We can’t let President Trump stumble into a war with Iran on behalf of the Saudis. Another war in the Middle East would be ruinous for everyone involved. https://t.co/mgzyl8O3u0 — PolitiTweet.org

Although #ChildMortality is declining, the world still lost 5.3 million children under 5 last year, mostly from preventable or treatable causes. That's why I support continued US leadership for maternal, newborn, & child health programs around the world. https://t.co/dvuIDQxeua — PolitiTweet.org

.@US_FDA are you seeing this? No more time to wait – we need to regulate these devices and get kid-friendly flavors off the market immediately. https://t.co/I6TpMIy07D — PolitiTweet.org

Studies have shown that even a 10% tax lowers tobacco use by as much as 5%. The @Surgeon_General and @WHO have called it the most effective way to reduce tobacco use. I think the same will be true for e-cigarettes. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
My Tobacco Tax Equity Act establishes the 1st federal e-cigarette tax. It will close loopholes exploited by Big Tobacco to avoid the taxes, & it will double the federal tax rate on these products & peg it to inflation so it remains an effective public health tool in the future. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
It’s time to start taxing e-cigs. The single best way to keep these products out of the hands of kids is to price it out of their range. That’s why we passed taxes on cigarettes years ago, & it’s why I’m introducing a bill later today to start doing the same to e-cigarettes. https://t.co/cvh76mv0CQ — PolitiTweet.org

.@Gulalai_Ismail risked her life to advocate for the rights of women in Pakistan, and was forced to flee her home as a result. Human rights defenders like her – and her family -- should be celebrated and not attacked or harassed. https://t.co/n6C4rZDcQU — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorBraun @USDOT This new office would be dedicated to strengthening federal attention and improving outreach on rural transportation infrastructure issues in America. You can read more about our bill here: https://t.co/VDsBGZJksr — PolitiTweet.org

I constantly hear from farmers & rural Illinoisans about serious transportation infrastructure needs in their communities. Today, I introduced the bipartisan Rural Economic Infrastructure Equity Act with @SenatorBraun to create a new office w/in @USDOT to focus on these issues. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to join @CongressmanRaja and @RepPeteKing in leading the bipartisan, bicameral Caucus to #EndYouthVaping. Like Big Tobacco before them, #VapingTargetsKids for a reason. They’re trying to hook an entire generation on nicotine. We must not allow that to happen. — PolitiTweet.org

#VapingTargetsKids. In the last 2 years, the number of children using e-cigarettes has more than doubled. Today, more than 1 in 4 high-schoolers are vaping. And 10% of middle-schoolers are. @US_FDA must not drag their feet any longer. Ban e-cig flavors now to protect our kids. — PolitiTweet.org

The Constitution is clear - only Congress can declare war. Two wars in the Middle East are already too many. A third in Iran would be disastrous. The President must not bumble into war with Iran. https://t.co/jMCxa5vqs3 — PolitiTweet.org

Today I met with Amb. Barbara Barrett, nominee to be @SecAFOfficial. If confirmed, I look forward to working w/ her to get Springfield @IL_Natl_Guard 183D Wing flying again & to ensure @usairforce has the funding to rebuild after natural disasters & to keep our nation safe. https://t.co/I3mhINKf6z — PolitiTweet.org

The resulting damage to our military – & to Congressional authority – continues to pile up. I urge my Republican colleagues to join Democrats in reasserting Congressional authority & assuring our military families that they haven’t been forgotten amidst foolish campaign promises. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We all remember then-candidate Donald Trump’s idea that we need a 2,000 mile wall from sea-to-shining-sea, and his claim that Mexico would pay for it. But Mexico said no, and now President Trump has decided that our military and their families should pay for it instead. — PolitiTweet.org

If President Trump is going to deny the science behind climate change, then Congress must step up and take the lead. That’s why I’m joining @SenatorBennet & other @SenateDems to introduce the Clean Air, Healthy Kids Act. We must reject the President’s anti-climate agenda. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s always great to have the chance to meet with Chief Judges Rebecca Pallmeyer and Diane Wood whenever they’re in Washington to chat about their priorities and concerns for Illinois. https://t.co/ywc3KJg2m7 — PolitiTweet.org

IL constituents are writing in about robocalls, and for good reason. Robocallers placed 172M calls to Illinoisans in August. This has got to stop. Today, @SenDuckworth and I wrote to the @FCC Chairman urging him to take action to end this scourge. You can read our letter here: https://t.co/Z5p3MMeBLJ — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
President Trump is risking our national security to fulfill a failed campaign promise. His useless wall isn’t going to solve the problem at our southern border. These funds should be spent as Congress intended - to support our military & their families. https://t.co/ffw2u4QKGD — PolitiTweet.org

On the 72nd birthday of the @usairforce, we thank our Airmen and women, especially those working at @ScottAFB and @IL_Natl_Guard, for their leadership, sacrifice, and continued exemplary service to our country. #HBDUSAF — PolitiTweet.org

The people of Puerto Rico deserve better. They deserve the funds that Congress has allocated for disaster recovery. I’ll continue working with my colleagues to hold this Administration accountable and make sure Puerto Rico gets the aid it so desperately needs. #2YearsAfterMaria — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Trump Admin. is defying the law in order to purposely punish the people of Puerto Rico and stop them from receiving federal disaster assistance. And now the President is taking an additional $155M from FEMA’s disaster relief fund for his useless wall on our southern border. — PolitiTweet.org

After years of inaction & a lot of phone calls, letters, & meetings with me, @US_FDA says they’ll do the right thing on vaping. I hope that by the end of the year—at the latest—all e-cig flavors, including mint & menthol, will be off the market. FDA must enforce this promise. https://t.co/2LLe7CSYQd — PolitiTweet.org

Children shouldn’t have to fear for their lives every day when they go to school, but that's the sad reality of living in America today. It breaks my heart. Leader McConnell, it’s time to listen to the American people. Call a vote on the bipartisan background checks bill today. https://t.co/HVDOZUdYY7 — PolitiTweet.org
