I owe more than I can say to the thousand activists who came together 30 years ago—the dozens who got out of their wheelchairs & crawled up the 83 steps of the Capitol—to demand that Congress give Americans with disabilities the basic rights our Constitution promised. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Proud to see these patriotic Veterans, even after taking off their uniforms, continuing to uphold their oath to protect and defend the Constitution and the most quintessentially American right: speaking truth to power and speaking out against injustice. — PolitiTweet.org

If Donald Trump doesn't care to read over his briefings regarding potential bounties on the heads of our troops, my colleagues and I will—just send us the materials. 29 days of presidential inaction is 29 days too long. Our troops deserve better. https://t.co/KKZ7i23AUT — PolitiTweet.org

Like so many, I'm scared that I'm my kid's sole source of education right now. I'm a pilot & Senator—not an educator. But if schools open, it MUST be done safely. And this #COVID19 relief bill must include #PaidLeave & #ChildCare to give families the support they need. — PolitiTweet.org
Paid Leave for All @PaidLeaveforAll
We cannot safely reopen or return to in-person learning without paid sick days and paid leave for all workers. We m… https://t.co/vt3WEJdiBx

Not only did the GOP waste a week with infighting & bickering—they've wasted MONTHS since the House passed the #HEROESAct to help Americans struggling to get by as the #COVID19 crisis worsens. Democrats have been ready to act. @senatemajldr, let us vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Senate Republicans and the White House wasted a week at the worst possible time https://t.co/GbwAFoAs0q

For centuries, our nation has relied on the sacrifices made by coal country—and coal workers—to industrialize and power our nation with affordable energy. We can’t afford to leave them behind. — PolitiTweet.org

With a new bill to rescue coal country, @SenDuckworth floats plans that go beyond training coal miners to code. She… https://t.co/A5pZ1IqEGh

No one who works full-time should struggle to make ends meet—especially during the worst public health & economic crisis we've seen in our lifetimes. We need a fair, livable wage for all American workers. — PolitiTweet.org

It's been four weeks since we learned that Putin reportedly offered cash for the murder of American troops. Tick tock, @realDonaldTrump. Your silence speaks louder than words. — PolitiTweet.org

The ADA made my life possible. For #ADA30, I’m grateful for the thousands of activists who demanded that Congress give Americans w/ disabilities basic rights. But our work isn't over. Every issue is a disability issue & I'll keep fighting like hell for a more inclusive world. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
It was a pleasure to chat with RADM Donna Cottrell, commanding officer of @USCG Ninth District. I look forward to working with RADM Cottrell to ensure the health and safety of Illinoisans in the Ninth District and to support the men and women of our Coast Guard. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
State and local governments have been treading water for months, trying to support their communities without enough funding to meet the needs of this unprecedented health and economic crisis. @SenMajLdr, support FULL funding for them that was included in the HEROES Act. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Bob Casey @SenBobCasey
Yesterday I led 36 of my colleagues in requesting that Ldr McConnell support the funding & flexibility for state an… https://t.co/khHR0…

After the murder of #GeorgeFloyd, countless Americans have used their First Amendment rights to call out for racial justice. What happened in Portland to stifle these rights has no place anywhere in America. My colleagues & I are demanding answers from @DHSgov, @CBP & @ICEgov⬇️ https://t.co/HNcir7A6t7 — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
This story makes me sick. When Navy Veteran Christopher David asked these unidentified federal agents in Portland why they weren't honoring their oath to the Constitution, they beat him—spraying him w/ tear gas & breaking his hand. We’re better than this. https://t.co/2aGAvyOYFH — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
While Americans everywhere cry out for racial justice, @SBAgov should do all it can to help address the gender & racial inequalities within the business community. So my colleagues & I want to know *why* SBA closed down the program that helps with this mission. https://t.co/rPfKZejQaO — PolitiTweet.org

Remember how quickly Donald Trump spoke out & defended military bases named after Confederate traitors who took up arms against the Union? It's been 27 days and he still hasn't done anything publicly about Putin reportedly putting bounties on the heads of our troops. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
John Lewis nearly laid down his life on the Edmund Pettus bridge for voting rights. To honor this hero's legacy, I helped introduce the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act today, which would combat voter suppression. @senatemajldr, bring it to the floor immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

It's shameful that our nation's Black maternal mortality rate is so high. This #BumpDay is a great day for the Senate to vote on the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act. All moms-to-be deserve to have healthy pregnancies, safe births & access to perinatal support. — PolitiTweet.org

The world is better when women are among those in command. 21 years ago, Col. Eileen Marie Collins became the first female commander of a space shuttle. She logged over 872 hours in space—work that has inspired & paved the way for countless women to climb the ranks at @NASA. https://t.co/JfIxjtBVjN — PolitiTweet.org

Twenty. Six. Days. 26 days have passed & the Commander in Chief *still* hasn't publicly condemned Putin for reportedly putting bounties on our troops or done anything publicly to protect our servicemembers abroad. We need an open hearing on #BountyGate. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Awful, tragic news and my thoughts are with the families of the victims tonight. #Enough. We need common-sense gun reforms now. It's past time for the Senate to have a vote. https://t.co/IrhlJXGKr0 — PolitiTweet.org

More than 140,000 Americans died before their President was willing to clearly tell the country what experts have known for months: masks save lives. https://t.co/Es6z8wZ2wd — PolitiTweet.org

With the Senate moving to final consideration of the NDAA this week, timing couldn't have been better to congratulate the newly selected Secretary of Defense Executive Fellows! It was a pleasure to discuss our national defense policies with you. https://t.co/dmBMbSheqj — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
If Donald Trump wants to do something about gun violence, he should call up Mitch McConnell and tell him to have a vote *today* on universal background checks. But bringing in federal agents to police Chicago streets like he did in Portland? Don’t even think about it. https://t.co/yeO28dwSiD — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Trump wants to claim that he’s the “law & order” President, but what we saw happen in Portland isn’t law & order, it’s a violation of civil rights and of our Constitution. @SenatorDurbin & I are telling him: don't do this in Chicago. https://t.co/Z3CluoEETn https://t.co/IpbxhqAyUW — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump admin wanting hospitals to report #COVID19 data to them instead of the @CDC is not only confusing - it's potentially dangerous. Healthcare providers shouldn't be tasked with a new reporting system while *literal* American lives are on the line: https://t.co/DEMHKw6hbP — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
That's why I'm introducing legislation with @SenJeffMerkley & Sen. @RonWyden to block these dangerous actions and make it clear that we won’t simply let Trump stomp on the rights of any American citizen https://t.co/7BeTwWBEBp — PolitiTweet.org
