Rep. Nicolle Grasse

Calls on President Donald Trump to stop the actions of his administration that are making communities less safe, undermining the rule of law, and raising the cost of living. Urges federal lawmakers to instead prioritize comprehensive reforms, including a pathway to citizenship, and focus on the safety of every community, the economic security of every family, and the rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution.

Maddy summaryThis Illinois House resolution (HR 119) calls on President Trump to abandon proposed tariffs, arguing they would increase costs for Illinois families and businesses. It specifically highlights risks to Illinois agriculture (like soybeans), manufacturing, and the state's top trade relationships with Canada and Mexico - impacting thousands of jobs. The resolution does not create new laws but formally opposes the tariff plans based on economic projections of higher living costs and market instability. It is a symbolic statement, not a binding policy change.

Condemns President Donald Trump's efforts to undermine equal pay, make workplaces less fair, and limit opportunity. Condemns the false, hateful comments President Trump and his allies have used to impugn and demean working people. Renews commitment to prioritize equal pay for equal work, opportunities for all, and protections in our workplaces in Illinois.

Condemns President Donald Trump's cruel and lawless efforts to block lifesaving services that help people access healthcare, put food on the table, afford housing, and more. Urges the United States Congress to take clear and unequivocal action to check the undemocratic actions of the Trump Administration that violate the constitutional separation of power. Renews the commitment to helping Illinois families get ahead by supporting the services they need to be their best, expanding access to affordable healthcare, and reining in the cost of living.
