President Trump must not be allowed to divert money from critical military construction projects to build his ineffective border wall. My statement with @SenSchumer, @SenatorLeahy, @SenJackReed, and @SenatorTomUdall on reversing the President’s proposed plan: https://t.co/q1JH0KXHjP — PolitiTweet.org

While China must be accountable for unfair trade practices, the President’s trade war has seriously hurt farmers. In our meeting today, I spoke w/U.S. Amb. to China Brandstad about recommitting to our farmers & providing the certainty they need to rebound from a difficult 2019. https://t.co/viIrDcS0Jm — PolitiTweet.org

And last week I wrote, yet again, to AG Barr & @FBI Dir. Wray calling on them to take the initiative in leading a coordinated effort by federal, state, & local law enforcement to disrupt & prevent these violent domestic terrorism & hate crime incidents before they take place. https://t.co/jciljbOCb6 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I reintroduced the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act w/ @RepSchneider today to ensure that the federal government steps up to address these threats. We must ensure that more Americans are not violently attacked because of who they are or what they believe. https://t.co/yD6wETirbo — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Far too many communities have been victimized by domestic terrorism in recent years. For too long, we've failed to take action to combat this deadly menace in our own backyard. We cannot afford to wait any longer. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the #ACA, being a woman is no longer considered a pre-existing condition, insurers can't charge women higher premiums than men, & health plans must cover maternity/newborn care, mammograms, and contraceptive care. We can't let Pres. Trump take that away. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Just this morning, 20 State attorneys general announced their support for overturning the DeVos rule, saying: “if this rule goes into effect, the result will be disastrous for students while providing a windfall to abusive schools.” I couldn’t agree more. https://t.co/YOMCDINd8r — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Congress must put #StudentsFirst & reject Sec. DeVos’ rewritten borrower defense rule. The House will vote this week to do just that. Soon, I will bring a similar resolution to the Senate floor. Senators will have a choice—stand with DeVos or with defrauded borrowers & taxpayers. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Betsy DeVos is doing everything in her power to gut essential protections for student borrowers & taxpayers. Her new borrower defense rule would make it almost impossible for these students to get the relief that they are entitled to under federal law. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Today marks 250 days since the House passed the Protecting Americans with Preexisting Conditions Act, another bipartisan health care bill that is languishing in Leader McConnell’s legislative graveyard. What is Senator McConnell waiting for? #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Despite tough weather and markets, Illinois once again led the nation in soybean production in 2019. It’s a testament to the faith and perseverance of Illinois farmers and 100+ years of soybean production in our great state. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The President is diverting billions of dollars in military funds towards his ineffective wall just days after sending thousands of troops to the Middle East for a potential conflict with Iran. The White House ought to put troops ahead of campaign ads. https://t.co/bsDnnFu3dZ — PolitiTweet.org

Great to see @Rotary, @CDCgov, @UNICEF, and others help Nigeria and the whole African continent work towards soon becoming polio free. https://t.co/yGyHtxwapH — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We must be more caring and considerate than that. While I believe that we should be incentivizing people to move towards jobs, training, & employment, we should not be withholding their food to do so. I urge the Administration to rethink this harmful SNAP policy. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
SNAP serves rural America just as much as urban America – and taking food off the table won’t help anyone get a job. With this “get tough” new rule set to take effect soon, many in Illinois will face new paperwork hurdles as they struggle to make ends meet. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
For many families in Illinois & across the U.S., SNAP is an all-important lifeline that helps puts food on the table. But under the Trump Administration’s new requirements, hundreds of thousands of Americans could lose benefits. That is unacceptable. https://t.co/Z56SyUxNzi — PolitiTweet.org

Speaking on the Senate floor now. https://t.co/7pabtm6LNb — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Pres. Trump held a Rose Garden party when the House GOP voted to repeal the ACA & its protections for people with pre-existing conditions. He supported a failed Senate bill & ongoing lawsuit to do the same. Actions speak louder than words. https://t.co/9aP1LfAlcu — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This week, the House has the chance to put #StudentsFirst by passing @RepSusieLee’s resolution & rejecting Betsy DeVos’ rewritten borrower defense rule. I hope they do. Defrauded students are entitled to this relief under federal law. We can’t let Betsy DeVos take that away. — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight, @ehs_orangerush special ed. teacher Susan Converse will be honored at the College Football Playoff Championship as @ISBEnews Teacher of the Year. Congratulations Susan on your well-deserved recognition & thanks for 23 years of serving students. https://t.co/RBfT3FStha — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
If Pres. Trump succeeds in overturning the ACA, millions of children w/pre-existing conditions could lose their health insurance. If the President was serious about protecting Americans w/pre-existing conditions, he wouldn’t be backing a case to eliminate the ACA. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday I joined @ILAFLCIO and @ILFarmBureau at @BRANDT_co in Springfield to discuss the USMCA trade agreement. Important changes make it better for Illinois farmers, manufacturers, & workers while strengthening labor protections and fair treatment of U.S. products. https://t.co/u0FLfzIVKh — PolitiTweet.org

My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Army soldier Miguel Villalon of Aurora, who made the ultimate sacrifice this weekend while serving in Afghanistan. https://t.co/TpTFpaxkh2 — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why next week I, with @RepSchneider, am reintroducing the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, which would address the threat of violent white supremacists and other domestic terrorists. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Proud to stand by leaders from the Jewish, Muslim, African-American, Latino, Sikh, and LGBTQ+ communities at @loop_chicago in the fight to combat violent domestic extremism. The threat of hate crimes and domestic terrorism is not new, but has increased sharply in recent years. https://t.co/METBCcWmiH — PolitiTweet.org

As Honduras struggles with challenging levels of criminal impunity, U.S. support can make a difference. Today @SenatorMenendez, @marcorubio, @SenLeahy, @timkaine, and I wrote the Trump Admin. to express our support for an extension of the anti-corruption efforts of MACCIH. https://t.co/cO0NIXSSxk — PolitiTweet.org

I’m deeply concerned by reports that ArcelorMittal doctored tests & lied to state regulators after a toxic spill in the Little Calumet River. Read my letter to the editor in today's @chicagotribune on this alarming possible cover-up here: https://t.co/NGpooDTmTC — PolitiTweet.org

Only in America. Big Pharma is suing to avoid having to tell patients the price of their drugs in TV ads. The result of pharma flooding the air with ads? Medicare & Medicaid paid $34 billion in taxpayer dollars on the top 20 advertised drugs in 2018. https://t.co/R5W25jyemo — PolitiTweet.org
