Letter to the Hon. Donald J. Trump, President of the United States - Illinois Congressional Delegation Urges President Trump To Support State's Request For Federal Assistance From Flood Damage
Rep. Lauren Underwood, ...
Aug. 29, 2019
Tweet - "This is a start, but if @US_FDA was doing their job in the first place, it wouldn't be necessary. Vaping companies like JUUL are blatantly targeting our nation's children with their dangerous and addictive products. It has to stop."
Sen. Dick Durbin

Letter to the Hon. Neil Chatterjee, Chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission - Senate Democrats urge Republican-controlled Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to oppose proposal that could raise electricity prices for millions of Americans, jeopardize thousands of jobs, and dramatically increase carbon emissions

Tweet - "Deporting children with cancer is about as low as you can sink. This is yet another step in the Trump Administration's heartless campaign to use immigration to divide us. But I have faith in the American people - we are a kind and generous nation and we will reject this cruelty."
