Illinois Congressman Sean Casten's 17-year-old daughter Gwen died on Monday morning at their family home.

The suburban Chicago Democrat's office said that the Casten family requests privacy after Gwen passed away without providing further details about her death.

'This morning, Congressman Casten's beloved daughter, Gwen, 17, passed away. The Casten family requests privacy, and we will be issuing no further comment during this heartbreaking time,' the office said on Monday.

The teenager died at the family's Downers Grove home, police told the Chicago Tribune.

Downers Grove police officers were called to the house just before 7am 'for an unresponsive 17-year-old female', the police said, according to the outlet. 'First responders determined that the subject was deceased.'

Gwen was active in the political sphere and followed in the footsteps of her father by fighting for social causes that she was passionate about, such as gun control.

Maybe Casten can get behind stopping the Fentanyl drug suppliers that are pouring across the border. Maybe he can thank China for their supply. Maybe he can actually do something to makes things better instead of his own bs.

Democrats are using kids as political pawns, which makes their futures look pretty grim.

I would bet this was the case here (suicide), with the possibility that it was the clot shot a distant second.

Most likely suicide or fentanyl poisoning is my guess.

This child of a lib most likely grew up indoctrinated that the world is shit, theres no God, criminals are people who weren’t loved as children and just need the right person to love them, we’re all dead from global warming, and so on.

oh, gay then most likely, and suicide. Since no one will offer psychological counseling to gay people anymore, then have to suffer in their mental illness alone and eventually off themselves.

Definitely NOT my favorite deadly sin.

I wrote that on Twatter two weeks ago and got a 1 week time out.

What this sounds like is major depressive disorder and/or bipolar mood disorder, both of which have very high rates of suicide compared to normals.

Focusing on all negative issues not only makes for very unhappy people, but makes liberals.

My girl’s 26. I can only imagine the progressive democrat family’s pain.

RIP

****************************************

Yes, but it could have also been a drug overdose.
The police were called before 7AM, so it appears she was not found until morning.

Her parents likely steeped her in a life of the world is so unfair and the planet is dying.

They should actually view this, if a suicide, as their success.

A picture worth a million words.

Not surprised by either an accidental overdose, suicide, or yes her 4th booster.

When people don’t have solid foundations, they buy all sorts of garbage this evil world sells.
