10th News: A Challenging Month of May
Dear friend,
I’m writing to you from Washington with a quick dispatch on a couple of important updates.
REPUBLICAN PLANS FOR MEDICAID WILL RESULT IN MILLIONS LOSING HEALTH COVERAGE
Only 100 Days In
As I write this newsletter, global markets are roiling from the chaos caused by President Trump’s idiotic and capricious tariff policies.
Last week I was home in Illinois for only the second week this year and had the chance to travel around the district. I visited Buffalo Grove, Glencoe, Grayslake, Greenwood, Highwood, Lincolnshire, McHenry, Mundelein, Northbrook, Vernon Hills, Wheeling, Waukegan and had the chance to talk to many different people about what’s happening in Illinois and Washington.
It’s been a whirlwind of a week in Washington, DC following President Trump taking office on January 20th. I don’t know about you, but I am for sure saying “thank goodness it’s Friday!” I can’t remember a recent week similar to this one. It started with the 60th Presidential Inauguration, where the nation watched President Trump take the oath of office in front of all living former presidents.
Happy Holidays! Irrespective of the temperate weather outside, I hope you can find time to celebrate the season and spend special time with family and friends, enjoy delicious meals, and exchange thoughtful presents.
Greetings from sunny Chicago. I am happy to be home this weekend before returning back to Washington, DC for the Presidential Inauguration. |

Happy New Year! Despite the winter cold, I hope you had a wonderful holiday season with family and friends and are off to a great start in 2025. I was lucky to spend a few quiet days with my family and am feeling refreshed and rejuvenated as we kick off the year.
