So great to welcome @FLOTUS to Illinois to honor National #HispanicHeritageMonth and visit Chicago's National Mexican Museum of Art. When we lift up Hispanic and Latinx voices, culture and traditions, we can build a stronger, more inclusive America. https://t.co/uGiykFJwGr — PolitiTweet.org

It was an honor to help break ground today on the new Transportation Center in Springfield. With this groundbreaking, we’re one step closer to creating more good-paying jobs and helping Illinoisans travel our great state—and to building back better for working families. https://t.co/Yw0i32YfbN — PolitiTweet.org

During LGBTQ+ History Month, we remember that so much of the progress we see today was made on the backs of trans women of color.   We can't let them do this work alone!🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 — PolitiTweet.org

Girls are strong, girls can lead and girls deserve every opportunity to follow their heart and achieve their wildest dreams. On this #DayOfTheGirl, let's do our part to build a world where anything is possible for our daughters. — PolitiTweet.org

On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, I hope folks use this time to reflect and learn from our history. Indigenous people were here long before America's "discovery," and they are essential to our future. — PolitiTweet.org

Anyone who loves democracy and wants to strengthen it in our country shouldn't be working to suppress voices and make voting harder. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's be clear. The wealthy never lose access to safe abortions when anti-choice laws are passed. They have the means to travel out of state to get the care they need. A luxury that so many can't afford. The right to choose should be a right for all—not just some. — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing the one and only Reverend Jesse Jackson a very happy 80th birthday! We thank you for all of the work you've done for Americans whose voices should've been heard but weren't and we thank you for all you continue to do. https://t.co/ly0RNgqoHf — PolitiTweet.org

Before you head into your weekend, make a plan to get vaccinated—or a booster shot if you’re eligible. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

There has never been a comprehensive evaluation of how our nation’s maternal mortality crisis impacts women Veterans, which is why I’m so proud my bipartisan bill to commission the first-ever comprehensive study on this issue passed the Senate. Now, let's get it to @POTUS's desk! https://t.co/s4TZGvYQab — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

As we transition towards clean energy, we can't leave behind the hardworking Americans in the energy production sector that have made our everyday lives possible up till now. I'm proud to help introduce legislation to support these workers with @SenSherrodBrown & our colleagues. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Welcome back to Illinois, @POTUS! Thank you for taking the trip out to remind all Illinoisans to trust the science, do their part to save lives and get vaccinated if they can—including those now eligible to get their booster shot. https://t.co/Xn5diDWGIi — PolitiTweet.org

Six years ago, President Obama signed the Gold Star Fathers Act into law—helping give the fathers of fallen servicemembers the support and recognition they deserve. Our nation owes them a debt we can never repay, but we must never stop working to honor their sacrifices. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Good. Now let’s pass the Women’s Health Protection Act to codify Roe and ensure women everywhere have full and equal access to reproductive healthcare. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Heartbreaking texts like these are preventable. Every Senator, regardless of party, shouldn't have to think twice about passing legislation that could help rid our kids' classrooms of this senseless gun violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

No one should pick and choose who can vote. That's why Democrats re-introduced the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to protect the voting rights of every American. Because Democrats won't stop working to ensure you have a voice in our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Our Afghan allies and partners did their part for us, time and again, for two decades half a world away. As they begin to resettle in Illinois we must do our part for them, too. https://t.co/5UeIYBKdjt — PolitiTweet.org

Tax cuts. Climate action. More jobs. For. Working. Families. And our future. That's how to build back better. — PolitiTweet.org

By issuing this executive order, @GovPritzker is sending a clear message that our entire workforce is stronger when Illinoisans with disabilities are compensated fairly for their work. What a great way to mark National Disability Employment Awareness Month. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

This Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, it's past time we break the stigma surrounding pregnancy loss and provide paid leave to hopeful parents suffering through the unimaginable. My Support Through Loss Act with @RepPressley would help do that. https://t.co/0ZhviGrm2g — PolitiTweet.org

Reminder: COVID-19 isn't a red state or blue state disease. It can infect you whether you're a Democrat or Republican. It's not a hoax. It's real and it's deadly. If you can, get vaccinated. — PolitiTweet.org

From making higher education more affordable to forgiving student debt, I look forward to continuing to work with @NEIU to help support all Illinoisans pursuing a college degree—regardless of income or the color of their skin. https://t.co/H0U2VsYSeF — PolitiTweet.org

A government of, by and for the people means voters get to choose who represents them—not the other way around. — PolitiTweet.org

A new study shows more than half of our children ages 0-6 have detectable lead in their blood. More than half. It's time we do better for our kids. We must maintain the significant funding needed for removing lead pipes in the Build Back Better Agenda. https://t.co/NmJKQgwA39 — PolitiTweet.org

Breast cancer does not discriminate based on income or coverage. During #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth, let's remember to schedule our routine screenings, support survivors and continue our work to ensure all Americans have access to the healthcare they need. https://t.co/zHZGZlW2rl — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I introduced legislation to create an independent, nonpartisan commission to ensure the mistakes our nation made in Afghanistan are learned from and never repeated. https://t.co/TNtWVGhh4R — PolitiTweet.org
