To honor the lives lost and ensure this chapter of our history is never forgotten, I'm proud I reintroduced legislation earlier this week to finally designate this site as a national monument and preserve its history for generations to come. Let's make it happen. — PolitiTweet.org

In reaction to this horrific tragedy, activists hungry for justice came together and set out to form the NAACP to help the community rebuild and restore what was lost.   And ever since, they've been instrumental in pushing our nation toward that more perfect Union for all of us. — PolitiTweet.org

On days like today, I reflect on the Springfield Race Riots. In 1908, a mob of white residents torched Black homes and businesses—murdering at least 6.   Their intent was clear: Springfield may be the home of Lincoln, the Great Emancipator, but Black Americans were not welcome. https://t.co/Z25CRzgADz — PolitiTweet.org

Happy birthday, @NAACP!   For 114 years, the NAACP has remained a guiding light and leading defender in civil rights, racial justice and equality for all—regardless of skin color, zip code or income. And did you know their roots began in Illinois? 👀 — PolitiTweet.org

I am proud to work beside a leader like @SenatorDurbin on the bipartisan Dream Act. This bill would protect young people across America from being forced out of the only home they've ever known. Let’s not fail them. — PolitiTweet.org

There are people still waiting to hear from @SouthwestAir after falling victim to their holiday meltdown—and it's been *more than a month.*​​​​​​​ Make no mistake: yesterday's hearing was only the beginning of our work to hold Southwest fully accountable. https://t.co/BQffR9LUhG — PolitiTweet.org

Southwest Airlines' holiday meltdown was appalling. We must crack down on carriers that have got away with predatory practices that treat customers like suckers and view passengers with disabilities as disposable. Proud to help do this as Chair of the Aviation Subcommittee. https://t.co/IuntYW7Suh — PolitiTweet.org

It shouldn't take another 30 years to finally provide our kids' school nurses, bus drivers and other school staff with the FMLA benefits they rightfully deserve. This can't wait. We must act now on my legislation to modernize our nation's leave system. https://t.co/kRLkjbQCcT — PolitiTweet.org

“All federal legislation sunsets in 5 years. If a law is worth keeping, Congress can pass it again.” If Social Security and Medicare really aren't on the table... you might want to remove it from your campaign website, GOP. Just a thought! — PolitiTweet.org
