We need to have an honest conversation about the Callais decision, the state of voting rights, and where we go from here. One thing I know for sure — I'm done with this court. Their corruption. The lifetime appointments that protect them. Their abuse of power has to end.

Something special is happening in Florida!

@angieforfl.bsky.social is running a WINNABLE race for Senate against an unelected, scamming MAGA extremist.

Her opponent will work for Trump — Angie will work for FLORIDA!

@caitfornewyork.bsky.social has stared down enemies abroad to protect Americans’ freedoms.
NY-17 does not need another rubber stamp for Trump’s corruption; they need a champion like Cait.

Rep. Lauren Underwood and I were honored to be given a tour of the Rehabilitation Hospital of Northern Arizona to visit all the amazing doctors and caretakers. Rural healthcare is so important, and we’ll always keep fighting to fund crucial medical centers. #warriorup

Early voting is open in Illinois! Vote, like your health care depends on it. Vote, like your Social Security depends on it. Vote, like your grocery bill depends on it. Make your plan today!

After more than 200 years, the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation is coming home! I am proud to have worked with Chairman Rupnick to secure $1M to build a Tribal Government headquarters here, on Illinois soil. Honored to have played a small role in this long-overdue homecoming.

After voting to take $1 TRILLION out of Medicaid and $500 BILLION out of Medicare, Republicans are starting to realize that their blind loyalty to Trump is going to cost them in November.

@laurenunderwood.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 7:38 PM

Folks, we MUST protect Social Security. You worked hard and deserve access to your benefits. My opponent called Social Security "a Ponzi scheme that needs to be repealed & replaced,” but I will not let them take what you have earned.

Donald Trump: increased his wealth by over $2B since 2024 Us: Paying over $100 more a month for gas, losing SNAP benefits, and scraping by to cover health care premiums that have doubled or tripled. He's cashing in, and we're paying his tab.

I was so happy to secure $1.3M to help the City of Lockport to upgrade its stormwater system! We’re working to deliver fewer service interruptions, better water quality, and enough water pressure for firefighters when it counts.

From Team Underwood to our favorite Congresswoman, Happy Birthday!! 🥳💐🎂💛

11/1: Open enrollment starts, and after the Big Ugly Bill, proposed rates are up 30% on average. 11/3: Election Day In under a month, we can show Republicans that enough is enough: make the ACA tax credits permanent and health care more affordable.

I had so much fun at the Mexican Independence Day Parade in Joliet! This year felt a little extra special. Something's in the air — people are FIRED up to vote on Nov 3rd. Register and make a plan to vote today.

Republicans have total control in Washington, and this is what they have delivered: - 400,000 Illinoisans projected to lose Medicaid. - 1 blank check for war with Iran. - 0 taxes for billionaires. On November 3rd, Democrats will deliver for you.

Evan as Trump’s Tarrifs squeeze farmers all over Illinois, their resilience remains strong. I visited Sandwich earlier this month to speak with some of our fair farmers and meet some cute new friends 🐮

Everyone deserves clean water. With Illinois having the largest concentration of lead pipes in the U.S., I knew I needed to act. That’s why I have dedicated my time in Congress to bring $100+ MILLION to modernize the water systems in every community across our district.

HUGE thank you to @laurenunderwood.bsky.social and our amazing canvassers for showing up strong in Clearwater!

We have just 34 days left to win this - and we're going to do it.

@laurenunderwood.bsky.socialSep 29, 2026, 11:48 PM

Democrats are the party of action, accountability, and affordability. Republicans are the party of tax breaks for billionaires, raising your health care costs, and following every whim of Donald Trump.

@laurenunderwood.bsky.socialSep 28, 2026, 11:15 PM

This Congress, I am proud to say that I have passed four bills through the House. Not because I compromise my values, not because the legislation is a “gimme,” But because I show up every day and work hard for our community.

@laurenunderwood.bsky.socialSep 27, 2026, 10:17 PM

In case you missed it, @electdemocrats.bsky.social announced another round of Red to Blue candidates!

These candidates are fighting for their districts and we know they'll deliver BIG DEMOCRATIC VICTORIES this November.
