3 years ago Illinois banned assault weapons, high capacity magazines, and rapid-fire devices.

Illinois is undeniably safer - we have had fewer mass shootings and less gun violence.

We will keep making progress, and won’t let the gun industry dictate the safety of our state.👊💪

Due to the state holiday, my district office will be closed and will reopen tomorrow at 9:00 AM.

Voters can have confidence that our elections are safe and secure. The right to vote is our most fundamental right as Americans, and it is important that, regardless of who you vote for or how you vote, you make your voice heard by or on Nov. 3: tinyurl.com/yaddxprt

When it comes to artificial intelligence, we can't afford to wait until something goes wrong to figure out who's responsible for protecting the public. (1/4)

While innovation is important, we cannot rely on the market alone to address every challenge AI presents, particularly when public safety is at stake.
That means bringing our state agencies together, preparing for potential risks to health care, and emergency response. (3/4)

These challenges don't stop at state borders, and neither should our efforts to protect the public. Thank you to the Deerfield Rotary Club for the opportunity to discuss these important issues and the work we're doing here in Illinois! (4/4)

Artificial intelligence is advancing faster than ever, and it's important that we have safeguards in place to protect the public. (1/5)

led by State Representative Daniel Didech and State Senator Mary Edly-Allen, which requires major AI developers to undergo independent safety audits to help prevent catastrophic harm, Illinois continues to be at the forefront of AI safety and accountability. (4/5)

While we've made significant progress, there is still much more work to be done. AI continues to evolve, and we need to ensure that innovation doesn't come at the expense of people's safety. (5/5)

Three years after October 7, it remains critical that we listen to our Jewish students and understand their experiences on college campuses. (1/3)

I was grateful to join community leaders and colleagues from the IL Jewish Caucus at Northwestern University for a conversation with students, university leadership, and Hillel leaders about the Jewish student experience and the challenges Jewish students continue to face. (2/3)

Although there is always more work to be done on our college campuses statewide, I appreciate Northwestern’s invitation, Hillel’s leadership, and the students who took the time to share their perspectives and experiences with us. (3/3)

I’m honored to have received the Legislator of the Year Award from the Illinois Psychological Association, alongside my colleague State Senator Lakesia Collins, in recognition of our work to strengthen mental health care and protect patients across Illinois! (1/4)

As AI continues to evolve, we must ensure that technology never replaces the human connection, professional expertise, and trust that are so important to mental health treatment. (3/4)

Thank you to the Illinois Psychological Association and its president, Dr. Margo Jacquot, for this recognition and for their continued advocacy on behalf of patients and mental health professionals across our state. (4/4)
