After decades of inaction, we broke the log jam. Bipartisan legislation to enhance background checks, help implement red flag laws, work to close the boyfriend loophole and, ultimately, save lives from senseless gun violence is now law. Thank you to all who made this possible. — PolitiTweet.org

I refuse to let my daughters grow up in a world with fewer rights than I had. Now is the time for the Senate to codify Roe v. Wade into law so that every American in every state has equal access to basic, necessary healthcare—regardless of their skin color, zip code or income. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Doctors working in states where abortion, or even management of a miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy, is outlawed could even be threatened with prison for daring to save a patient’s life. Victims of rape could be forced to relive their trauma every day. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
In a nation with a growing maternal mortality crisis and often inaccessible healthcare, without affordable child care or universal paid leave, forcing births on anyone—even when the mother’s life could be at risk—is not only cruel, it will also be a death sentence. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Millions of families—including my own—have relied on Roe v. Wade for almost 50 years. The Justices who claimed Roe was “settled law,” but then turned around and ruled otherwise, will—as Justice Sotomayor said—"struggle to survive the stench" of this extreme decision. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
I am outraged and horrified—this outcome is a nightmare that robs women of their right to make their own choices about their healthcare and their bodies, and it paves the way for a nationwide abortion ban that Republicans have been seeking for decades. — PolitiTweet.org

THE SUPREME COURT HAS OVERTURNED ROE V. WADE, ELIMINATING THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO ABORTION. https://t.co/ZNYRs3QnpJ
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
After decades of inaction, the Senate finally broke the log jam to pass—in a bipartisan way—what the overwhelming majority of Americans have been crying out for. Tonight, we acted to make our streets, schools and communities safer. Look forward to @POTUS signing this into law! — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
A dangerous and irresponsible ruling. At a time when Congress has finally come together to pass meaningful—albeit, modest—gun safety reforms, the Supreme Court is instead siding with the gun lobby and making our streets more dangerous. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we celebrate 50 years of Title IX—a gamechanger for equality in school. With POTUS rightfully extending these protections to trans students, the Senate must go further and pass the Equality Act to protect all kids from Republican efforts to take away their rights. — PolitiTweet.org

🚨New moms deserve better from TSA and their employees. After multiple reported incidents of mistreatment, @MazieHirono and I led our colleagues today in calling on @TSA to address inconsistent screenings of breastmilk at our airports. https://t.co/mj8SQaA9xw — PolitiTweet.org

We've been waiting for this moment for a long time! Now that COVID-19 vaccines are approved for kids under 5 by both the FDA and CDC, I was sure to get my baby girl Maile vaccinated as soon as I could—and I urge all parents to do the same. https://t.co/IeRFKrvpEJ — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: The U.S. Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee just passed a bipartisan bill to reduce prescription drug costs. While there's more to do to make lifesaving medicine more affordable, passing the Pharmacy Benefit Manager Transparency Act is a good start. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
No American should have to face the unbearable decision of either paying for lifesaving prescription drugs or paying for rent. It's time we cap the price of insulin to $35 per month—saving lives and money for working families everywhere. https://t.co/uvMnJbA8R0 — PolitiTweet.org

For Illinois, these reforms would help crack down on two major issues that drive gun violence in our state: interstate firearms trafficking and irresponsible federally-licensed firearms dealers that repeatedly violate the rules—putting profits before safety. Let's get it done. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
While I'll always keep pushing for more of the reforms that the majority of Americans are crying out for, this bipartisan package is long overdue progress and will help save lives from our nation's seemingly endless cycle of gun violence. I voted yes to move forward. — PolitiTweet.org

On #WorldRefugeeDay, let us remember that our nation has always been a beacon for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and it's on us to ensure it remains that way for generations to come. Let us always lead with strength, not fear, to embrace refugees in need. — PolitiTweet.org

Juneteenth is about so much more than a celebration, it’s also a day to honor Black history and recommit ourselves to uprooting the systemic racism Black Americans continue to endure today as a result of our nation’s horrific legacy of slavery. Now and always, #BlackLivesMatter. https://t.co/dAGDHIQhjv — PolitiTweet.org

If Republicans have their way, victims of rape and incest could be forced to go through pregnancy and birth and relive their trauma over and over. Where's the humanity in that? Roe v. Wade must stand. — PolitiTweet.org

Virginia Tech, 2007: 32 killed. Sandy Hook Elementary School, 2012: 26 killed. Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, 2018: 17 killed. Robb Elementary School, 2022: 21 killed. Not one more. This time has to be different. — PolitiTweet.org

On June 19, 1865, word finally spread to Galveston, Texas, that the enslavement of Black Americans had ended. On this day last year, Juneteenth finally became a federal holiday—a day to celebrate freedom, reflect on our history and renew our work for true justice for all. https://t.co/yLTukOHpFR — PolitiTweet.org

Though I do not support every provision in this compromise, I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to continue improving the NDAA and ensure Congress passes a strong bill that lets our troops know we have their backs. https://t.co/T4kUx4p78p — PolitiTweet.org
