The Stonewall Uprising launched the fight for equal rights for LGBTQ Americans. I’m proud to introduce a resolution with @SenDuckworth @SenatorBaldwin @SenSchumer & @Gillibrandny to recognize & honor the 50th anniversary of this historic and important moment. #Stonewall50 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Congress must wake up and do more to curb these acts of violence. Proud to introduce the Khalid Jabara-Heather Heyer NO HATE Act with @SenBlumenthal @maziehirono @MarkWarner @timkaine and @SenGillibrand to better respond to these hate crimes & work with the affected communities. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The surge in hate crimes & terrorism driven by white supremacists across the country is simply unacceptable. No American should face discrimination or fear for their life because of their race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any reason whatsoever. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Senate must do its job and pass the bipartisan American Dream and Promise Act to give these young people the opportunity they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
President Obama created #DACA to give 790k young people a chance to be a part of America’s future. President Trump tried to end it as part of his failed “get tough” strategy. Now the Supreme Court has agreed to President Trump’s request to step in. — PolitiTweet.org

There he goes again – siding with foreign dictators as they continue to meddle in our democracy and interfere in our elections. When will President Trump and Leader McConnell realize what’s at stake? This isn’t a joke. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to be part of the coalition that came together to secure a funding extension for the proposed passenger rail between Chicago and Moline. I look forward to continue working w/ my colleagues at the federal, state, & local levels to finish this project. https://t.co/0KVAQAk7JQ — PolitiTweet.org

Fan safety should come first for @MLB. Today, @SenDuckworth and I sent a letter to Commissioner Manfred urging him to extend protective netting to the left and right field corners at all 30 major league ballparks – it’s time to make this a priority. — PolitiTweet.org

Met today with the Yemeni Ambassador to the U.S., Ahmed Awad Bin Mubarak. The situation is Yemen in now characterized by the UN as the world’s worst man-made humanitarian disaster – it’s imperative that all sides involved come to the table and find a way towards peace. https://t.co/Wpw1dY1MxV — PolitiTweet.org

In light of this decision, the Administration should immediately move forward to finalize and print the census questionnaire without a citizenship question. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
It is clearly the duty of the government to have a count of all people, and I’m glad that this underhanded effort to suppress the democratic process has been thwarted for now. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Through both Article I, Section 2 and the 14th Amendment, the Constitution explicitly requires the federal government to conduct a census that counts the “whole number of persons in each State.” — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Recent revelations make it clear that the individuals who worked to add a citizenship question to the census were motivated by partisan politics. Today, the Supreme Court recognized that the Trump Administration’s rationale for adding this question “seems to have been contrived.” — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday @SenDuckworth, @RepCheri, @RepUnderwood and I met with Acting FEMA Administrator Peter Gaynor to discuss ways we can improve the state application process for flood mitigation assistance. I look forward to working together to ensure IL gets much-needed federal funding — PolitiTweet.org

In threatening to sanction Iran’s primary interlocutor with the West, Foreign Minister Zarif, Pres. Trump is showing he’s not serious about dialogue with Iran as an alternative to war. Bumbling policies by Tweet are not measures of international leadership. https://t.co/HqZEM9ENMj — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Any allegation of sexual assault should be taken seriously. Period. The President’s comments about the allegations brought against him by E. Jean Carroll are absolutely unacceptable, dehumanizing, and misogynistic. https://t.co/vZDyhP8eCC — PolitiTweet.org

We have a responsibility in Congress, Democrats and Republicans, to deal with the crisis that has been created by this Administration. — PolitiTweet.org

Let me state the obvious - President Trump’s immigration and border security policies are failing in the most cruel and inhumane ways. When I saw the devastating photo of Óscar Alberto Martínez Ramírez and his 23-month-old daughter, Valeria, my heart broke. https://t.co/wZzMSaLunL — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We discussed next steps in the implementation of the First Step Act, the overuse of solitary confinement, and the need to continue our efforts to reform and improve our criminal justice systems in both Illinois and the nation as a whole. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Today I met with Rob Jeffreys, the new Director of the Illinois Department of Corrections, and John Wetzel, the President of the @ASCALeadership. Secretary Wetzel is also serving on the First Step Act Independent Review Committee. — PolitiTweet.org

On June 26, 2015, marriage equality in the United States became the law of the land. As we celebrate the fourth anniversary of the Obergefell decision, we must remember that the fight for LGBTQ rights and equality is not over. #LoveIsLove #PrideMonth https://t.co/dd6KrGFzVK — PolitiTweet.org

Had the chance to meet with @IllinoisFFA students in Washington today to discuss issues facing young farmers in Illinois and across the United States. The future of farming is in good hands with these hardworking young men and women. — PolitiTweet.org

Sending my condolences to the family and friends of Fulton County Sheriff's Deputy Troy Chisum, who was killed yesterday in the line of duty. https://t.co/ig7mnW1hAZ — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed meeting with officials from Springfield & Sangamon County yesterday. Springfield is my hometown, so it’s always great to welcome Mayor Langfelder & his team to Washington to discuss how I can help local projects – like returning Springfield’s 183rd Wing to flying status. https://t.co/iACd35QkKW — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Great discussion about the importance of afterschool STEM programs with Illinois students who participate on their local FIRST Robotics Teams – the future is bright for these young Illinoisans. https://t.co/5Mj110zk3i — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The @EPA shouldn’t stand in the way of trade. Using outdated calculations for greenhouse gas emissions from ethanol is hurting American farmers. Today, I sent a letter with @ChuckGrassley and others urging them to update their calculations and help our farmers compete. https://t.co/YDaPOjaIJz — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Last night, the House of Representatives passed legislation to ensure that the migrants who come to our border are treated humanely. Now the Senate has a responsibility to address the humanitarian crisis that President Trump has created. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
And now we hear horrific stories of children being denied soap and toothbrushes and little 11-year-old girls being asked to care for toddlers. Despite President Trump’s tough talk, our southern border today is much less secure than when he took office. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
For the last 2.5 years, the Trump Admin has shown unprecedented cruelty to immigrants – especially children – and has wildly swung from one immigration scandal to the next: Muslim travel ban, repeal of DACA, termination of TPS, & disastrous separation of thousands of families. — PolitiTweet.org
