On #MilitarySpouseAppreciationDay, let's all take a moment to recognize the important role military spouses play in our nation's defense and military readiness. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why I am glad the Senate unanimously passed my bipartisan Vaccine Save Lives resolution. This Mother’s Day, make sure you are taking the right steps to protect yourself and the children around you from measles. https://t.co/MRVuPt8mR1 — PolitiTweet.org

A recent report shows that Cook County is still the most at-risk county for a measles outbreak in the nation. As the mother of two young daughters, I know #VaccinesWork and are crucial to our nation’s public health. — PolitiTweet.org

Chicago’s two major international airports make Cook County one of the most likely places for a measles outbreak, a… https://t.co/iaTdhttMZS

As a member of the @SenateCommerce, I want to ensure that every rail system is equipped with the best #RailTech available. Glad I was able to attend the rail technology expo in the Senate and see the industry’s leading tech first-hand. https://t.co/EaP4rDFYi2 — PolitiTweet.org

I consider myself the luckiest person in the world because I get to wake up on Sunday & spend Mother’s Day being a mom. As a working parent, I know that making our policies friendlier to working families helps parents stay in the workforce, making our nation that much stronger. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Mother’s Day is Sunday! To celebrate, I just introduced 4 family-friendly bills. They would: ✅ Make sure no child goes without diapers ✅ Improve childcare access for student-parents ✅ Promote family-friendly workplaces ✅ Expand FMLA benefits to more school workers — PolitiTweet.org

On the first jummah (Friday) I'd like to wish the Muslim community, Ramadan Mubarak! Non-Muslim allies can use this month to express solidarity w/the Muslim community by advocating for safety and peace, & by challenging ignorance, injustice and hatred anywhere it rears its head. https://t.co/h4N3opGLHD — PolitiTweet.org

Good news! VA is opening a Clinic in McLean County to help Veterans access the healthcare services they earned. I hope VA takes the necessary steps to ensure the new Clinic in Bloomington has trained Designated Women’s Health Providers. ⬇️ https://t.co/StweG2jwZv — PolitiTweet.org

No child should go without the diapers they desperately need, and I’m proud to help parents and communities ensure no child does by introducing the #EndDiaperNeed Act with @SenatorCasey today. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations @SenJackyRosen on giving your maiden speech! I’m glad to have her voice in the Senate and look forward to working together to defend every American’s right to quality and affordable health care. — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed meeting w/@FAANews Admin nominee Stephen Dickson before his hearing to discuss his vision if he's confirmed. Some of my priorities include protecting the 1500 hour rule to save lives & passing my TIFIA for Airports bill to expand critical investments in infrastructure. https://t.co/jyx3h0bAVE — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
It’s always good to have lunch with fellow members of Illinois’s Congressional Delegation. Today, we were also joined by Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot. Excited for the opportunity to work together to advocate for the people of Chicago and advance our city’s priorities. https://t.co/JFbxIFVyZ4 — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Was great to meet with Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot today to discuss how we can work together to advocate for the people of Chicago and how Congress can support new investments in infrastructure and ensure Chicago has the resources it needs to remain a world-class city. https://t.co/o23ABMKdT3 — PolitiTweet.org

The @ChiUrbanLeague is working hard to ensure disenfranchised voices are represented and everyone gets counted accurately in the upcoming census as the Constitution mandates. I enjoyed meeting with their CEO Barbara Lumpkin yesterday to discuss these critical issues. https://t.co/fGF5ov9Ftj — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump can’t claim to be “pro-life” while pushing for rules that endanger women’s lives, trying to strip healthcare away from Americans or supporting policies that rip toddlers out of their mother's arms. Watch my full speech here: #MothersDeserveBetter https://t.co/pi6HoRrgOE — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Glad I got to meet w/members of @MachinistsUnion and hear what challenges they face and how pension cuts would hurt their families. I will continue to defend their rights to collectively bargain and keep advocating for stronger labor rights and protections for all workers. https://t.co/L04v8ha4KN — PolitiTweet.org

He changed my life, and selfless acts of kindness like this are repeated in classrooms across this country every single day. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
As 16-year-olds we loved him, but couldn’t understand why he made us stay after school so often. Now, I understand why he made us stay so late. He was feeding us – even on a public school teacher’s salary. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Time and again, my English teacher saved me and a few other kids from going hungry by having us stay and do work after the final bell, reaching into his own pocketbook and giving us each a few dollars to get food on our way home. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I know firsthand the difference a teacher can make in a child’s life. While I was in high school, my dad lost his job & my family relied on food stamps to get by. I remember going to the grocery store and counting out the last five food stamps to get some baloney and white bread. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting @UChicago graduate @paulmromer and congratulating him for his Nobel Prize in economics. We had a great discussion about transportation, congestion and innovation. https://t.co/Ji8o4QueoI — PolitiTweet.org

No more women should die from preventable causes on what should be the most special day of their lives. We must pass the MOMMA’s Act to address our nation’s growing maternal mortality crisis, which disproportionately impacts women of color&those living in underserved/rural areas. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we had an important discussion in the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on the meaningful reforms we can take to prevent sexual assault from happening while ensuring survivors are able to heal and resume the careers they dreamt about when they entered the military. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
It’s clear: sexual assault remains a crisis in our nation’s military and far too many of our men and women in uniform do not trust they’ll get the justice they deserve if they pursue it through the current system. https://t.co/Rbep2u2OmB — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump can’t claim to be “pro-life” while pushing for rules that endanger women’s lives, trying to strip healthcare away from Americans or supporting policies that rip toddlers out of their mother's arms. #MothersDeserveBetter, I’m speaking LIVE now: https://t.co/OxfYwkjQrF — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been *one year* since the Trump Admin began separating thousands of children from their parents at the border, & w/each passing day, it's only getting worse. They have still FAILED to reunite many families they tore apart. We must keep holding the Trump Admin accountable. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I’m also calling on @DHSOIG to audit whether DHS has overlooked the highly explosive and flammable nature of EtO and the security issues associated with it. https://t.co/xhbuUYIWvd — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
The role of federal agencies like EPA is to protect public safety, not the profits of the chemical industry. That’s why I urge @EPAAWheeler to use and apply the 2016 classification of EtO to evaluate health risks and set health protective standards and emissions restrictions. https://t.co/Al511sRbjm — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Last week, I wrote to both @EPA & @DHSgov to urge the agencies to take more action against ethylene oxide emissions. For years we've been aware of EtO's risks, a known carcinogen, but to appease the chemical industry, EPA started accepting comments questioning that classification — PolitiTweet.org
