I’m calling on @TheJusticeDept to reconsider its approach to ongoing detention at Guantanamo Bay. Every day that the prison remains open, its existence calls into question our commitment to human rights and the rule of law. https://t.co/Yc88F3F75r — PolitiTweet.org

It was an honor to join @POTUS during his trip to Illinois today. I join him in his vision for a building a brighter future for our kids and grandkids and will continue to do everything I can in the Senate to support his Build Back Better agenda. https://t.co/drc6kTXOLI — PolitiTweet.org

The criminal assassination of President Moïse will only further the country’s political and security crises. I’m calling on the UN and OAS to hold emergency meetings on the situation in Haiti and establish a peacekeeping force to help stabilize the nation. — PolitiTweet.org

My thoughts are with the agents and officer who were injured in this morning’s shooting in Morgan Park. Too often, the law enforcement officers on the front lines trying to stop gun violence become victims of gun violence themselves. Praying for their speedy recovery. — PolitiTweet.org

Welcome to Illinois, @POTUS! We’re just as eager as you are to help working families make ends meet. We can rebuild our economy and make it stronger than ever, but we need to keep investing in the American people. https://t.co/drc6kTXOLI — PolitiTweet.org

This is great news, Illinois! But let's not take our foot off the gas just yet. I still encourage all eligible Illinoisans who have not yet received the COVID-19 vaccine to do so. The only way we’re going to put this pandemic behind us is through widespread vaccinations. — PolitiTweet.org

The expanded #ChildTaxCredit will benefit millions of Illinoisans and significantly reduce the number of children living in poverty. I hope Congress will act to permanently expand this groundbreaking tax credit and help families make ends meet on a long-term basis. https://t.co/nE99g1JQnV — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to stand with families and leaders in Chicago today to celebrate the expansion of the #ChildTaxCredit. Beginning on July 15, working families will receive up to $300 per child in tax credit payments every month thanks to the American Rescue Plan. https://t.co/nVRcTTR6Ds — PolitiTweet.org

57 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was signed into law. It overcame the longest filibuster in Senate history. All these years later and the filibuster is still being used to block voting rights legislation. Congress must protect voting rights now. https://t.co/NdkDgBNRiz — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the conservative 6-3 majority on the Supreme Court issued two decisions: making it harder to vote in an election in one, and making it easier to hide major donors in the other. These decisions ultimately target the heart of our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
