I can’t believe what I’m seeing, John

Schakowsky for Congress John, what I’m about to share is upsetting, but it’s the truth:   This is what Speaker Mike Johnson thinks of women. We aren’t people in our own right. We exist just to birth workers to fuel the economy. This is who Republicans voted to be their lead…

the extremist Speaker of the House

This isn’t the first time

Schakowsky for Congress John, We still don’t have a Speaker of the House — this is chaos. With the current state of global affairs, what the GOP is doing is dangerous. They have no plans to govern. They only want to bring chaos. That’s why it's imperative that Democrats take…

another failure by the House GOP

Schakowsky for Congress John, I am so tired of this. Yet again, the GOP called a vote to elect a new Speaker of the House. Yet again, they could not come to an agreement. The People's House is without a Speaker. It’s unprecedented and it’s unacceptable. This is not a game, J…
