Recently, we’ve seen numerous major hacks and data leaks of private user information from big corporations -- Congress needs to act to protect Americans’ personal data online. Proud to join @SenBrianSchatz in leading the charge on an impt bill to do that https://t.co/H23A3vp3Ro — PolitiTweet.org

To me, it’s obvious that anyone who actively seeks to demonize parents, or would-be parents, who have struggled with fertility lacks the wisdom, judgment and empathy to serve a lifetime appointment on the federal bench. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I'm deeply troubled by what the confirmation of Sarah Pitlyk to a lifetime appointment to the US District Court for the Eastern District of MO could mean for families like mine across the country. I wrote an op-ed about why I’m voting against her: https://t.co/1cvmK5x0xD — PolitiTweet.org

Like many Americans, my dream of starting a family evolved into a painful struggle that lasted for many years. Without medical advancements, I would not be here today in my most cherished role: a working mother to two beautiful daughters. — PolitiTweet.org

Fun fact: I use the leadership skills I gained as a Gold Award Scout every day in the Senate. Keep up the good work! — PolitiTweet.org

This is fantastic! Way to go Grace & @girlscouts for embarking on Operation Trail of Freedom -- an honorable project making Camp Sacajawea more accessible for all. https://t.co/ULq7racgr3 — PolitiTweet.org

We also discussed my bill to protect whistleblowers and every nuclear worker at the @NRCgov and the Department of @ENERGY from retaliation. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Today I met with Robert Feitel, Nominee for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s independent Inspector General. We discussed the importance of a strong and independent watchdog and the Inspector General's role in ensuring the safe operation of our nation’s nuclear power plants. https://t.co/6WrjQA0d4g — PolitiTweet.org

Unsafe military housing conditions are a public health crisis and a serious threat to our military readiness. We must do better for the brave men and women who serve in our military, as well as their families who also sacrifice on behalf of our nation. https://t.co/DmFCK0Y5y7 — PolitiTweet.org

Happy 201st Birthday, #Illinois! On this day in 1818, the Land of Lincoln joined the union. It is a true honor to serve and represent the people of this great state. — PolitiTweet.org

On International Day of the Disabled Persons, let's reaffirm our commitment to working together for a world that is truly inclusive of everyone. One where the rights of people with disabilities are fully realized. One where we all feel accepted. — PolitiTweet.org

That's one of the reasons why I intro'd the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act to help prevent firearms from falling into the wrong hands. The #BradyBill was important & it's time we build on it. Our streets shouldn’t be more deadly than war zones. #Enough — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
26 years ago the #BradyBill mandated all firearm purchasers undergo federal background checks before taking a firearm home. We need more common-sense laws that will better protect our nation’s schools, offices and public spaces from senseless violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, so on #SmallBusinessSaturday, I hope we all remember to #ShopSmall! — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing a happy #Thanksgiving to all those celebrating this season! I am grateful to have a staff that gives back to their communities through acts of service. https://t.co/95O1F9i46a — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Ahead of #Thanksgiving, it's important to give back to your own community by volunteering just a few hours to those who may need it -- whether at a soup kitchen or in some other way. You can find local service opportunities yourself, too! https://t.co/T7S906nM11 — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, the former Secretary of the Navy *who Trump nominated and the Senate confirmed* accused POTUS of issuing an order that would have forced him to violate his oath to support and defend the US Constitution. This is a gravely serious accusation & it must be investigated. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
President George Washington wisely observed that “Discipline is the soul of an army.” By preventing the chain of command from maintaining good order and discipline, Donald Trump is weakening our armed forces and risks poisoning its soul. — PolitiTweet.org

The @DeptofDefense Law of War Manual clearly states: “The respectful treatment of the dead is one of the oldest rules in the law of war.” It directs: “Enemy military dead must be protected from disrespectful or degrading acts” which includes “posing with bodies for photographs.” — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I’m disappointed @EsperDoD agrees with @realDonaldTrump that violating chapter 7.7 of the @DeptofDefense Law of War Manual (“Treatment and Handling of Enemy Military Dead”) does not warrant a reduction in rank. This threatens good order and discipline. — PolitiTweet.org

Chicago's Southeast Side residents have historically been exposed to dangerously high levels of toxins, which is why I led @SenatorDurbin & @RepRobinKelly in sending a letter to the EPA urging swift action to remediate soil contaminated by manganese. https://t.co/f37Gmjf2AM — PolitiTweet.org

It's unacceptable that the Trump Administration let the Violence Against Women Act expire. Congress must reinstate and expand #VAWA so every survivor in IL & across our nation has access to the services they need. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women is a moment to recognize the work that still needs to be done to make sure women feel safe & protected *everywhere*. Every survivor that has gone through the unimaginable, I'm thinking of you today. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
W/ the Admin seeking to eliminate this critical funding entirely & make this problem worse, our new proposal will make important investments to reduce the critical repair backlog in public housing and keep families safe. Proud to join @SenKamalaHarris & @SenatorDurbin to intro it — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
It’s unacceptable that any Illinoisan—that any American—living in public housing finds themselves in units that are crumbling or unsafe. Kids & families rely on investments like these that help improve conditions, increase security & reduce homelessness. https://t.co/qWba5fPyah — PolitiTweet.org

.@USCPSC should take swift action to ban crib bumpers. Allowing crib bumpers to be sold undermines the Commission’s own safe crib guidance that bare is best. So long as @USCPSC fails to act, I’ll work to pass the #SafeCribsAct to protect families in IL and throughout the country — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Crib bumpers threaten public health. Yet @USCPSC allows them to be sold to unwitting parents. This is unacceptable. That’s why I introduced a bill this summer to ban crib bumpers nationwide: the #SafeCribsAct https://t.co/NLCAC15SYr — PolitiTweet.org
