Mike Quigley, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Illinois’ 5th district since 2009, recently took to social media to highlight key legislative achievements and economic concerns. In a series of tweets, Quigley addressed healthcare costs, veteran support, and economic recovery efforts.

On November 15, 2024, Quigley reminded his followers about the Democratic initiative to cap insulin costs for Medicare recipients. He stated: "Here's your reminder that Democrats capped the cost of insulin at $35 for Medicare recipients. #AmericanDiabetesMonth".

Continuing on November 16, 2024, Quigley discussed veteran affairs by highlighting the impact of the Honoring our PACT Act. He shared: "The Honoring our PACT Act has helped over 1.1 million veterans and counting. Our veterans delivered for us -- now we're delivering for them."

Later that day, Quigley addressed economic challenges post-pandemic. He emphasized bipartisan cooperation to improve financial conditions for families: "Our economy has bounced back from the pandemic, but families are still hurting. Democrats and Republicans should work together to raise wages, fight corporate greed, and ease the financial burden facing Americans."
