With arctic temperatures sweeping across Illinois & the U.S., @SenDuckworth & I are concerned that Illinois residents who rely on natural gas will be stuck with massive, unaffordable energy bills. We’re asking the Biden Admin. to step in & provide them with support. https://t.co/x3JTOQRypz — PolitiTweet.org

The increase in hate, harassment, & discrimination targeting AAPI Americans is totally unacceptable. I spoke with members of the Chinese American Service League today about ways that Congress can support our nation's Asian-American communities & small businesses in this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

It is an outrage that human rights champion @SenLeiladeLima has been jailed on such baseless charges for almost four years. I and so many others stand with Senator de Lima and her courageous fight against corruption and tyranny. #FreeLeilaNow — PolitiTweet.org

Putin is afraid of a fair election and free press because he knows he doesn't truly have the support of the Russian people. https://t.co/2rsP1jBAvE — PolitiTweet.org

While COVID-19 has captured our attention, the opioid crisis rages on—compounded by stress, isolation & reductions in services. Spoke with @ASAMorg & @live4lali today about ways Congress can support IL communities & health providers during these unprecedented health crises. — PolitiTweet.org

This #BlackHistoryMonth, Illinois celebrates the life of Harold Washington, the first Black Mayor of Chicago. Washington fostered a new era of progressive politics in Chicago and served as an inspiration for Chicagoans of all backgrounds. https://t.co/X2LXqcn0Za — PolitiTweet.org

Illinois is the sixth most populous state & has the fifth most confirmed COVID-19 cases in the entire nation. Our Community Health Centers serve at-risk populations at one of the highest rates in the U.S. @SenDuckworth & I are calling on @HHSGov to prioritize IL CHCs immediately. https://t.co/TtmspnZs1T — PolitiTweet.org

I am glad that the Biden Administration is launching a program to provide additional COVID-19 vaccines to Community Health Centers across the U.S., but I am disappointed that Illinois CHCs were left out of the first round of this program. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the right decision. There is no reason to allow even more Americans to fall into homelessness during this pandemic. We should be doing everything we can to help struggling families keep food on the table and a roof over their head. https://t.co/zx3TwiaStA — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Presidents’ Day! Today we honor all those who have served as our nation’s chief executive. In particular, Illinois celebrates the four historic Presidents who have called our great state home—Presidents Lincoln, Grant, Reagan, & of course, my friend President Barack Obama. https://t.co/2mKFkvRGm8 — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepRaskin & the House Managers did an outstanding job of setting the record straight about the events of January 6—even Senator McConnell acknowledged that last night in his speech. Donald Trump incited that mob. His revisionists and apologists can’t change that truth. https://t.co/cFWalrNL7t — PolitiTweet.org

Our democracy, our Constitution, & the Capitol building were attacked on January 6. Brave Americans were wounded and killed defending them. We must learn our lessons from this. We will remember January 6, 2021 forever. And we must not repeat it. — PolitiTweet.org

I wish the Senate had sent an unequivocal message that it's unacceptable for presidents to incite violence in order to stop the peaceful transition of power. But it should not be lost that a majority of Senators—including seven from the President’s own party—voted to convict him. — PolitiTweet.org

For the last five days, the House Managers have carefully laid out an overwhelming case for conviction. They had the facts, the law, the Constitution, & compelling evidence on their side. That is why I voted to convict Donald Trump for inciting an insurrection. — PolitiTweet.org

Even at the height of the Civil War, Confederate flags never made their way into our Capitol. How would Pres. Lincoln react to news that a Republican President had sent a mob, waving flags of the Confederacy, to storm our Capitol & overturn the results of an election? https://t.co/kYppU4lkVc — PolitiTweet.org
