If you listen to what Sen. McConnell’s been saying, it sounds like impeachment will get a show trial in the Senate. The American people deserve more. We must do our job & do it professionally—that means witnesses, documents, & testimony. 4 GOP Senators can make that happen. https://t.co/zBRD7aiJiS — PolitiTweet.org

The bipartisan PREVENT Act will establish a user fee that will fund prevention programs in schools to steer kids away from vaping & help those already struggling with nicotine addiction while holding Big Vape accountable. https://t.co/0yYAFJvvF3 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
With more than 5 million kids now using e-cigarettes, the youth vaping epidemic is out of control. I'm taking action with @RepPeteKing & @CongressmanRaja to address this public health crisis and prevent the next generation of American kids from a lifetime of nicotine addiction. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I hope my colleagues will stand with veterans in support of this resolution when it comes to the Senate floor for a vote. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Proud to have the support of the @AmericanLegion for S.J. Res. 56 to overturn the DeVos borrower defense rule which would prevent defrauded student veterans from getting the federal student debt relief to which they are entitled. https://t.co/MnRuqJFMqO — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I have long argued that raising the tobacco age should be coupled with provisions to ban kid-friendly e-cig flavors like gummy bear, cotton candy, & sugar cookie. Sadly, the GOP-controlled Senate has consistently sided with Big Tobacco and fought efforts to address youth vaping. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Congress will soon raise the federal tobacco purchasing age from 18 to 21. This is good news, but does nothing to address the youth vaping epidemic that has already hooked 5M kids on e-cigarettes. https://t.co/eGpWjeXfBU — PolitiTweet.org

I welcomed the opportunity to urge Cuban Amb to US José Ramón Cabañas to play constructive role in ending humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, to end detention of Cuban democracy advocate Daniel Ferrer, & resolve questions about medical concerns related to our diplomats in Havana. https://t.co/i3c4zfbhIa — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
What will it take for @DEAHQ to acknowledge that 8 BILLION opioid doses – approved by DEA in midst of nation’s worst drug epidemic in history - are dramatically more than could ever possibly be used for legitimate medical purposes? DEA must do more to hold Big Pharma accountable. https://t.co/cGmMjqan37 — PolitiTweet.org

Joining @HardballChris on @MSNBC soon. Make sure to tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

In particular, I appreciate the extension of Arsenal lease authorities to continue to allow private tenants to work closely on base—like at Rock Island Arsenal in IL—& the simplification of a foolishly complex process to ensure that veterans receive their due honorary promotions. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Senate’s passage of the NDAA today shows that we are all committed to a strong national defense and to the protection of our women and men in uniform. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
A longtime advocate for peace building, the @USIP has been a valuable partner in establishing conflict resolution dialogues around the globe. Sat down today with @USIP President @nancylindborg to hear about her recent visit to Afghanistan & the future of the nation's peace talks. https://t.co/rFknQXMDGM — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Proud to join @SenBlumenthal & 20 @SenateDems to introduce the Safe Gun Storage Act & promote safe gun storage. Establishing safety standards for firearm locks & safes should be a no-brainer. This is about saving lives. Safe gun storage will do just that. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Glad to see the amendment I passed with @SenatorLeahy restricting U.S. visas to all those involved in the troubling detention of Filipina Senator Leila de Lima included in the final FY20 appropriations bill. It’s time for her politically motivated imprisonment to come to an end. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
FMLA needs to cover more family members—like grandparents, siblings, & adult children. I'm introducing the Family Medical Leave Modernization Act with @RepMaloney to ensure that all employees have the same rights to care for their loved ones. https://t.co/b7EEHqBU4Z — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 was an important first step in protecting families' economic security, but approximately 40% of today's workforce is not eligible for leave under this outdated legislation. As families change, so should the laws designed to help them. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We owe it to the American people to demonstrate impartial justice by conducting a full & fair trial in the Senate. If there's a witness out there who’d exonerate Pres. Trump, wouldn’t he want that person to testify? 4 Republican Senators can make that happen. I hope they will. https://t.co/CG3OIqismk — PolitiTweet.org

IMPORTANT: Today is the last day to sign up for a health insurance plan under the ACA for next year. Make sure you #GetCovered for 2020 and find a quality, affordable plan that will work for you by calling 1-800-318-2596 or going to https://t.co/wM43rjghRC today. — PolitiTweet.org

There’s absolutely no good reason to deny the 67,000+ military widows across the U.S. from receiving their full Department of Defense and Veterans Affairs survivor benefits. Glad to see @SenDougJones get this bill across the finish line. #WidowsTaxAxed — PolitiTweet.org
Doug Jones @SenDougJones

I called on the @USNavy to make good on its promise to Russell Dotson—serve long enough & you can use your GI Bill benefits for your kids' education. Glad that the Navy decided to correct their error & restore benefits for Dotson’s children. https://t.co/BX2Qw2WbaL — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We must bring accountability to these schools & close this unfair loophole. I’m introducing the Foreign Medical School Accountability Act to do just that. https://t.co/kBZiYPvgRb — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
While most overseas medical schools must meet minimum standards to receive U.S. student aid dollars, there is a loophole exempting a small number of for-profit institutions. These Caribbean medical schools leave students with massive debt & less chance of ever becoming a doctor. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
My bill, America's Red Rock Wilderness Act, will protect 8.2 million acres of land in Utah by formally designating these landscapes as wilderness. Read more about preserving Utah's land for future generations here: https://t.co/nuvLrE5RHA — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Utah has acres of untouched wilderness that is rich in archaeological resources. But this land is threatened by continued fossil fuel development & rampant off-road vehicle use. If we want to safeguard Utah's wilderness, we must act now. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I first sent a letter to the Department of Justice in 2017 calling for CPD to have access to this Center’s resources. Having the ability to utilize this technology will help CPD identify shooters and solve crimes. https://t.co/sjuQH44bMC — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
ATF’s NIBIN National Correlation & Training Center houses technology that will allow CPD to submit images of shell casings recovered from crime scenes & match those casings to guns used in crimes. This will be an invaluable resource for CPD in the early stages of investigations. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Since 2017, I’ve been calling for @ATFHQ to enable @Chicago_Police to use ATF’s national ballistics analysis center in order to help generate leads in shooting investigations. Very pleased to see that step was taken today. — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump’s latest personal attacks on Speaker Nancy Pelosi are beneath the dignity of his office, but sadly not at all surprising. If we are to begin to restore civility to our political discourse, we must all reject derisive language. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Climate change is an existential threat to life as we know it. And if we don’t start taking drastic action soon, it will be too late for us all. We must begin by rejoining the Paris Climate Accord—the United States can’t face this crisis on our own. https://t.co/ecCx3CYdlx — PolitiTweet.org
