Two months ago I wrote to the President to say this money should be used as Congress intended. Our first priority should be ending the shortage of PPE to protect health care workers & other Americans on the front lines. The President has other priorities. https://t.co/e0NPkL9OIp — PolitiTweet.org

If Senator McConnell goes forward with his plan to jam through a SCOTUS nominee this year, the Affordable Care Act is doomed. This is about more than political bragging rights. It's about protections for people with pre-existing conditions & health care coverage for millions. https://t.co/xdHMr5BS7m — PolitiTweet.org

I'm glad the House has passed my bill with @SenDanSullivan to protect the fundamental right to due process by ensuring anyone accused of a federal crime has all evidence that could show their innocence. I look forward to the Due Process Protections Act being signed into law. — PolitiTweet.org

It didn’t have to be this bad. President Trump knew how deadly this virus was & chose to mislead to the American people. His failure in leadership during this moment of crisis has been astounding. — PolitiTweet.org

Either the American people do get an election year voice regarding the future of the Supreme Court, or they don’t. In 2016, Senator McConnell said they do. Now he says they don’t. It’s a flip-flop, plain & simple. https://t.co/4hziVsy1qB — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017, John McCain stepped up to save the Affordable Care Act. It was an act of courage. Which Republican Senators will demonstrate that kind of courage now? We only need four. https://t.co/RENTr5JfOQ — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court was created by the founders of our nation to be the arbiter of equal justice under the law, not a tool for one party's political agenda. The Senate should honor Justice Ginsburg’s fervent last wish by not filling this vacancy before inauguration. https://t.co/e0abSpmHIi — PolitiTweet.org

But it’s not only funding at risk – it is equal distribution of power. Illinois is at risk of losing seats in Congress during an undercount, which would mean less representation for our State. — PolitiTweet.org

Many of my Republican colleagues have been cowed by Pres. Trump & are now being humiliated by Sen McConnell, who wants them to go back on everything they said 4 years ago. The Republicans' plan to rush a Supreme Court nominee is only going to add to the division in our country. https://t.co/d9kgFiHjZ6 — PolitiTweet.org

6 million Americans have tested positive for #COVID19 & now have a pre-existing condition. Under the ACA, insurance companies cannot discriminate against them. But Republicans are asking the Court to take those protections away. Millions would lose their health care coverage. — PolitiTweet.org

The American people need to understand that the battle over the Supreme Court comes down to decisions that will impact us all. Republicans have a case before the Court in November that would tear down the ACA & with it protections for pre-existing conditions. https://t.co/BUIJRVemgh — PolitiTweet.org

Four years ago Senator McConnell demanded that Supreme Court vacancies go unfilled during a presidential election year. Now he’s completely reversed himself because it’s to his political advantage.

Remember Senator McConnell’s demand that SCOTUS vacancies go unfilled during a presidential election year, which was also Justice Ginsburg’s dying wish. McConnell pleaded with us to let the voters have the last word. Every Senator should be asked to commit to the McConnell Rule. — PolitiTweet.org
