Glad that U.S. Attorney John Lausch is doing well after being hospitalized over the weekend and sending my well-wishes to him and his family. https://t.co/aHjQ1chyqr — PolitiTweet.org

There comes a point where thanking moms for all that they do is not enough. Moms deserve paid leave and child care—basic help we can finally give them by passing the American Families Plan. — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: The Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is now approved for those 12 and older—the more people vaccinated, the quicker we can recover from this pandemic.   Make a plan to get you and your family vaccinated by visiting https://t.co/4Hmb8dJOrL. — PolitiTweet.org

Too many young Americans live in areas that lack economic opportunity while struggling with all-too-common violence. It doesn’t have to be this way, but it won't get better unless we do something about it. Proud to join my colleagues in introducing this important legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

No mother should ever have to choose between staying in touch with an incarcerated loved one and paying the bills.   That’s one reason why I introduced bipartisan legislation with @senrobportman to ensure that prison phone rates are just and reasonable. — PolitiTweet.org

Women's Health Week is a reminder of our work to support the health of every woman—including women of color who too often die from preventable illnesses because of medical racism. https://t.co/BC2ppUmcPx — PolitiTweet.org

As we kick off the second week of #APAHM, Senator @MazieHirono and I have a reminder for our fellow AAPI neighbors and all Americans working to stop AAPI hate: We're with you. The cycle of discrimination against the AAPI community must end. https://t.co/T5sm12jc13 — PolitiTweet.org

I know what it’s like to go to bed hungry. Since December, we’ve cut the number of families experiencing that pain by more than 40 percent. That’s what happens when you focus economic policy on families—NOT corporate executives. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

We’ve made great improvements, but we’re not yet on the other side of this pandemic. I’m proud of the work @MadisonCHD, @IL_Natl_Guard & sites across IL are doing to ensure we’re getting shots in arms. I’ll keep working to ensure they have federal support. https://t.co/PRKglOkLCY — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear: The 361 voter suppression bills we see around the country are 361 attacks on the voting rights of Black, Brown and Latinx voters. It seems worth reminding Republicans that voting is a right, not a privilege. We won't be silent while they strip it away from so many. — PolitiTweet.org

I thank my lucky stars (and the miracle of IVF) that every day I get to wake up and be a mom to two beautiful girls. Wishing every mom out there a very happy Mother’s Day💐 https://t.co/BXajWPEWN7 — PolitiTweet.org

It's not the "American Billionaires Plan," it's the American Families Plan—a once-in-a-generation plan to meet this moment and help working families achieve economic security. — PolitiTweet.org

To me and these members of our Coast Guard—investing in infrastructure means investing in jobs, communities, businesses and waterways. Don't you agree? https://t.co/65KTWSDvT9 — PolitiTweet.org

Every American relies on the USPS. We deserve a reliable Postmaster General. #FireDeJoy — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

This #NationalNursesDay, I'm so thankful for all of our nurses, including those in the AAPI community. After a year of rising anti-Asian hate, they've continued to risk their own health to care for the rest of us. They deserve more than our thanks. We must #StopAAPIHate. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Either in or out of uniform—one of the best things we can do for our country is give back through national service. The @NewStarTweets @Americorps program is proving that over and over by supporting individuals with intellectual disabilities across Illinois. #ServiceShoutout — PolitiTweet.org

Our Kurdish partners stood shoulder-to-shoulder with U.S. Forces to stop the spread of ISIS in Syria and the surrounding region, but were abandoned by former President Trump.   We must restore trust & confidence in our allies to achieve our national goals.https://t.co/jlMezQC4NS — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans: 361 new voter suppression laws proposed in 47 states after unsubstantiated conspiracy theories of widespread voter fraud. Also Republicans: 0 attempts to pass commonsense gun reform after multiple mass shootings and daily gun violence tragedies. — PolitiTweet.org

Six decades ago, brave patriots—in spite of the risk of violence—organized the first Freedom Ride into the segregated South to protest hateful and racist policies and demand equality.   We owe it to their sacrifices to continue our work for a more perfect Union. https://t.co/pXM4aHeFEF — PolitiTweet.org

If it wasn't for my high school teacher, Mr. Nakamura, who helped feed me when we didn't know where our next meal would come from, I probably would've had to drop out. It may be #TeacherAppreciationDay, but not a day goes by that I'm not grateful for him. https://t.co/lljcMk2osP — PolitiTweet.org

Letting incarcerated Americans connect with their loved ones not only reduces recidivism, but is also the right thing to do. I applaud Acting-Chairwoman @JRosenworcelFCC for her commitment to promoting just and reasonable prison phone rates. Our work for #PhoneJustice continues. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Thank you, @MazieHirono! While there are so many AAPI heroes to honor this #APAHM, I wouldn't be where I am today without my high school teacher: Mr. Nakamura, who saved my life and my future. Proud to join @SenateDems to lift up AAPI voices. @SenStabenow, who inspires you? https://t.co/lljcMk2osP — PolitiTweet.org

For the last five decades, @Amtrak has shuttled countless Americans from station to station across the country. And with the American Jobs Plan, we'll give Amtrak the investment it needs to be greener, safer, more accessible and help expand its rails from coast to coast. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

The AAPI story is woven into the fabric of our nation's history. #APAHM reminds us of the incredible contributions of AAPI Americans, despite the racist bigotry they continue to endure today. AAPIs are not the "other." And together, we can break this cycle of discrimination. — PolitiTweet.org
