Betsy DeVos is doing everything in her power to gut essential protections for student borrowers & taxpayers. Her new borrower defense rule would make it almost impossible for these students to get the relief that they are entitled to under federal law. — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 250 days since the House passed the Protecting Americans with Preexisting Conditions Act, another bipartisan health care bill that is languishing in Leader McConnell’s legislative graveyard. What is Senator McConnell waiting for? #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Despite tough weather and markets, Illinois once again led the nation in soybean production in 2019. It’s a testament to the faith and perseverance of Illinois farmers and 100+ years of soybean production in our great state. — PolitiTweet.org

The President is diverting billions of dollars in military funds towards his ineffective wall just days after sending thousands of troops to the Middle East for a potential conflict with Iran. The White House ought to put troops ahead of campaign ads. https://t.co/bsDnnFu3dZ — PolitiTweet.org

Great to see @Rotary, @CDCgov, @UNICEF, and others help Nigeria and the whole African continent work towards soon becoming polio free. https://t.co/yGyHtxwapH — PolitiTweet.org

We must be more caring and considerate than that. While I believe that we should be incentivizing people to move towards jobs, training, & employment, we should not be withholding their food to do so. I urge the Administration to rethink this harmful SNAP policy. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
SNAP serves rural America just as much as urban America – and taking food off the table won’t help anyone get a job. With this “get tough” new rule set to take effect soon, many in Illinois will face new paperwork hurdles as they struggle to make ends meet. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
For many families in Illinois & across the U.S., SNAP is an all-important lifeline that helps puts food on the table. But under the Trump Administration’s new requirements, hundreds of thousands of Americans could lose benefits. That is unacceptable. https://t.co/Z56SyUxNzi — PolitiTweet.org

Pres. Trump held a Rose Garden party when the House GOP voted to repeal the ACA & its protections for people with pre-existing conditions. He supported a failed Senate bill & ongoing lawsuit to do the same. Actions speak louder than words. https://t.co/9aP1LfAlcu — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This week, the House has the chance to put #StudentsFirst by passing @RepSusieLee’s resolution & rejecting Betsy DeVos’ rewritten borrower defense rule. I hope they do. Defrauded students are entitled to this relief under federal law. We can’t let Betsy DeVos take that away. — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight, @ehs_orangerush special ed. teacher Susan Converse will be honored at the College Football Playoff Championship as @ISBEnews Teacher of the Year. Congratulations Susan on your well-deserved recognition & thanks for 23 years of serving students. https://t.co/RBfT3FStha — PolitiTweet.org

If Pres. Trump succeeds in overturning the ACA, millions of children w/pre-existing conditions could lose their health insurance. If the President was serious about protecting Americans w/pre-existing conditions, he wouldn’t be backing a case to eliminate the ACA. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday I joined @ILAFLCIO and @ILFarmBureau at @BRANDT_co in Springfield to discuss the USMCA trade agreement. Important changes make it better for Illinois farmers, manufacturers, & workers while strengthening labor protections and fair treatment of U.S. products. https://t.co/u0FLfzIVKh — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why next week I, with @RepSchneider, am reintroducing the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, which would address the threat of violent white supremacists and other domestic terrorists. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Proud to stand by leaders from the Jewish, Muslim, African-American, Latino, Sikh, and LGBTQ+ communities at @loop_chicago in the fight to combat violent domestic extremism. The threat of hate crimes and domestic terrorism is not new, but has increased sharply in recent years. https://t.co/METBCcWmiH — PolitiTweet.org

As Honduras struggles with challenging levels of criminal impunity, U.S. support can make a difference. Today @SenatorMenendez, @marcorubio, @SenLeahy, @timkaine, and I wrote the Trump Admin. to express our support for an extension of the anti-corruption efforts of MACCIH. https://t.co/cO0NIXSSxk — PolitiTweet.org

I’m deeply concerned by reports that ArcelorMittal doctored tests & lied to state regulators after a toxic spill in the Little Calumet River. Read my letter to the editor in today's @chicagotribune on this alarming possible cover-up here: https://t.co/NGpooDTmTC — PolitiTweet.org

Only in America. Big Pharma is suing to avoid having to tell patients the price of their drugs in TV ads. The result of pharma flooding the air with ads? Medicare & Medicaid paid $34 billion in taxpayer dollars on the top 20 advertised drugs in 2018. https://t.co/R5W25jyemo — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why @SenSherrodBrown and I introduced the Youth Tobacco Act of 2020. Our bill will get kid-friendly e-cig flavors off the market, stop tobacco companies from targeting kids with their ads, and curb the rise in the use of tobacco & e-cig products among our children. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Our nation is in the midst of a vaping epidemic that has now hooked five million kids—an increase of 135 percent over the past two years of the Trump Administration. We must not allow Big Vape and Big Tobacco to continue addicting an entire generation of kids to nicotine. — PolitiTweet.org

Leon Lederman was a giant in his field and won a Nobel prize for his efforts. It's devastating that he had to auction off his gold medal to cover medical bills. My prayers are with his friends and family. https://t.co/rKFIjAFqcd — PolitiTweet.org

Any legitimate trial has witnesses, documents, and evidence. What Senator McConnell has been describing, to do away with those things entirely, looks more like a cover-up. Will four Republican Senators stand up for a fair trial? https://t.co/vEyH29sBCp — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see the House pass a War Powers Resolution today with bipartisan support to keep Pres. Trump from starting a war all on his own. The Senate must do the same & pass my resolution with @timkaine. Congress alone has the Constitutional power to decide whether to declare war. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m concerned by reports that ArcelorMittal has been polluting the Lake Michigan Watershed & subsequently trying to cover it up. Today I had a call with @EPA Region 5 to ensure that ArcelorMittal will be held accountable for this clear violation of federal law. — PolitiTweet.org
