MORNING READ: “America’s First City,” the Cahokia Mounds are well on their way to becoming a national park. Proud to have this Southern IL historic site nationally recognized. https://t.co/cFnFgGVb0q — PolitiTweet.org

Today I met with Under Secretary of the Army, Ryan McCarthy, to discuss Rock Island Arsenal, the budget crisis, the southwest border, and Army recruiting goals. https://t.co/55nvio18N9 — PolitiTweet.org

In 2016 alone, Big Pharma produced 14 billion opioid doses - enough for every American adult to have a 3-week supply of painkillers. We must hold Big Pharma accountable for the obscene greed & excess production that fueled this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
My #PharmaFleece Award this month goes to Big Pharma companies like @PurduePharma for their role in igniting the opioid crisis. These companies flooded the nation with billions of deadly painkillers, falsely claiming they were less addictive & harmful than they knew them to be. https://t.co/lv8IQzIjmT — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed meeting with @Harvard President Larry Bacow today to discuss higher education & immigration – particularly the #DACA program. The son of refugees, Pres. Bacow is a proponent of DACA and understands the importance of compassion in crafting immigration policy. https://t.co/YRckgRxG1J — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday marked the passing of a giant in American law. Justice John Paul Stevens served on the Supreme Court for nearly 35 years, bringing along his midwestern blend of brilliance, courtesy, & humility. His legacy is enormous.https://t.co/G9He1lYXiA — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, I joined thirteen Senate Democrats to call for transparency from @JudicialNetwork about their dark money donors. I hope my Republican colleagues will agree that it’s time to shine a light on this shadowy group. https://t.co/St7ez0J93T — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Judicial Crisis Network is a dark-money front organization that spends millions on ads and sees themselves as the Republican Party’s gatekeeper for appellate court nominees. Who is writing their checks? Who are their donors? They won’t say. https://t.co/VYpB3c6GNd — PolitiTweet.org

Infant and maternal mortality rates in the U.S. – especially among women and babies of color – are a national tragedy. That’s why I introduced the MOMMA Act w/ @RepRobinKelly to reduce racial disparities in health outcomes and help save the lives of new moms and babies. #BumpDay https://t.co/dPkqkAMSnT — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
In the real world, @HouseDemocrats have passed bills to: Protect pre-existing conditions Ensure paycheck fairness Require universal background checks Combat climate change And much more But under Sen. McConnell, the GOP has turned the Senate into a legislative graveyard. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This is not an example of due diligence but rather unnecessary & embarrassing delay. Scheduling this & other tax treaties for floor votes was also unwarranted and I’m afraid it is part of Sen. McConnell’s attempt to divert the Senate from matters of significance to Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
It reflects my frustration with a process that has the Senate considering this matter 10 years after it was signed and nearly 9 years after then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton transmitted it to the United States Senate for action. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Just now on the Senate floor, I voted against the Tax Treaty with Luxembourg, but it was not a reflection on the merits of the proposed protocol. — PolitiTweet.org

For certain patients, Medicare covers life-saving kidney transplants but cuts off coverage for vital anti-rejection drugs after 36 months. This makes no sense. @SenBillCassidy and I will soon be introducing a bill to fix this. https://t.co/UcpFaPbnZf — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
John Paul Stevens described the standard for a judge as “the impartial guardian of the rule of law.” With his service on the Court, he met that standard throughout his life. I was honored to know him & admire his amiable yet rock solid way of addressing the issues of our time. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Democrats stand ready to work on smart, effective, and humane border security policies, but we need our Republican colleagues to condemn President Trump’s cruel campaign against families and children and to work with us on bipartisan basis. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Trump Admin’s new rule blocking asylum claims at our southern border will “endanger vulnerable people in need of international protection from violence or persecution,” including children and families, according to @Refugees. America is better than this. https://t.co/u2FjrDfMp6 — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican tax bill gutted state and local tax (SALT) deductions, which has hit Illinois hard. I’m proud to join @SenateDems to introduce a resolution to nullify this new rule and provide families across the country with the relief they desperately need. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Pres. Trump can’t have it both ways. He can’t warn Americans that Venezuela is too dangerous to visit, only to turn around and tell Venezuelans in the US they have to return. It’s time for Congress to overrule this outrageous & inconsistent policy and designate Venezuela for TPS. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We just received a heartless response from @USCIS Acting Director Ken Cuccinelli – the Trump Admin refuses to grant TPS to protect innocent Venezuelan civilians. Instead, the Administration will simply continue to “monitor the situation” there. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
In March, @SenatorMenendez and I led a bipartisan group of 24 Senators urging the Trump Admin to designate Venezuela for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) so that Venezuelans in the U.S. are not forced to return to their country at this dangerous time. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Instead of working to lower prescription drug prices or protect Americans with pre-existing conditions, Republicans are working to take away a woman’s right to choose. We must stand up to this President and #ProtectX. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Why is the Republican-controlled Senate prioritizing its time this week on a tax treaty with Luxembourg? Instead, Americans want real action to lower prescription drug prices, and Democrats stand ready to address this issue. Leader McConnell needs to get his priorities straight. https://t.co/688uJkq4m6 — PolitiTweet.org

The Republican Party was once the party of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan, but sadly no longer. Republican reactions to the President’s racist and reprehensible recent statements prove they’re surrendering their soul to Donald Trump. — PolitiTweet.org
