The Senate should immediately pass my Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, the only legislation pending in the Senate to combat white supremacist violence. This is the most serious domestic terrorism threat we face. Enough is enough. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We also asked AG Barr to repudiate President Trump’s view that white nationalism is not a growing threat, and to rescind the Trump Administration’s outrageous decision to stop tracking white supremacist violence as a category of domestic terrorism. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
It has been more than 3 months since I led a letter to Attorney General Barr asking what specific steps the Justice Department is taking to combat white supremacist violence. I still have not received a response. https://t.co/Zvukaqb4X8 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s long past time to call this threat what it is. White supremacy is the most dangerous form of domestic terrorism threatening our nation. If we aren’t willing to confront this threat as such, these attacks will not stop. Inaction is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
After this tragedy, I convened a hearing on what could be done to combat violent white supremacists. Since then, the threat has only grown worse. https://t.co/TmSBdB6Zsd — PolitiTweet.org

Seven years ago today, a white supremacist terrorist shot and killed six people worshipping at the Oak Creek, Wisconsin, Sikh gurdwara. And now, our nation is once again mourning the aftermath of yet another act of white supremacist terrorism. — PolitiTweet.org

This year I introduced three pieces of legislation to specifically lower the outrageous prices of insulin. To address America’s Insulin Scandal, the Senate must take up these meaningful reforms to put patients first. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This morning at @UnityPointNews in Moline I stood with patients and families who are struggling with the skyrocketing cost of insulin. Over the past two decades, we have seen the price of insulin increase more than 600%. https://t.co/AzzA9rAogM — PolitiTweet.org

White supremacists have accounted for more deaths than any other domestic terrorist group in recent years. This is a serious threat to the safety of our nation & we must redouble our efforts to address this senseless, hate-filled, & violent ideology. https://t.co/h1CxU4z5Pe — PolitiTweet.org

The violence was so bad over the weekend that the emergency room at Mt. Sinai Hospital was forced to close for several hours as our hospitals and heroic first responders were stretched to their limit across the city. This is not normal. We must act now. https://t.co/q6j7jPgO0X — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
As the nation grieves with the communities in El Paso and Dayton, we must remember that gun violence is not limited to these tragic mass shootings. There were shootings across the City of Chicago this weekend that left 7 people dead and more than 50 injured by gunfire. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This morning, we wake up to news of nine killed and 26 wounded in Dayton, Ohio, as well as seven wounded in a mass shooting near a playground in Chicago. Is this the new normal in America? Enough is enough. We can’t treat this as normal. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Yesterday we learned of twenty dead and dozens injured in El Paso. Hate-filled, anti-immigrant manifesto. Texas open carry law. Military-grade weapons. Connect the dots and ask yourself when America will say enough. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The tragedy in El Paso is heartbreaking & my prayers are with the victims, those injured & their loved ones. The gun violence epidemic plagues our nation each and every day. We must act now. Commonsense gun reforms will help save countless lives. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Last year, President Trump signed into law another step forward to criminal justice reform, my First Step Act, which made the Fair Sentencing Act retroactive and has so far led to the release of 1,100 people who were serving unjust sentences for drug offenses. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Nine years ago, @BarackObama signed into law my Fair Sentencing Act, a compromise bill which dramatically lowered the sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. It was the first law to counter the war on drugs by reducing unfair federal drug sentences. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
It was great to talk with @ChiPublicSchools students participating in the Lakeview Pantry Summer Jobs Program. Students from all over the city have an opportunity to build upon their civic engagement experience by giving back to the community through the program. https://t.co/dORHuUeqgX — PolitiTweet.org

The 35-day government shutdown is still impacting our air traffic control system, 6 months later. With a shortage of air traffic controllers and the delayed implementation of new safety systems, we need to make sure we’re doing everything we can to secure our aviation system. https://t.co/TerZhYOT1t — PolitiTweet.org

JUUL is targeting our children with their dangerous and addictive products. Companies like JUUL are going to hook another entire generation of young people on nicotine. We can’t let that happen. https://t.co/lRs5MrUd8o — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Stop Illegal Trafficking in Firearms Act will increase safety in our communities by making it an explicit federal crime to act as a straw purchaser of firearms and by creating tougher penalties for trafficking guns to prohibited persons. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Straw purchasing and illicit trafficking often puts guns in the hands of people barred from possessing them, which is why @SenatorCollins, @SenatorLeahy, & I introduced a bill to crack down on these practices. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
While not perfect, this budget agreement will finally allow Congress to work on this year’s appropriations bills and invest in the programs that the American people rely on. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The bipartisan budget agreement reached today will avoid harmful cuts to domestic priorities and prevent a default on our nation’s debt. Most importantly, this agreement will help prevent another disastrous government shutdown. — PolitiTweet.org

Our infrastructure investments should lead to new jobs and growth for disadvantaged small businesses. Proud to introduce the Build Local, Hire Local Act w/ @SenDuckworth, prioritizing local workers & communities of color in any comprehensive infrastructure bill Congress reviews. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Today Republicans in the Senate Judiciary Committee violated multiple Committee rules to jam through a cruel & partisan bill that will do nothing to make our border more secure & targets vulnerable children for indefinite detention and deportation. America is better than this. https://t.co/Lb2Xm5a4c1 — PolitiTweet.org
