Unfortunately, the military has failed to address the sexual assault crisis and far too many of our men and women in uniform do not trust they’ll get the justice they deserve through the current system. 1/ https://t.co/NjvLxrNKFZ — PolitiTweet.org

This is a flashing 🚨 but Donald Trump’s comments this week gave foreign countries the green light to proceed. Mitch McConnell must stop blocking the Senate from voting on good, bipartisan bills to prevent future election interference ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

We must do everything we can to ensure the memory of the 1908 Springfield Race Riots & the lessons learned won’t be forgotten. Glad to have toured its excavation & look forward to its designation as a national monument, ensuring its historical & cultural importance is recognized. https://t.co/IhNRxkfkm3 — PolitiTweet.org

"Crib bumpers" are deadly products that have no place on store’s shelves or in an infant's crib. That's why I introduced the Safe Cribs Act with @RepSchakowsky, @ChrisVanHollen & others to ban the sale of these products in the United States. ⬇️ https://t.co/NLCAC1ntPZ — PolitiTweet.org

Great to see so many friendly and familiar faces today when this year’s class of @IWILSpringfield members came by the Capitol this week. It’s great to see so many inspiring women who are leaders in our communities #IWillICanAndIDo. https://t.co/GmUNH6a1qx — PolitiTweet.org

Immigration makes us stronger. It boosts our economy. And it makes us smarter, widening our perspectives and leading us to treat those who speak, look or love differently than we do as equals. Congratulations to our newest citizens. We are proud to have you in our community. https://t.co/JyTVG7aWdF — PolitiTweet.org

I’m so proud to have witnessed this Naturalization Ceremony in Springfield and call those taking the Oath of Allegiance my fellow Americans. We are a nation of immigrants, and we know that our diversity is what makes our nation so great. https://t.co/skjsyxvPXV — PolitiTweet.org

I was honored to speak at Illinois’ Veterans of Foreign Wars convention yesterday. Anyone who is willing to serve this country as faithfully as our Veterans – who repeatedly put country over self – deserves the best when they hang up their uniform. https://t.co/RUiiP9AnFr — PolitiTweet.org

Farmers across the Midwest are hurting + ethanol plants are idling while refinery waivers are being abused to benefit big oil companies & undermine #RFS. I'm proud to work with @SenatorFischer on this bipartisan legislation to bring much-needed transparency to the waiver process. — PolitiTweet.org

Two months ago, I returned from my first trip back to Iraq, where I saw how important continued U.S. engagement in Iraq is to prevent a resurgence of ISIS & help Iraq remain a strong & independent nation. I was glad to discuss this w/Iraq’s Ambassador to the U.S., Fareed Yasseen. https://t.co/VDKaOSMXho — PolitiTweet.org

As a former member of the Illinois National Guard, ensuring our Guardsmen have the resources they need is on one of my top priorities. Glad I got to meet with Brigadier General Richard C Neely to discuss how we can work together to make that happen! https://t.co/n4xyt7YYyW — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll keep working to pass my bipartisan Martha Wright-Reed Just and Reasonable Communications Act so that no more families are forced to pay these exorbitant rates just to speak with their loved ones. #PhoneJustice https://t.co/9nz2aUn2Tz — PolitiTweet.org

I'm glad @AjitPaiFCC and all FCC Commissioners (from both parties) made it clear yesterday that they support efforts to clarify their agency’s authority to end predatory prison phone call rates that gouge vulnerable families. — PolitiTweet.org

So I joined @SenatorDurbin, @SenatorMenendez, @SenSherrodBrown & 20 of my colleagues to call on @CFPB Director Kathy Kraninger to reverse this rule. 3/3 Read here: https://t.co/oElRQuUPhk — PolitiTweet.org

That’s inexcusable, esp since the government receives hundreds of thousands of complaints each year about these abusive debt collection tactics, including attempts to collect debts that have already been paid or attempts to collect $ from the wrong person. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

THREAD: Tired and annoyed about how many robocalls + scam calls you’re getting? Well, a new Trump Admin rule would allow debt collection companies to inundate and harass consumers nationwide with an unlimited number of emails and texts – and up to 7 calls per week. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Disasters don't discriminate against communities based on their population size or what state they are in. Neither should @fema. @SenatorDurbin + I are working to reform FEMA's broken formula so Illinoisans across our state can access the resources they need if disaster strikes. — PolitiTweet.org
