#MidnightMitch has already admitted he’s working hand-in-hand with Trump on the #impeachment trial & violating his oath to be impartial—but his proposed rules for the trial (holding the trial at 1am??) are yet more evidence that he’s helping the White House perpetrate a cover-up. — PolitiTweet.org

Had the honor of celebrating Dr. King’s legacy this morning at @Push_Excel’s Annual Scholarship Breakfast and @CityYearChicago’s Day of Service. Today gives us an opportunity to give back and help bring the society Dr. King dreamed of closer to reality. #MLKDay https://t.co/6WluELfG8K — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
On #MLKDay, we honor & remember a true American hero. A man who lost his life while working to make this country more free & just, always pushing for equality, inclusion & acts of service. It's on all of us to continue his legacy & work tirelessly toward a better, fairer tomorrow — PolitiTweet.org

To prevent future incidents, I will be requesting that @Amtrak CEO Richard Anderson meet with me to discuss eliminating Amtrak’s nationwide policy of refusing to absorb any costs associated with reconfiguring a railcar to accommodate a group of wheelchair users. (4/4) — PolitiTweet.org

As Ranking Member of the @commercedems Subcommittee on Transportation, I believe Amtrak must do better moving forward. (3/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
The Americans with Disabilities Act has been the law of the land for 30 years. Yet in 2020, @Amtrak believes it would be an unreasonable burden to remove architectural barriers that would enable a group with five wheelchair users to travel together. (2/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
It is outrageous that @Amtrak asked a group of passengers from @AccessLiving to pay $25,000 to ride from Chicago to Bloomington, IL. It is also disappointing that @Amtrak leadership appears to have failed to offer a public apology for its initial mistake. (1/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Joe Shapiro @NPRJoeShapiro
A ticket for the short train ride costs $16. But Amtrak asked two wheelchair riders to pay $25,000. My story on NPR. https://t.co/WKwGafMls5

I'll be pushing hard for witnesses & documents so that I—& all Americans—can carefully review the underlying evidence for each article. Throughout the process, I will be an impartial juror as I carry out the weighty responsibility that now rests on my shoulders as a US Senator. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I will be an impartial juror. To do that, it’s critical that we have witnesses and documents so we can review all the evidence of the case. Then, and only then, can we deliberate. Because: *trials have witnesses and cover-ups do not* — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Today, as the impeachment trial begins in the Senate, I will raise my right hand and once again to swear an oath to this nation. This time I swear to do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws. https://t.co/m1vW1CKPNX — PolitiTweet.org

Transparency is critical to any functioning democracy and we should do everything in our power to increase, not decrease, it. These restrictions on the free press are un-American. — PolitiTweet.org

With historically heavy rainfall this year, soybean producers in Illinois and throughout the Midwest faced a tough harvest. I'm glad I could meet w @ASA_Soybeans this week to discuss my support for #USMCA and other initiatives to support and promote the industry and our farmers. https://t.co/T16Z2cQQXh — PolitiTweet.org

Radon contamination is dangerous and right now, our country isn’t doing enough to protect residents in affordable housing from its deadly effects.

I will always advocate for the brave men and women who volunteer to serve our nation in uniform, and I look forward to working with Mr. McPherson on these issues and many more. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I appreciated the opportunity to meet with Army Under Secretary Nominee James McPherson today. We discussed important issues like advancing the FVL program, strengthening the Army’s logistics capabilities and capacity and prioritizing logistics during the DEFENDER 2021 exercise. https://t.co/6l0DHa8ENH — PolitiTweet.org

Sexual assault remains a persistent problem in our nation’s military – as a recent troubling @AP report on an IL-based Army Reserve unit’s leadership shows. @SenatorDurbin and I wrote to @SecArmy demanding answers today, because something must be done to protect our troops. — PolitiTweet.org

This agreement is not perfect. A stronger one would've addressed – or even mentioned – climate change. Nonetheless, I view it as much-improved from what the Trump Admin initially proposed and a very positive development in creating a more just trade policy for American workers. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
The final agreement also includes increased market access for IL wheat producers & maintains tariff-free access to crucial ag markets for IL soybeans, corn, beef & pork producers. Passage of #USMCA will provide greater stability and certainty for farmers and manufacturers alike. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
For the first time, working families in Illinois will see Congress vote on a trade pact that allows strong and swift enforcement actions against producers who deny their workers the right to collectively bargain—a major victory for workers in my state and across the country. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Today, as the result of the work of Congressional Democrats, we have a #USMCA that works for farmers and manufacturers and features enforceable labor standards to support American workers. https://t.co/36xSFZZumB — PolitiTweet.org

Today I joined @RepCasten and @SenatorDurbin in writing to @BetsyDeVosED to ban the practice of isolation rooms in schools. Simply put: isolation rooms are dangerous, counterproductive and detrimental to our children’s mental health. https://t.co/Wcp5iAK5nC — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Reading this report from the @ChicagoTribune and @ProPublica made me physically ill. It exposes that there are far too many schools across Illinois isolating children—a horrifying practice that is so harmful, especially for those with disabilities. https://t.co/f7ODXOV2XD — PolitiTweet.org
