If Republicans ram through their nominee, the fate of the ACA will be before a 6-3 conservative SCOTUS on November 10th—one week after the election. If we can stop them, we can save our healthcare & protect pre-existing conditions for millions. That's #WhatsAtStake. — PolitiTweet.org

If we want to fully recover from this pandemic and get our economy back on track, we must make air travel more accessible for everyone—including working mothers. I look forward to the president signing my bill to do just that into law. https://t.co/wFL8Ygy7JN — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s get this straight: Instead of following his own Admin’s guidance & wearing a mask, Trump put Gold Star Families & our military’s leadership at risk—& now he’s trying to BLAME THEM for his negligence? He has no shame & his negligence is putting our national security at risk. — PolitiTweet.org

*Reports that Iran may be planning an attack on the US Ambassador to South Africa* Donald Trump: Unverified or not, the reports on this attack alone merit a full response from the president. *Reports that Russia is offering bounties for American servicemembers* Donald Trump: — PolitiTweet.org

Two years ago, with the passage of the FAA Reauthorization Act, Congress took the first step in making air travel easier for parents by passing my FAM Act. Now, we are building upon that success. I look forward to this bill being signed into law. https://t.co/vwlDYIYJOH — PolitiTweet.org

When traveling, you’d never be expected to eat your meal in a bathroom stall, yet for many new moms that’s their reality. I'm proud my Friendly Airports for Mothers Improvement Act passed the House, ensuring all airports support breastfeeding travelers. https://t.co/TrLVAY0xMz — PolitiTweet.org

After months of denial, Republicans' negligence finally caught up to them at their super-spreader, super-irresponsi… https://t.co/IGWZP3rREJ — PolitiTweet.org

Countless patriots have bled, fought and marched for your right to vote. Don't waste it. Don't let their sacrifices be for nothing. Illinoisans—if you'd prefer to vote by mail, you have 22 days to request your ballot. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Trump is a failed businessman. Now, this tax cheat has brought his incompetence to the White House—wreaking havoc on everything he touches. He squandered his inheritance, and he definitely can't be trusted with our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month & as the #COVID19 crisis continues, we must do more to help victims & survivors who are enduring the unimaginable at home. Yet, the White House let #VAWA expire. The Senate must vote now to expand it & help protect those who are at risk. https://t.co/vUp2lJGeUr — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

If another conservative justice is added to the Supreme Court, there will be real-life consequences for those with pre-existing conditions—including #COVID19 survivors. The ACA could be overturned, protections would be gutted & health insurance could charge more. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

On this day, five years ago, President Obama signed the Gold Star Fathers Act into law to provide the fathers of our fallen troops long overdue support and recognition for their sacrifice. Five years later—Gold Star families deserve so much more from Donald Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

How long do I have to do this, @realdonaldtrump? Tell our troops why you've remained silent on #BountyGate for 103 days. I'm waiting. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Our vote is our voice. It's our power. I'm hoping every eligible voter will use it this year because this election is too important to sit out. There are only 23 days left to request a ballot in Illinois. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

He's asking us to believe that if given 4 more years, he will suddenly—magically—learn how to negotiate & govern. But if we've learned anything in Trump's America, it's that Donald Trump will never change. He will never get it, and he will never be able to truly lead our nation. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

He's denying families, healthcare workers & millions of Americans who are out of work stimulus checks and help to keep literal roofs over their heads.   Just to prioritize jamming through a SCOTUS nominee who could end the ACA and pre-existing condition protections. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Maskless event after maskless event—after catching COVID and receiving world-class healthcare paid entirely by taxpayers, the man who should be leading our nation is instead turning his back on those same taxpayers who funded his treatments that they may never have access to. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Throughout #COVID19, our nation has relied on the work of essential workers—day in and day out. Everyday heroes like those at @USPS & @SocialSecurity deserve to keep their hard-earned paid leave that they haven't been able to take because of COVID-19. https://t.co/QHGUzwsJIG — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

To all my Republican colleagues: where have you been for 102 days? The current Oval Office occupant has not stood up to Putin about the reported Russian plot to kill our troops and your continued silence enables him. Shame on you. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

With just weeks before November 3, I'm urging you to vote in whatever way works best for you—vote early, vote by mail, just VOTE! If you're mailing your voter registration application, it must be postmarked today! You have 24 days left to request a mail-in ballot in IL. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

I fear that, if confirmed to the nation’s highest court, Judge Barrett would be unable to resist the temptation of overturning decades of judicial precedent in an effort to force every American family to adhere to her individual moral code. https://t.co/1ebD5PeBKw — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

We've lost more than 200,000 lives in this pandemic, yet the Trump Administration has undermined public health experts at every turn. We need an investigation into this political interference https://t.co/yOV2A4EW2W — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Over 200,000 Americans have died and all McConnell seems to care about is filling RBG's seat with a right-wing nominee who could overturn the ACA and take healthcare away from millions. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

RIGHT NOW, Trump is in court trying to take healthcare away from millions—including protections for pre-existing conditions. During a deadly pandemic that's killed more than 210,000 Americans. While he has the very disease that will be considered a pre-existing condition. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

While my two beautiful little girls are unique, my story of struggling with fertility is not. I hope my Republican colleagues fully consider the message that a vote for Judge Barret will send to families like mine. https://t.co/4akJJN39BY — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

101 days of presidential silence on reports that Russia is offering bounties for the deaths of our troops. Shame on this Coward in Chief. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

The Trump Administration may have been unprepared to handle this pandemic, but we can't let that happen again. I'm proud to join @PattyMurray in introducing legislation to invest in public health infrastructure & help protect Americans from future crises — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

After asking the white nationalist Proud Boys to "stand by," now Trump is asking his supporters to "enlist" in his tin-pot dictatorial "Army" that has ZERO connection to the actual @USArmy he refused to serve in. He's trying to scare Americans away from voting. It won't work. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

"Don't be afraid of COVID" says a man who just got world-class taxpayer healthcare (& treatments many Americans can't access) & who's in court right now trying to rip insurance away from millions. Meanwhile, 210k Americans are dead & more will die as a result of this negligence. — PolitiTweet.org
