Today, we're back in Springfield, kicking off the start of the Spring 2026 legislative session, and my focus is clear: affordability and real relief for working families. (1/3)

I passed the Junk Fee Ban Act out of the Illinois House. At a time when families are being squeezed from every direction, hidden fees are making it harder to afford everyday purchases. This bill is simple: the price you see should be the price you pay. (1/2)

We took an important step toward tackling Illinois’ pension debt. In partnership with Senator Martwick, we passed legislation to extend the bipartisan, voluntary COLA Buyout Program for an additional 2 years - building on a solution that’s already reduced our pension (1/3)

Tariffs don’t make the US tough: they’re expensive and hurt my constituents. #illinois #trump #stateoftheunion #pritzker #tariffs (1/4)

🚨 The Supreme Court just made it easier to supress your vote, and nobody is talking about it.  In February 2026, the Supreme Court ruled that the USPS can't be sued, even when it intentionally refuses to deliver your mail. (1/7) #illinois #pritzker #earlyvoting #election #vote

With less than a week to finalize Illinois’ state budget, one of my top priorities in Springfield is continuing funding for our Nonprofit Security Grant Program. At a time when hate crimes and targeted violence are on the rise, no one should feel unsafe because of who they are or how they worship.

Today is a BIG day for Illinois! I joined @GovPritzker as he signed the Clean & Reliable Grid Affordability Act (CRGA) into law, a historic win for working families, our clean energy future, and a stronger, more reliable grid. (1/5)

My bill, HB 862, has passed the House - a major step forward for disability rights in Illinois. This legislation creates the Illinois Department of Disability Advocacy and Guardianship, elevating the current commission to a Cabinet-level agency to strengthen accountability and transparency. (1/2)

Illinois will not flinch, nor will we falter, when confronted with attacks on our healthcare system by figures like RFK Jr. Today, alongside @GovPritzker, my bill HB767 was signed into law: a first-in-the-nation measure establishing a state-based vaccine-recommending body.

Reforming our transit system is deeply personal to me, so I’m grateful to Governor JB Pritzker, and my colleagues in the General Assembly for helping get this across the finish line. Illinois is on the right path to build a world-class transportation system.

Further to my ‘Stack nobody read about the perils of UFO disclosure. One of my preoccupations is that the awe and fear provoked by any such disclosure will push one of these hokey proto-religions to the fore. Enjoy..

I led the House in a moment of silence honoring the life and service of Colleen Hanabusa, a proud daughter of Waiʻanae, a tita at heart, and a former member of this House.

The killings of Renee Good & Alex Pretti are devastating tragedies and absolutely indefensible. We cannot let this spiral into more bloodshed. We need fair, thorough, unbiased investigations with local & state law enforcement fully involved. The truth must come out & people must be held accountable.

We learned that Premier Ford has ordered civil servants to halt all existing and new Freedom of Information requests across all government ministries. Transparency and accountability are vital aspects of democracy, and if the Premier can’t accept this, then he should go back to his sticker company.

Anthony Edwards on building championship habits "We just gotta listen to the coaches. We had a hard time of processing stuff and going out there and doing it. We try to do stuff on our own. — You're supposed to build championship habits or playoff habits in the regular season."
