A constituent in Lombard reached out to my office for assistance with their pending H-4 visa and Employment Authorization Document renewal applications. My team followed up with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on the constituent’s behalf, which helped resolve the issue.
Are you having trouble with a federal agency? Reach out to my office and let us help. casten.house.gov/services/he…

I am monitoring the flooding in Central Florida and further south.
We remain ready to work with Florida and @fema on any necessary emergency response and relief efforts.
Today, @GovRonDeSantis signed Executive Order 26-227 to expedite resources and assistance to communities impacted by the heavy flooding across portions of Florida.
@FLSERT is working closely with local partners to ensure Floridians receive the support they need to respond and recover.

Single-use plastics, electronics, and street litter travel through storm drains straight into critical habitats.
Trash doesn’t vanish when it hits the water—it haunts our ecosystem for generations. Pick it up.

This is one of the finest, most powerful television ads I've every seen. Do American a favor and share this everywhere.
Heart, not policy papers.
Love, not hate.
Hope, not fear.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.

Last night, we hosted a Firefighter Appreciation event to honor outstanding individuals who help keep Central Florida safe. 🚒
I am proud of our efforts to protect them through federal SAFER grants, the Social Security Fairness Act, and our PFAS Injury Compensation Act.

Today, our office received an envelope with a suspicious substance.
Thankfully, Congressman Frost’s office gave us advance notice to monitor our mail. The envelope was intercepted by local law enforcement, and no staff was hurt.
We are working with federal, state, and local law enforcement to support an investigation. Political violence has no place in our democracy, and we hope those who perpetrated this crime are brought to justice.

Every day, dedicated water utility employees work behind the scenes to keep safe, reliable drinking water flowing, often without the recognition they deserve.
On #ImagineADayWithoutWater, Maryland Secretary of the Environment (@MDEnvironment) Serena McIlwain shared a special message of appreciation for those who work tirelessly to protect public health and ensure our communities have water when they need it.

I thank His Majesty King Charles III for the audience. It is important for me to have the opportunity to personally thank him for his unwavering support for Ukraine. We appreciate all the assistance provided by the United Kingdom.
