The Trump Administration knows very well that this rule will be swiftly blocked by the courts, but they continue to play political games instead of working with Congress on a bipartisan basis to fix our broken immigration system. — PolitiTweet.org

Punishing migrant children with indefinite detention is immoral and un-American and will not make us safer. We can secure our border while treating families fleeing horrific persecution with compassion & humanity. I strongly oppose any efforts to eliminate the Flores Agreement. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks the 45th anniversary of the Equal Educational Opportunities Act, which prohibits discrimination in our schools. @BestyDevosED should use this opportunity to recommit to the mission of that bill - ensuring equal participation & an equitable education for every child. https://t.co/qGvD3N8a9r — PolitiTweet.org

Yet another loophole in the system making it too easy for those prohibited from buying guns to get their hands on them. Facebook must address this misuse of their platform & the Senate needs to pass universal background check legislation to prevent this kind of workaround. — PolitiTweet.org

Gun violence is traumatizing an entire generation. That’s why I've passed legislation to help children who face trauma & joined forces with hospitals to launch the Chicago HEAL Initiative, aimed at addressing the root causes of this violence. https://t.co/nx3n0yjPPz — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see Illinois join more than a dozen other states in challenging the Trump Admin’s changes to the public charge rule. This Admin’s plan to limit legal immigration based on an applicant’s wealth is entirely un-American. https://t.co/YNv2GO7rJI — PolitiTweet.org

@SenDuckworth @SenStabenow @SenGaryPeters @USDA Glad to see that @USDA will defer the accrual of interest for all agricultural producers’ spring 2019 crop year insurance premiums.

This rule will only harm those who already struggle to access quality, affordable health care. That’s why I’m joining @SenDuckworth, @PattyMurray, & @SenateDems in writing HHS Sec. Azar to oppose this new rule. You can read our letter here: https://t.co/dhsQqHcQDr — PolitiTweet.org

Seven years ago, the DACA program began accepting applications from Dreamers across the U.S. With Pres. Trump taking his cruel efforts to repeal DACA to the Supreme Court, Senate Republicans should do their job and pass the American Dream & Promise Act. https://t.co/HIHZlbnRP3 — PolitiTweet.org
