We must ensure that these essential workers are not forced to stop working when the need for their services has never been greater. As our nation continues to grapple with #COVID19, Pres. Trump must extend work authorizations for #DACA & #TPS holders & other impacted immigrants. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
One in six health care & social service workers are immigrants. Where would we be in this pandemic without them? — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
#COVID19 should be a wake-up call for Congress - we must be prepared to function during national crises, even if we cannot meet in person. To do that, Congress must be prepared to vote remotely. My op-ed in the @NYTimes w/@SenRobPortman & Jason Matheny: — PolitiTweet.org

We made a promise to #Dreamers 8 years ago: register with #DACA, & we won’t use your personal info to deport you or your family. Sadly, Trump Admin. seems to be so committed to deporting these young immigrants that it has no intention of keeping that promise — PolitiTweet.org

In an unprecedented global crisis, Americans shouldn't have to risk their health to vote. Good to talk with @LWVIL about expanding access to the ballot box through vote-by-mail and early voting, & providing federal resources to state & local gov'ts to get the job done. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
#COVID19 is straining the hospitals & heroic health workers in every corner of IL. On a call w more than 30 Southern IL hospital CEOs, @SenDuckworth, @RepBost & @RepShimkus, we discussed testing, PPE & funding challenges. I will keep working to provide support to these hospitals. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Betsy DeVos is wrongly excluding #DACA recipients from the emergency aid provided for students in the CARES Act. This aid should be administered as Congress intended – to help ALL students whose lives have been upended by this pandemic. #HomeIsHere https://t.co/keKT3W2bmj — PolitiTweet.org

I'm leading a group of 60 Senate & House Dems in filing an amicus brief with the 7th Circuit in support of the City of Evanston & the U.S. Conference of Mayors in their case against DOJ. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
For years, the Department of Justice has tried to withhold Byrne-JAG violence prevention funds from local communities unless the communities adopt the Administration’s preferred immigration policies. The law is clear that DOJ does not have the authority to do this. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Nice to see businesses - like Granite City’s Burgers STL - give back to their community & support their local health care workers. Thanks to all those who are helping others get through this pandemic. https://t.co/GMNhodihhx — PolitiTweet.org

Mr. President, #COVID19 is in every state. It is affecting us all, red & blue states alike. Forcing states & municipalities into bankruptcy in the midst of this crisis would mean dire consequences for our schools, teachers, cops, EMTs, firefighters, retirees, & nation’s economy. — PolitiTweet.org

We must ensure that minority-owned & underbanked businesses have the support they need to carry through this time of economic uncertainty. I will continue fighting for improvements to PPP, including transparency & accountability, so that vulnerable businesses are not left behind. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Spoke today with leaders of Illinois Community Development Financial Institutions about how best to reach minority-owned & underserved businesses affected by the #COVID19 pandemic, & the barriers that these businesses are facing in accessing the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why @SenDuckworth, @RepCheri, and I called on the federal Bureau of Prisons to stop transferring inmates from facilities with #COVID19 outbreaks until they are able to test inmates prior to transfer. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The U.S. has more prisoners, by far, than any other country in the world. And prisons - where social distancing is impossible - are especially vulnerable to this pandemic. It’s a recipe for disaster. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ChuckGrassley & I urge @JusticeOIG to assess if the BOP is taking adequate steps to protect the health of staff & inmates, including properly implementing its authority under the #FirstStepAct to transfer at-risk inmates to home confinement. Read more: https://t.co/5tPucHyAdq — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
During a pandemic, we must protect the health & safety of every individual, including those living & working in the tight quarters of prisons. I have serious concerns that BOP is not taking enough preventative measures to adequately protect BOP staff & inmates from #COVID19. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Sorry, Dr. Birx. We saw the look on your face. What the President said was not a joke, a question, sarcasm, or as you said on FOX, the way he thinks out loud. It was a dangerous idea which has been roundly condemned by every responsible health expert. — PolitiTweet.org
HuffPost @HuffPost
But Birx also defended Trump, saying in a Fox News clip that he was "digesting" new information out loud. https://t.co/kuRniyIGlW
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This is a single day record for IL. As we continue to ramp up our testing capabilities, the # of those with confirmed #COVID19 will likely increase - but if we continue social distancing & #StayHome, we'll beat this virus and finally start getting back to normal. #AllInIllinois — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why I’m introducing the Health Heroes 2020 Act w/@janschakowsky. This bill is a tribute to the inspiring work of our health workforce & a commitment to our future - expanding the NHSC & Nurse Corps programs to bring 300,000 clinicians to our most underserved communities. — PolitiTweet.org

We celebrated our 50th #EarthDay earlier this week & we'll celebrate the 50th anniversary of the #CleanAirAct later this year. #COVID19 has shown just how dangerous air pollution can be-there's never been a better time to strengthen clean air protections & prepare for our future. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The @LungAssociation’s 2020 #StateOfTheAir report found that nearly half of Americans are exposed to unhealthy levels of air pollution – making them more vulnerable to diseases like #COVID19. This pollution is especially dangerous for our nation’s most vulnerable communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Where would America be in this crisis without millions of immigrants and first generation Americans who are essential workers on the frontlines of this pandemic? President Trump should stop attacking immigrants and spend his valuable time attacking this virus. — PolitiTweet.org
