A glowing reminder of what this season is all about—not the presents we get, but the presents we give. Thank you, Hayley. https://t.co/2F6i1BVUTn — PolitiTweet.org

There's only one way to beat this virus, and that's together. It's not easy to hear, but each and every one of us must commit to celebrating the holidays virtually this year. Please. — PolitiTweet.org

But there’s still so much we need to do to help working families, local governments and small businesses weather this storm. In the New Year, Congress must get to work to keep delivering the resources Americans need to get to the other side of this crisis. https://t.co/KaRosNqwqF — PolitiTweet.org

Although this proposal is far from perfect, I will vote for it because it comes with an extension for unemployment benefits and eviction protections, $ for healthcare providers and schools, stimulus checks and expanded testing, PPE and vaccine distribution. — PolitiTweet.org

Our teachers, firefighters and healthcare workers need large-scale relief that matches their heroism during this crisis—and Republicans held that money hostage to advocate for corporate liability shields that would hurt American workers and those with disabilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

After McConnell, Trump and Republicans stonewalled Democrats for months, we were finally able to reach a deal that would provide some relief to hardworking Americans—while also avoiding a government shutdown. But let's be clear: it’s not enough. — PolitiTweet.org

With COVID vaccines on the way, my colleagues @RepChuyGarcia, @RepUnderwood, @RepRobinKelly and I have an important message for our Black, Latinx and Asian American neighbors👇 https://t.co/r3MoiFM0jH — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

While we can see the light at the end of the tunnel with more vaccines on the way, it’s so important that we keep following CDC guidelines to protect our loved ones and our communities. Wear a mask, wash your hands, social distance and avoid large gatherings. Stay safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

At the direction of the Attending Physician’s office and with full confidence in the science, I received my first dose of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine. It's safe and effective. It's how we can beat this virus. https://t.co/xDb5Naz2D3 — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

After being disparately impacted by COVID, the disability community cannot be left behind. Rep. @JimLangevin and I are urging the Biden administration to hire and appoint people with disabilities at every level of government to ensure all 61m of our voices are heard. https://t.co/Ypy5t3sG5i — PolitiTweet.org

An all-too important message from my former staff member Erika Moritsugu. If you have kids, access to paid leave or the ability to work from home has meant *everything.* We must pass paid leave and childcare for those who aren’t so lucky—now. https://t.co/NG6ZgxCFzZ https://t.co/9jvDvtKcUa — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Americans don’t care about the infighting in Washington—they’re worried about where their next paycheck is coming from and whether or not they can put food on the table and pay rent. Our job is to help them and we *have* to meet the moment of this once in a generation crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Working families are barely surviving as it is. Asking them to pay back unemployment overpayments due to a bureaucratic error they had nothing to do with is a sick joke. I introduced the Relief for Working Families Act with @SenatorDurbin and Senator Rubio to put an end to this. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

To protect your loved ones and support our hospitals, please don't travel or gather in large groups for the holidays. We can see the light at the end of this COVID tunnel. Please stay safe. — PolitiTweet.org

But if you won’t take my word on it, Trump’s former Homeland Security Adviser makes his case pretty clear.👇   Silence from the top is not an option. There’s far too much at stake. https://t.co/iN5Jpkm1qm — PolitiTweet.org

After flat-out ignoring a massive cyber-attack on federal agencies, the outgoing president is now threatening to veto the very bill that could help us recover and prevent future cyber threats. The fallout from attacks like this could hurt us for years. https://t.co/M2zlhAzHwH — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Alright, folks, the news that vaccines are being delivered to frontline workers and those who need it most is EXCELLENT. But don't let down your guard just yet. Wear a mask. Social distance. Keep your neighbors and families safe. This will take time. — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

8,000 seniors and Illinoisans living with disabilities depend on SNAP benefits through supportive living facilities—it's outrageous @USDA would jeopardize their access to this lifeline. @SenatorDurbin, @GovPritzker and I won't let this happen. https://t.co/qrXQVQNbC1 — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

The pandemic has only worsened the gaping racial inequities in our healthcare, economic & environmental protection systems that have plagued communities of color for centuries. Proud to join @SenateDems on the Economic Justice Act. It's time we champion true racial justice. https://t.co/j81oHSBz97 — PolitiTweet.org

Still to this day, Trump won’t stand up to the Russians—not when they reportedly put bounties on our troops and not when they hack into multiple federal agencies. https://t.co/aGyMuEg5lX — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Some timeless mom advice I’m reminded of after my two girls got ringworm from our new kitten: Wash your hands. For you, your family, your neighbors—pandemic or not—washing your hands is the gift that keeps on giving. 🧼🎁 — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Trump can tweet all he wants but if he goes against our troops and vetoes the NDAA, we will override it. https://t.co/x1obfM4V4t — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Mayors across this country are making tough decisions about how to spend funds that are stretched so thin—we need to do all we can to help them now. https://t.co/yVE7VRQpaX — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

In June, I led a bipartisan letter with Sen. @MarshaBlackburn calling on @SecretarySonny to get rid of the antiquated bureaucratic formula that cuts off countless military families from accessing @USDA nutrition assistance. He must take action before this problem gets any worse. https://t.co/1C1pQYaIVi — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth

Our military is weakened when servicemembers are unable to feed their families. Expanding SNAP to help address our military’s hunger crisis should be something we can all agree is worth fighting for. https://t.co/USNToRFBmC — PolitiTweet.org
