In February, my Senate colleagues & I sounded the alarm on the Trump Admin's ongoing campaign to erode the independence of our immigration courts. I'm calling for a @USGAO investigation into the mismanagement of the Executive Office for Immigration Review. https://t.co/OcW8XIE8K6 — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of undermining the integrity of the dedicated public servants at the FDA, the President should be focused on supporting our federal agencies as they work to develop a safe & effective COVID-19 vaccine. This nonsense about the “deep state” will do far more harm than good. — PolitiTweet.org

When I heard that children’s hospitals like @LurieChildrens were getting shut out of #COVID19 funding, I reached out to @SecAzar to ask him to reconsider. Pleased that my appeal was heard & Lurie received $23M last week. Great speaking to Dr. Shanley today about this new funding. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017 & 2018, Medicare spent $1.4B on cancer drugs that were thrown away. Why? Because Big Pharma produced over-sized vials with a higher dose than is needed, leaving seniors & taxpayers to foot the bill on these discarded medications. https://t.co/ky5ivqqHMX — PolitiTweet.org

On our call with USPS and @illinoissbe, USPS said that IL voters planning to vote by mail should request a mail-in ballot no later than Oct 19 and return their ballots no later than Oct 27. Illinoisans must be able to vote safely w/ confidence that their ballots will be counted. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm joining @SenDuckworth & my @SenateDems colleagues to call on @USPS to reconsider any new policies that could result in delayed mail delivery to our nation's 1.3 million servicemembers and their families. You can read our letter here: https://t.co/7XN3yiENip — PolitiTweet.org

American servicemembers rely on @USPS for the delivery of medications, bills, letters from home, and so much more—including ballots. Any attempt to make absentee voting more difficult amounts to disenfranchising the very Americans serving & sacrificing on the frontlines. — PolitiTweet.org
