President Trump must not be allowed to divert much-needed military construction funds toward building his ineffective border wall. @SenatorLeahy, @SenJackReed, @SenBrianSchatz, and I are urging Defense Sec. Esper to oppose this action. You can read our letter here: https://t.co/iw2POVh6eP — PolitiTweet.org

Women veterans have made amazing contributions to our armed forces that have gone unheralded for far too long. Proud to support the 49,000+ women veterans who call Illinois home and initiatives that recognize them like the “I Am Not Invisible” campaign. https://t.co/XqdCRED4vF — PolitiTweet.org

It was great see Marian Wright Edelman, founder of @ChildDefender, this morning at @chicagosmayor annual Interfaith Breakfast to celebrate the life of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. https://t.co/kqGBTiRDPn — PolitiTweet.org

Rural communities too often struggle to find quality, affordable health care. If Pres. Trump & the GOP succeed in their lawsuit to undo the ACA, rural hospitals will be harmed & Americans w/pre-existing conditions in rural communities will lose their health care. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot keep ignoring the deadly menace in our own backyard. Congress must act against white supremacist violence & pass my Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act of 2020. https://t.co/ZjE2xdTOj6 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The House put #StudentsFirst today by passing this resolution & rejecting Besty DeVos’ new borrower defense rule. The Senate must do the same. I’m proud to stand w/defrauded student borrowers & vets over Betsy DeVos & #4profit colleges. I urge my Senate colleagues to join me. — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate is in the midst of an historic moment. We must remember that not only is America watching, but that history will hold us accountable. For the sake of the Senate, we must conduct a full & fair trial. We must abide by our sworn oaths to provide impartial justice. https://t.co/OpK7zIBDRW — PolitiTweet.org

The USMCA will support Illinois’ economy, provide more certainty to agriculture, & improve trade relationships with Canada & Mexico, our top trading partners. Glad the Senate voted today to pass this agreement on a bipartisan basis, with the support of business, labor, & farmers. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
You can have a cover-up without witnesses, but you cannot have a trial. Will four Republican Senators have the courage to rise above partisanship & vote for a full and fair trial? https://t.co/e6KS0gfeOx — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
President Trump promised to put American workers first, but his Administration has dramatically increased the number of guest worker visas. This hurts American & immigrant workers. Read my bipartisan letter warning the Administration not to repeat this mistake again this year: https://t.co/immlryUg3O — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This is good news for 500 Illinois ITT Tech borrowers whose loans were discharged as part of a settlement with the @KwameRaoul in 2019. Proud to have worked with @RonWyden and @PattyMurray to help secure this protection for these and future borrowers. https://t.co/cDPRpjeTnt — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The IRS just announced that students receiving federal closed school and borrower defense discharges, or those resulting from settlements will no longer have to worry about it being taxed as income. https://t.co/0ZRIRssG1n — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The American people want, and deserve, a full and fair trial in the Senate. That should include relevant witnesses, documents, & evidence. Four Republican Senators can make that happen. This is one of our most important constitutional responsibilities. We must treat it as such. https://t.co/SjymkmCrTn — PolitiTweet.org

.@SenDuckworth & I wrote to Army Secretary McCarthy about our concerns & called for a comprehensive review of the 416th's handling of sexual assault claims. Sexual assault prevention and response policies exist for a reason; the Army must make sure they are fully implemented. https://t.co/4OJMqDYqWb — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The 416th Theater Engineer Command has a responsibility to serve & protect the soldiers under its leadership. That includes taking allegations of sexual assault seriously. Reports that 416th leaders mishandled these allegations are extremely troubling. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Tomorrow, the House will have a chance to undo Betsy DeVos’ disastrous new borrower defense rule, to stand up for defrauded student borrowers & veterans. Put #StudentsFirst. Vote to undo the mess created by Sec. DeVos. Vote to overturn her rewritten borrower defense rule. https://t.co/inV73If2Nr — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
If the ACA is repealed—as Pres. Trump wants—the Medicare Rx drug “donut hole” would be reopened & seniors would see their costs increase immediately. Insurance companies would also once again be able to deny coverage of Rx drugs to Americans w/private insurance. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet with Brian Wallach today. After being diagnosed with #ALS at age 37, he founded @iamalsorg to help change the world. He’s doing just that, and I’m proud to call him a friend. https://t.co/gei1HlmhDt — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
President Trump must not be allowed to divert money from critical military construction projects to build his ineffective border wall. My statement with @SenSchumer, @SenatorLeahy, @SenJackReed, and @SenatorTomUdall on reversing the President’s proposed plan: https://t.co/q1JH0KXHjP — PolitiTweet.org

While China must be accountable for unfair trade practices, the President’s trade war has seriously hurt farmers. In our meeting today, I spoke w/U.S. Amb. to China Brandstad about recommitting to our farmers & providing the certainty they need to rebound from a difficult 2019. https://t.co/viIrDcS0Jm — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
And last week I wrote, yet again, to AG Barr & @FBI Dir. Wray calling on them to take the initiative in leading a coordinated effort by federal, state, & local law enforcement to disrupt & prevent these violent domestic terrorism & hate crime incidents before they take place. https://t.co/jciljbOCb6 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I reintroduced the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act w/ @RepSchneider today to ensure that the federal government steps up to address these threats. We must ensure that more Americans are not violently attacked because of who they are or what they believe. https://t.co/yD6wETirbo — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Far too many communities have been victimized by domestic terrorism in recent years. For too long, we've failed to take action to combat this deadly menace in our own backyard. We cannot afford to wait any longer. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the #ACA, being a woman is no longer considered a pre-existing condition, insurers can't charge women higher premiums than men, & health plans must cover maternity/newborn care, mammograms, and contraceptive care. We can't let Pres. Trump take that away. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Just this morning, 20 State attorneys general announced their support for overturning the DeVos rule, saying: “if this rule goes into effect, the result will be disastrous for students while providing a windfall to abusive schools.” I couldn’t agree more. https://t.co/YOMCDINd8r — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Congress must put #StudentsFirst & reject Sec. DeVos’ rewritten borrower defense rule. The House will vote this week to do just that. Soon, I will bring a similar resolution to the Senate floor. Senators will have a choice—stand with DeVos or with defrauded borrowers & taxpayers. — PolitiTweet.org
