Rep. Mary Miller, a U.S. Congresswoman representing Illinois’ 15th district, recently used her social media platform to address issues related to crime in Chicago and the participation of transgender women in women's sports and spaces.
On August 28, 2025, Miller posted: "For over a DECADE, Chicago has led the nation in murders. This is JB Pritzker’s legacy. Law-abiding residents in Illinois are begging for safety, and President Trump is ready to deliver. Watch @PressSec reveal the facts: https://t.co/BxBHXlbO0S"
The following day, August 29, 2025, she shared her legislative stance on women’s sports: "My bill makes clear: women’s sports and spaces are for women. Biological men don’t belong there — it’s just common sense.
