NEWS: Yesterday, the Senate passed two pilot mental health bills I introduced in the House. Together, they would make it easier for pilots and air traffic controllers to seek mental health care. Since the legislation was amended by the Senate, we'll need to pass both bills in the House before they can become law. But we're one step closer to meaningful change. Read why these issues are important: chicagotribune.com/2025/09/17/opi…
A constituent in Glen Ellyn was receiving reduced Social Security disability benefits because the Social Security Administration (SSA) had not updated its records to reflect the closure of their Workers’ Compensation case.

This National Literacy Month, I’m grateful to the libraries in IL-06 that help foster a love of reading. From Wheaton to Prairie Trails, each of these institutions plays a critical part in expanding access to books, supporting lifelong learning, and strengthening our communities.
I had the pleasure of honoring my latest Constituent Spotlight, Cindy Crosby, for her decades of volunteer service at The Morton Arboretum. As a dragonfly monitoring group leader, prairie restoration volunteer, educator, and author of more than 20 books, she inspires people to protect and appreciate our local biodiversity. Thank you, Cindy, for your decades of service and dedication to cultivating the next generation of environmental stewards!
