Thanks to the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, $15 million was awarded to the @FLYPIA to construct the airport’s new air traffic control tower, which is a critical economic engine and transportation link for Central Illinois. https://t.co/iZ6mcBpEyt — PolitiTweet.org

We must ensure that Humvees in the fleet – used across combat and training & in other operational capacities – are updated with safety kits. We must also address stability issues to ensure no more lives are lost in preventable tactical vehicle accidents. https://t.co/vgruwdDvbl — PolitiTweet.org

The @IBEW Local 34 Peoria Area Electrical Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee offers students quality education while giving employers highly-trained workers. This program has brought jobs to Central Illinois, and I was fortunate to meet some members today. https://t.co/wISgCTAP95 — PolitiTweet.org

Born in 1928 in Zeigler, Illinois, to Ukrainian immigrants, Nick was a pioneer in the world of science. His passing is a great loss to U of I and our state. https://t.co/1votaJbbZj — PolitiTweet.org

DACA is a lifeline for more than 600,000 #Dreamers who make America a better nation. The 5th Circuit decision is a call to action for Congress. Pass the #DreamAct now & give these amazing young people a real path to legal status in the only country they have ever called home. — PolitiTweet.org

There’re also unjust arrests: Raif Badawi, finally released after 10 years in jail, but unable to leave SA to reunite w/ family in Canada. Waleed Abu al-Khair, human rights lawyer still in jail. Salma al-Shehab, women’s rights activist facing outrageous 34 year prison sentence. — PolitiTweet.org

From unanswered questions about 9/11 & the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, to conspiring w/ Putin to punish the US w/ higher oil prices, the royal Saudi family has never been a trustworthy ally of our nation. It’s time for our foreign policy to imagine a world without their alliance. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy to see that current DACA holders can continue to live & work in our communities for now. Sadly they must still spend each day living in fear that they may lose their protections under the law. It is past time that Congress gave them certainty & permanent legal protections. — PolitiTweet.org

I've been a longtime supporter of the Springfield Rail Improvements Project, and I'm proud to see it coming to life.

The Fed’s new rule is a win for competition & for Main Street merchants & consumers who are tired of big banks & giant card networks trying to rig the game. This rule will ensure a choice of online debit network options. My thoughts w/ @PeterWelch https://t.co/VcfE7YknYd — PolitiTweet.org

For-profit colleges often bury first-gen, low-income, & veteran students in debt and worthless degrees. Critics of Biden’s student debt relief plan have ignored the harm of this industry. Student loan forgiveness will give these students a second chance. https://t.co/bHWwqJDS3F — PolitiTweet.org
