It was an honor to host you today, @SecretaryPete! Together, we have an opportunity to create historic, lasting investments in infrastructure for Illinoisans and Americans everywhere. https://t.co/QKxHwghaWL — PolitiTweet.org

As of 2019, 20% of all transit stations across the U.S. did not meet ADA accessibility standards. A great way we could mark the ADA's upcoming 31st anniversary is by passing my ASAP Act to help transit systems provide accessible transportation for all. https://t.co/fs5U9sQRCM — PolitiTweet.org

I was disappointed by the recent decision limiting E15 production.   That's why I helped @SenAmyKlobuchar & @SenatorFischer introduce this bipartisan bill to increase access to clean biofuels and support the hardworking farmers who feed & fuel our country. https://t.co/A3BuZc0JVd — PolitiTweet.org

Those brave enough to defend our democracy overseas shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to have their voice heard in that same democracy at home. ICYMI: My new bill to strengthen military voters’ right to vote. https://t.co/W1vS8n0uwT — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the expanded #ChildTaxCredit begins providing an additional $250-300/month per child to working families. Because of @POTUS and Democrats' American Rescue Plan, help is on the way. https://t.co/JjFJvkFFOO — PolitiTweet.org

Building back better for all Americans requires all hands on deck. Glad @GovPritzker got together with @POTUS to talk about how we can thrive beyond this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

It may feel like deja vu, but I'll say it again: Go get vaccinated. It’s good 4 u. https://t.co/VaTFT92S8j — PolitiTweet.org

Voting is a constitutional right, not dictated by your race, gender, location or size of your wallet. The organized effort to undermine the vote must end. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

We should be doing everything we can to strengthen voting rights across the country. That’s why, today, I introduced this bipartisan bill with Senator @JohnCornyn that would increase access to the ballot box for our troops. https://t.co/jggdzRPXyJ — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone, including seniors and people with disabilities, deserve to live with dignity. Tomorrow, join @SenBobCasey, @RepDebDingell, @ElenaHung202 and I as we talk about how we can build back better by expanding home and community-based services. https://t.co/YIM0rIG82F — PolitiTweet.org

I’m pleased to announce the U.S. has sent 1.5 million COVID-19 vaccines to Indonesia today—bringing the total to 4.5 million and reminding us all that no country is 100% safe from COVID-19 until all countries are.   I’ll keep working to bring an end to this pandemic everywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

The cost of diapers is skyrocketing. I’m working to pass my End Diaper Need Act to better support our nation’s diaper banks so that families don’t have to choose between buying something as essential as diapers and putting food on the table. https://t.co/Q30noZJQKe — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Withdrawing our troops from Afghanistan without securing the safe return of Illinoisan Mark Frerichs would be an abject failure. Now is the time to redouble our efforts to make sure we secure Mr. Frerichs’ safe release and bring him home. https://t.co/4HGS7rdVzD — PolitiTweet.org

Congrats to Argonne for celebrating 75 years! Argonne is one of Illinois’s crown jewels of scientific innovation, and our state and country are better off because of the incredible work that its dedicated scientists and engineers are doing. — PolitiTweet.org

One week from now, thanks to President Biden's American Rescue Plan, the expanded Child Tax Credit will begin to help working families and lift millions of children out of poverty. This is a big deal, folks. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

This pandemic still isn't over, folks, but this is another important milestone our state reached this week. Do your part and get vaccinated so we can see more of these days in the future. Keep it up, Illinois. https://t.co/Tn0Mye3gQU — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

This is good news. With many Americans still unemployed, the last thing they need is added costs. At the federal level, I’m proud I helped make sure Illinoisans aren’t saddled with another bill for mistakes they didn’t make. https://t.co/hCcR5blBNG — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

It was an honor to have you in Illinois today, @POTUS! Building back better means investing in workforce development and child care programs like those at @mcc_edu. I look forward to continuing to advocate for our working families together. https://t.co/jFkFLKVJRP — PolitiTweet.org

Over 10 million homes and kids in over 400,000 schools and childcare centers still drink water from lead pipes. With President Biden's leadership and my Drinking Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Act, I'm confident we'll do what it takes to clean up America’s drinking water. — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t let the blatant voter suppression in our states go any further. We need to move quickly to expand, protect and strengthen the right to the ballot box for every American. Congress must pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to fully restore the VRA. — PolitiTweet.org

#3: The Healthcare Opportunities for Patriots in Exile (HOPE) Act of 2021 would allow eligible deported Veterans the opportunity to temporarily parole back into the United States to seek the VA healthcare they've earned through their service and sacrifice. — PolitiTweet.org

#2: The Immigrant Veterans Eligibility Tracking System (I-VETS Act) of 2021 would ensure we include a Veterans service record in their citizenship application, making it possible to expedite their naturalization. — PolitiTweet.org

#1: The Veterans Visa and Protection Act of 2021 would prohibit the deportation of Veterans who are not violent offenders, help them become naturalized through military service and ensure they receive the benefits they've earned. — PolitiTweet.org
