Menopause continues to face stigmas that leads to lack of research and proper support for millions of women nationwide. That’s why I am proud to have cosponsored @repyvetteclarke’s resolution to recognize October as World Menopause Awareness Month. We need to make this gap a policy priority.

Illinois is a manufacturing powerhouse, and the 2nd District is part of that. I spent time with three local manufacturers yesterday in my district and met the people behind the machines. Manufacturing is essential to our economy, and I am proud to stand with them.

163 days of promising to bring prices down and failing to deliver. We have now reached the most days in a year with gas prices above $4 a gallon in U.S. history. Trump’s Iran War continues to make life more expensive for Americans.

Last Tuesday, I met with the new Consul General of India in Chicago, Dr. M. Anand Prakash. With 20 years in foreign service, Dr. Prakash will no doubt help strengthen the ties between India and the Midwest. Welcome to Chicago! I hope you packed a jacket!

Statement from Congresswoman Robin Kelly about suspicious letter received at her district office:

Bigotry is not welcomed in this country. My thoughts are with everyone present at the Hindu temple in Aurora. I am grateful no one was harmed.

The @DemWomenCaucus and I are deeply disgusted by DHS and ICE’s failure to provide care for and account for miscarriages and pregnancy-related medical outcomes in detention centers. @RepPettersen, @RepBeatty, and I led a letter condemning their actions. They must be held accountable.

I stand with @Ilhan.
