Why do white people think is ok to say the N word?
There is no situation time or place that it’s ok to say it.
We really shouldn’t need to have to have these conversations.
I can't wrap up #WomensHistoryMonth without appreciating a person who knows every chapter of my own history—and stood by my side as we made history in #IL14. Love you Mom! And let's continue to celebrate the accomplishments and gifts of women every day, month, and year.
ICYMI: When I campaigned in #IL14, a resident of Oswego, IL told me she had to decide between heat and health care this winter. Unacceptable. I explained H.R. 1868, my new bill to make health coverage more affordable, to @Maddow on @MSNBC this week.
Today is the final day of #BlackHistoryMonth, but the fight for equality continues every day because of legends like John Lewis. It was a privilege to sit down with him and learn from his experiences.

Happy to be an original sponsor of the #GreenNewDeal along with @AOC. We must set ambitious goals to tackle climate change and grow the American economy.
The Supreme Court made the right decision to stay a Louisiana law that would cripple women’s reproductive freedom.
This law is just one of many attempts by states to undermine those freedoms.
It is vital for the Court to protect the constitutional rights of all Americans.
I’m holding office hours to hear from you! If you live in #IL14, stop by Marengo City Hall on Saturday from 3-4:30. No appointment needed, I’ll meet with anyone who wants to chat on a first-come, first-served basis. Many more to come, in all corners of our #IL14 community!
Nonpartisan @USCBO says the GOP shutdown cost us $3 billion in economic activity that can’t be recovered. THREE BILLION DOLLARS over partisan politics.
Let’s hope this report marks the end of senseless shutdowns & hurting American workers & families as a negotiating tactic.
I am so proud of the air traffic controllers, flight attendants, & workers who, through their organizing, should be credited for their role in ending the shutdown.
Dems only have the House (for now), so we must rely on the bravery + organizing of everyday people to push change.
