Time and time again, when severe weather strikes communities in Illinois, our state struggles to receive federal assistance. It’s unfair and wrong. FEMA’s disaster declaration process must be made more transparent and equitable for communities in larger states like Illinois. — PolitiTweet.org

This is about national security and our right to vote in a constitutional democracy without foreign interference. Clearly, the President has not learned from his previous mistakes. Sen. McConnell must wake up & pass legislation to protect our elections. What is he waiting for? — PolitiTweet.org

As we work to reduce the use of solitary confinement in our prisons, we must provide our correctional officers with the support & resources they need to stay safe. Great to meet today with Council of Prison Locals to discuss ways to reduce solitary without increasing risks. https://t.co/lY2zLnqerP — PolitiTweet.org

Is it any surprise that the GOP tax cuts aren’t actually going to pay for themselves? Congress should pass my Working Families Tax Relief Act and put money back where it belongs – in the pockets of hardworking American families. — PolitiTweet.org

I was back on the Senate floor today to once again call on Sen. McConnell to bring the House-passed #DreamAndPromiseAct to the floor for a vote. The eyes of hundreds of thousands of #Dreamers are on Washington and the Senate right now, but all they see is a legislative graveyard. https://t.co/1F73bo1kla — PolitiTweet.org

This @washingtonpost editorial is exactly right. “It is a dereliction of duty for Congress and the administration not to take up on a most urgent basis the defense of the nation’s democratic process.” Why is Sen. McConnell ignoring these threats? — PolitiTweet.org

Is there any humanitarian concern for children on the other side of the aisle? If there was, Sen. McConnell would bring the bipartisan, House-passed #DreamAndPromiseAct to the floor for a vote. End the legislative graveyard & fix the #DACA crisis President Trump created. https://t.co/m0FfYy0HLW — PolitiTweet.org

The UAE must address Mr. Mansoor’s troubling political detention.

I’m deeply concerned by the UAE’s treatment of Ahmed Mansoor, the human rights activist detained as a political prisoner since 2017. Throughout that time, Mr. Mansoor been denied many of the same rights he fought for as an activist – leading to his own arrest. — PolitiTweet.org
