Mike Quigley, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Illinois' 5th district, recently shared his thoughts and activities through a series of tweets. Quigley, who has been serving in Congress since 2009 after replacing Rahm Emanuel, often engages with constituents via social media platforms.
On March 5, 2025, Quigley announced an upcoming live session to address questions and discuss major news stories. He informed followers that "I'm going live in 5 minutes to answer your questions and address some of the week's top news stories. You can watch at https://t.co/qOMNA0pYCG. If you're not available tonight, you can watch a replay on YouTube later."
Shortly thereafter, on March 6, 2025, he provided an update about the virtual town hall event stating "We're just getting started with tonight's virtual town hall. Join now at https://t.co/hNENDANcvB".
Later that day, Quigley expressed his views on international politics with a tweet about Russia's leadership under Vladimir Putin. He remarked that "Putin’s grip on power is built upon violence and lies. No amount of appeasement can change that. The world is looking to the U.S. for leadership. The decisions we make for Ukraine will reverberate for generations. We must choose to stand for democracy - not bow to autocracy."
