Rep. Mary Miller, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress representing Illinois' 15th district since 2021, shared several key statements on May 1, 2025, using her social media platform. Miller, who succeeded former U.S. Congress member John Shimkus, has been an active political figure in her district.
In a post made on May 1, 2025, Miller emphasized "Congress holds the power of the purse, and President Trump has begun the defunding of Planned Parenthood." She expressed her commitment by saying, "So when we pass the reconciliation bill, we can include defunding Planned Parenthood, and I will do anything possible to make that happen.”
The same day, a subsequent post by Miller consisted only of a link without any accompanying message, leaving the content and context open to interpretation.
Later that day, in another social media update by Miller, she criticized Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, asserting that he is "failing Illinois: – Siding with criminals – Crippling our economy – Failing our kids – Forcing radical trans policies – Destroying our energy independence." She added, "Families are fleeing our state, and the damages keep piling up! He couldn't care less."
Mary Miller was born in Oak Park, Illinois, in 1959 and currently resides in Oakland. She completed her Bachelor of Arts degree at Eastern Illinois University.
