The House passed the bipartisan Hong Kong Human Right and Democracy Act last month and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee passed the bipartisan Senate version two months ago. Why won't Senator McConnell act to demonstrate U.S. values and help Hong Kong stand up to China? — PolitiTweet.org

Today I joined @RepChuyGarcia and @MyForefront in Riverside for a community briefing on #Census2020. Illinois’ share of federal funding and Congressional representation are determined by the Census – it’s essential that we have a fair and full count. https://t.co/FM1mykeWTu — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. will stand alone as the only nation in the world to abandon the Paris Climate Agreement. Everyone else accepts the proven science behind climate change—why can't this Administration? Yet again, President Trump has diminished American leadership on the world stage. — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. will withdraw from Paris climate agreement, Trump administration says on first day it can give official notice https://t.co/RgeoqW7kC5

This is a dangerous decision by the Trump EPA that will further pollute our drinking water and threaten public health. The current regulations for coal ash disposal are already insufficient — rolling them back further is only going to do additional harm to our environment. — PolitiTweet.org

During Lung Cancer Awareness Month, I remember my father who passed from lung cancer when he was only 53. He smoked two packs of Camels every day. I’ve made it my mission in Congress to stand up to Big Tobacco & all the pain they’ve caused. I will always keep fighting. #LCAM https://t.co/dtLBfq9aoC — PolitiTweet.org

With my colleagues, @SenBlumenthal & @SenSherrodBrown, I am calling on @BetsyDeVosED to provide full transparency so that we get to the bottom of the accreditation misrepresentation at Dream Center Education Holdings. https://t.co/LDZjqfC2ec — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
While @EdLaborCmte investigates reports that the @usedgov made $10.7 million in improper taxpayer-funding payments to Dream Center Education Holdings, @BetsyDeVosEd continues to impede Congress from getting the full picture of what happened. — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of making it easier for corporations to avoid paying their fair share in taxes, we should make the federal tax code help working families in this country. This is a bad decision that will only further enable corporate greed at the expense of American taxpayers. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to have worked with @SenDuckworth & @RepCheri to deliver $177M in funding for the Amtrak route between Chicago and Moline through December 2024. After years of unnecessary delay, we’re working hard to make Amtrak to the Quad Cities a reality. — PolitiTweet.org

Tragically, the Chicago Police Department has suffered 8 officer suicides since July 2018. We need data to help inform our policy solutions to this crisis, and this legislation will help to do just that. https://t.co/jAn0981D8o — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I’m proud to cosponsor the Law Enforcement Suicide Data Collection Act with @SenCortezMasto, @ChrisCoons, @RoyBlunt, @ChuckGrassley, and @HawleyMO. This bipartisan bill will help track law enforcement suicides in the hopes that they can be prevented. — PolitiTweet.org

One of my first internships was for Sen. Paul Douglas. As a student from East St. Louis, going to work in the office of a U.S. Senator was one of the most exciting things I had ever done.

This morning I met with business leaders @ISTPLifeScience in Skokie who use research to launch new products. We must invest in scientific, biomedical, and agriculture research so the U.S. remains a world leader in development and discovery. https://t.co/8zz3IQvPVm — PolitiTweet.org

That's why @SenJohnKennedy & I passed an amendment yesterday & wrote to the DEA today to reiterate that it must use its authority as a gatekeeper to protect public health from excessive opioid production. https://t.co/ST04WHmeiB — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I fear that @DEAHQ is reverting back to the short-sighted approach that led to the opioid crisis by continuing to allow Big Pharma to flood the market with billions of painkillers at volumes far greater than medical need. — PolitiTweet.org

Remember when President Trump promised to address gun violence in August? Whatever happened to that? The President should spend his time working on solutions, not trashing Chicago. https://t.co/v09mqAY9Lr — PolitiTweet.org

The DEA must be the gatekeeper for preventing opioid abuse. Our amendment is designed to help @DEAHQ rein in Big Pharma's insatiable, deadly demand to flood the market with these addictive painkillers. You can read more about the amendment here:https://t.co/zNIi8yr2TU — PolitiTweet.org

Last year, Congress passed my Opioid Quota Reform Act w/ Sen Kennedy to ensure DEA sets sensible opioid production levels & doesn’t let Big Pharma to flood the country with Rx painkillers. @SenJohnKennedy & I secured an amendment to ensure @DEAHQ will actually use this authority. — PolitiTweet.org
