Concerned citizens of #IL14 fighting the Trump agenda, focused on IL14 and Rep. Underwood. (RTs are not endorsements or association w/ any particular project.)
Ever since @LaurenUnderwood was elected and sworn in, she's been regularly holding town halls and open office hours in #IL14 just as promised! @RepUnderwood has also been hard at work in Washington DC. Follow this thread for her month by month legislative accomplishments!
The House just voted on final passage of the American Rescue Plan.
Over the coming days, we’ll highlight the incredible benefits for our communities -- but right now, I am proud to tell you that help is on its way.
Now more than ever, strengthening workforce development opportunities is critical to rebuilding our economy and getting our neighbors back to work. That’s why one of the first bills we considered in the new Congress was the National Apprenticeship Act.
Congresswoman @LaurenUnderwood is a registered nurse & health care policy expert who co-founded the Black Maternal Health Caucus in her 1st term to end outcome disparities.
She helped strengthen the ACA & is fighting for better health care for #IL14 & America. #BlackHistoryMonth
I'm proud to join @SenWarren to introduce the Maternal Health Pandemic Response Act in the #Momnibus. Pregnant people face heightened risks from #COVID19. This legislation makes key investments to protect maternal health & advance respectful maternity care during the pandemic.
Too many children are growing up without their mothers.
Today, my colleagues @AlmaforCongress, @CoryBooker, and I introduced the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act of 2021 to save moms' lives.

While the last year has been challenging, this pandemic has only increased my resolve to be accessible, accountable, & transparent to the people of #IL14. Read my latest piece on my priorities to help Illinois communities & strengthen our economy.

In the 116th Congress, I came ready to represent your voices and deliver results. And we were very successful—I'm extremely proud of what we accomplished together. Follow along this week to see some of these outstanding accomplishments from my first term in Congress!
Today, millions of Americans are facing the difficult reality of losing their unemployment insurance because the President refuses to sign the bipartisan COVID-19 relief bill passed by both chambers of Congress and negotiated by his own Administration.
I'm pleased to see my Veterans in STEM Act included in this historic bipartisan legislative package that will help support veterans and ensure they receive the best possible care and benefits. I urge President Trump to immediately sign this bill into law.
A fair appeals process at the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights (OCR) is critical to protecting the civil rights of students, workers, and their families, but under Secretary DeVos, the civil rights of students have been hurt.
Tomorrow at 12:00 p.m. CT, I’m hosting a Facebook Live Town Hall to provide an update on the latest coronavirus relief and federal funding bills. Stay tuned for more details!
Proud to be supporting @LaurenUnderwood, IL-14 on her science advisory council. She is working so hard for our community and our country. Thank you, Congresswoman Underwood.
@thehill’s 12/9 “From Platform to Policy: 2021 Healthcare Agenda” is available on video. @HIVHep’s Carl Schmid joined @SenBillCassidy, @LaurenUnderwood, & health officials to discuss the future of healthcare under a new administration & Congress: https://t.co/pJZCsTmLlo
My Rep is an ABSOLUTE BOSS!
@LaurenUnderwood let’s her work speak for her and if you happen to catch her on camera, it’s not because she was seeking it out!
You will find her, among the people, her constituents!
The OTHERS could learn a LOT from her!
