Mail-order prescriptions are a lifeline for vulnerable populations during this pandemic. These delays are absolutely unacceptable. Postmaster General DeJoy needs to get USPS back to running at full capacity immediately. https://t.co/xkdcGfugOu — PolitiTweet.org

My colleagues & I called for USCIS to delay furloughs last week. But using this as an excuse to delay naturalization & other critical immigration cases is unjustified & unacceptable. USCIS has sufficient funding to continue its operations without interruption. — PolitiTweet.org

All Illinoisans, regardless of their political persuasion, must be able to safely and successfully participate in this election. @USPS must address constituent concerns about voting by mail by taking all steps necessary to ensure the timely delivery of election mail. — PolitiTweet.org

Today @SenDuckworth & I followed up on this call from last week with @USPS and @illinoissbe by sending a letter discussing the recommendations made on the call and urging USPS to process election mail expeditiously and treat all mail-in ballots & applications as First-Class Mail. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 3 years since the Burmese military undertook its latest campaign of violence against the Rohingya people in Burma's Rakhine state, forcing 700,000+ people to flee to Bangladesh. The Rohingya deserve justice & the Burmese gov't & military must be held accountable. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Trump Admin’s illegally appointed Acting DHS Secretary is breaking the law. Again. @DHS had no right to pause DACA renewals in the first place. SCOTUS rejected Pres. Trump’s repeal of DACA. That means the Trump Admin must fully reopen DACA or the courts will force them to. — PolitiTweet.org

The Department of Homeland Security said it is resuming renewals under the DACA program, nearly a month after it in… https://t.co/g7rwc4Raz8

The George Floyd #JusticeInPolicing Act has been sitting on Sen. McConnell’s desk for two months now. And just this week, America watched as yet another unarmed Black man—Jacob Blake—was shot by police. @senatemajldr, the time for action is now. Let us vote on this bill. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
While the Trump Admin tries to explain away its incursions into the independence of immigration courts, its supposedly neutral policies tip the scales of justice against immigrants during the #COVID19 crisis. Read our letter: https://t.co/FtgUagPqv2 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
In February, my Senate colleagues & I sounded the alarm on the Trump Admin's ongoing campaign to erode the independence of our immigration courts. I'm calling for a @USGAO investigation into the mismanagement of the Executive Office for Immigration Review. https://t.co/OcW8XIE8K6 — PolitiTweet.org

Climate change is an existential threat to life as we know it. I'm proud to support @SenDemsClimate #CaseForClimateAction—a roadmap for big & bold solutions to the most important challenge of our lifetimes. You can read more about our plan here: https://t.co/By0YncY1mp — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of undermining the integrity of the dedicated public servants at the FDA, the President should be focused on supporting our federal agencies as they work to develop a safe & effective COVID-19 vaccine. This nonsense about the “deep state” will do far more harm than good. — PolitiTweet.org

As the 2020 census moves towards its final stage, it's estimated that more than 38 million households remain uncounted. Illinoisans—please do your part to ensure a full & accurate count of your community by going to https://t.co/7JsL3kmCAY. https://t.co/8hMm8sFtzh — PolitiTweet.org

When I heard that children’s hospitals like @LurieChildrens were getting shut out of #COVID19 funding, I reached out to @SecAzar to ask him to reconsider. Pleased that my appeal was heard & Lurie received $23M last week. Great speaking to Dr. Shanley today about this new funding. — PolitiTweet.org

How many more times will America wake up to news of Black men and women being shot by police before Congress takes action to address excessive uses of police force? The House passed the Justice in Policing Act in June. @SenateGOP needs to bring it up for a vote. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I’m heartbroken by the horrific shooting of Jacob Blake. My prayers are with Jacob and his family as he fights for his life, and his young children as they face the trauma of what they witnessed. This shooting must be fully investigated without delay. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
.@SenateGOP let this happen. By allowing these federal benefits to expire, they decided to put partisan politics over the well-being of the American people. But it’s not too late to change course. Republicans need to come to the negotiating table. — PolitiTweet.org

These prescriptions are essential for seniors, patients with disabilities, veterans, and those living in rural parts of our state. It is unacceptable for these folks to be worried about not receiving their mail with their life-saving medications. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This morning I joined @ToniPreckwinkle, @RepBobbyRush, @RepDannyDavis, & @RepCasten to discuss how recent @USPS changes have negatively impacted Illinoisans who receive their medications by mail. USPS handles 1.2 billion prescription drug shipments each year. https://t.co/YbkGGYdpwY — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. McConnell should bring the Senate back to Washington to vote on the Delivering for America Act immediately. Whether it’s meds, paychecks, or benefits like Social Security, millions of Americans rely on USPS. We owe it to them to keep the mail running on time. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The grace period for the CARES Act federal eviction moratorium ends today, leaving millions at risk of eviction & homelessness. Sen. McConnell should bring the Senate back from recess so we can get back to work. These families need #RentReliefNow. https://t.co/zOhPjXxACc — PolitiTweet.org

I introduced the REFUND Act with Sen. Rob Portman to hold Pharma accountable & save Medicare billions. Our bill passed through Committee, but is wasting away on Senator McConnell’s desk. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
In 2017 & 2018, Medicare spent $1.4B on cancer drugs that were thrown away. Why? Because Big Pharma produced over-sized vials with a higher dose than is needed, leaving seniors & taxpayers to foot the bill on these discarded medications. https://t.co/ky5ivqqHMX — PolitiTweet.org

Illinois also has a law that any ballot postmarked on or before Election Day will be counted if received by the election authority within 14 days after the election. — PolitiTweet.org

On our call with USPS and @illinoissbe, USPS said that IL voters planning to vote by mail should request a mail-in ballot no later than Oct 19 and return their ballots no later than Oct 27. Illinoisans must be able to vote safely w/ confidence that their ballots will be counted. — PolitiTweet.org
