There are some elected officials who spend their time running towards the cameras, and seeing how they can boost their social media profiles.
And, then, there are those who came to work and better the lives of their constituents.
Lauren Underwood is in the latter.
She has been plugging away, trying to help those in her district. If you have a few dollars, and wonder what freshman Congresscritter deserves those coins, look no further. Send them to the Congresswoman from Illinois.
People and families across northern Illinois are struggling to afford life-saving drugs. It’s the most common issue I hear about while hosting town halls and local events in IL-14. I’m proud to have fought and passed #HR3 through the House this month. pic.twitter.com/lXvOuAZcLu

You know that this is close to my heart. I have posted several times about the abomination that is the insulin crisis in this country😠😠😠
THIS JUST IN: I’m very excited to share that my legislation, the Lower Insulin Costs Now Act was just signed into law as part of the government funding bill! 🎉
This legislation will make lower-cost, generic insulin available more quickly nationwide. pic.twitter.com/4ScXOLGE9u

This year, I’ve introduced 30 pieces of legislation, passed 13 through the House, and held 14 town halls in our district.
We’ve done a lot in 1 year, team. I’m running for re-election to continue making effective change for my community. Chip in tonight: https://t.co/QVRMbCjon5

Carson has the flu. Please pray for our sweet baby. Dr prescribed Tamaflu
Oh, the poor baby. Tamiflu should help with the severity. Praying for Carson…
I’m at Carson’s house now. I had to come see about our sweet baby. His fever has broken. Thank God. His temp was 102. He broke out in hives all over his body.
Poor baby.. what a bummer, but he’ll be over the worst in no time, SG.. lots of Glamma hugs, healthy fluids.. a humidifier will certainly help.. and perhaps, his favorite Christmas gift/toy close-by to help get him over missing out on all the magical Christmas fun..
I’m so sad now. Our baby has the flu. I know you all will do whatever you have to do to ensure he recovers soon. After he does, would you please post some more pics of him? Thanks.
Prayers for sweet Carson 🙏
May the medicine do its job, and healing is swift for our darling 😢😢
