has more tips on staying safe in winter weather at https://t.co/69HXv4rvNz
Tax season is here, and @YourVoiceAtIRS has a number of resources — like this Tax Prep Checklist —that can help you get ready to file. https://t.co/QOc2axvOUq
Your Friday remember that every single Republican voted against the #ChildTaxCredit, which slashed child hunger and helped 61 million American kids. Don't listen to what they say, look at what they do: Republicans are the party of child poverty.
If we held a moment of silence for every victim of the Holocaust, we would be silent for 11.5 years. On #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay, we honor the 6 million Jews and millions of other souls lost to the Holocaust and recommit ourselves to fighting rising Antisemitism.
Not only was @LeaderMcConnell’s recent comment about Black voters RACIST, it was also FALSE. QT @GlennKesslerWP: New #FactChecker --> McConnell’s flub on Black voters misstated the facts, too https://t.co/MGcHyDIzGR)
