    Rhetoric like this, which has become commonplace for this President, is even more appalling on the heels of Jamal Khashoggi's murder. Violence is never acceptable, and applauding an assault on a reporter is beyond wrong and detrimental to our democracy.

    This is unacceptable and heart breaking. It's why I’ve pressed Gov. Rauner and major health insurers to ramp up their efforts to reduce racial disparities in maternal and infant health outcomes.

    Proud to be included in ’s 50 most influential people in healthcare list. I’ll keep working for policies that support working mothers because helping them isn’t just a women’s issue or a health issue, it’s an economic issue too.

    A good question for AG Sessions when he visits Chicago tomorrow to talk about crime: why is he still withholding federal Byrne JAG grant funding from the City? These are formula-based violence prevention funds, not a bargaining chip for the AG to use for ideological purposes.

    Nearly 5M Illinoisans– 40% of people in our state – receive Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, or tax credits from ACA to help buy health insurance. And yet, congressional Republicans & Pres. Trump have made no secret of the fact that they want to cut these essential programs.

    The last column from Jamal Khashoggi sends a powerful message to the Arab world. Mr. Khashoggi died for his cause, and the United States can’t forget its values & cower to Saudi Arabia as they and others suppress free speech by the most atrocious of means.

    . & I have sent letters to President Trump & the Trump Organization asking for full disclosure of any Saudi business ties. The American people deserve to know the extent of Trump family financial ties & whether it constitutes a conflict of interest in Saudi Arabia.

    In 2016, there were 72 pregnancy-associated maternal deaths in Illinois & 985 infant deaths. Today, women of color are three to four times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women. This is unacceptable.

    Republican control of the Senate next Congress means one thing: more health care uncertainty and sabotage. Majority Leader McConnell made that clear today advocating for another try at an ACA repeal and potential cuts to Medicare and Medicaid:

    This week I spoke to about the Trump Administration’s heartless approach to immigration policy and immigrant communities across America. Zero-tolerance is a sad chapter in American history.

    From : “A simple analysis of what Treasury reported shows that virtually the entire deficit increase was because the tax cut enacted in December reduced revenues substantially.” We won’t let Republicans pull the wool over our eyes.

    Pres. Trump can’t give the Saudis a cowardly pass for this barbaric act to suppress a dissident — just as he has with Putin. They have undermined their status as a trusted ally — our only response should be to adhere to US values and show there is a price to pay for such conduct.

    President Trump and Secretary Pompeo are giving a shameful pass to Saudia Arabia’s denials of direct involvement in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. This Administration has bent the knee to yet another autocrat.

    In Opinion The Editorial Board writes: "If Saudi Arabia is allowed to get away with some lame story about the apparent murder of Jamal Khashoggi, the world's growing gang of autocrats will feel even less constraint"
