Ten years ago the Tobacco Control Act was signed into law. Despite enormous progress on reducing cigarette use nationwide, FDA’s lack of action on e-cigarettes and kid-friendly flavors has resulted in the largest single year increase in tobacco use. — PolitiTweet.org

As extreme weather beats up on us and extreme voices call for more confrontation with Iran, we are paying the price for these short sighted decisions. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The two worst foreign policy decisions of the Trump Presidency: Becoming the only nation on earth to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord and walking away from the international agreement to ban the production of nuclear weapons in Iran. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Take a deep breath Mr. President. Those who are beating the drums of war with Iran ignore the spiraling escalation that can follow. Our 17 year wars in the Middle East tell us it’s a whole lot easier to get in a war than it is to get out. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump Admin is itching for a war with Iran, with Bolton and Pompeo leading the charge. We need to stop provoking Iran and confront their bad conduct with a measured, proportional, diplomatic response. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Count me as NO. As one of 23 Senators who voted against the invasion of Iraq - a war which is now in its 17th year with heavy costs in American lives and taxpayers dollars - count me as a no on the military confrontation with Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

They silence critics and rights activists and turn a blind eye to the export of Wahabbi extremism. All of this makes it increasingly difficult to accept Saudi Arabia as a trusted ally of the United States. President Trump should immediately cease all arms sales with Saudi Arabia. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Saudi-led war in Yemen has been a humanitarian disaster – leading to an estimated 85,000 children having already died of malnutrition. And the Saudi government and royal family continue to deny any involvement in Mr. Khashoggi’s brutal disappearance and murder. — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t continue to allow Russia and its Ukrainian separatist proxies to murder with impunity. We must support the International Investigators and our Dutch allies in their effort to hold those responsible for this crime accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

11,400 people are estimated to have been killed by gun violence in the time since the House passed universal background checks. Sen. McConnell: bring this bill to the floor for a vote. Every day that the Senate does nothing, more and more preventable shoootings happen. https://t.co/sbUy3X5Mxu — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t allow the Trump Administration to continue turning America’s open arms into cold shoulders. #WorldRefugeeDay is a reminder of our values as a nation of immigrants and our proud tradition of welcoming refugees into our communities. https://t.co/OBc0UuUYWl — PolitiTweet.org

I spoke to Interim President Guaido yesterday, and he continues to work for his country’s freedom from the oppressive Maduro regime. Though President Trump may seem ready to throw in the towel, I stand committed to aiding the people of Venezuela. https://t.co/KGwI2nmrRH — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The people of Venezuela deserve better than this. We can’t allow this President’s short attention span to stop us from delivering on our promise to help the Venezuelan people rebuild their country. Boredom or fomenting a new crisis elsewhere is no excuse for inaction. — PolitiTweet.org

Always a pleasure to welcome my House colleagues to the Senate for our Illinois delegation luncheons. Discussing the issues in their districts helps me better represent Illinois’ interests here in Washington. We all share the goal of working together to help Illinoisans succeed. https://t.co/KqnUXNPP2o — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet with leaders from the @RushUniversity Med. Center today as they prepare for the departure of longtime CEO Dr. Larry Goodman. Rush has played an important leadership role in my HEAL initiative, helping reduce violence & improve health in their community. #ChicagoHEAL https://t.co/eaHWRDnKxU — PolitiTweet.org

Federal anti-money laundering laws should apply to all. The mega-rich and well-connected should not get a free pass. https://t.co/C6VX7tI9et — PolitiTweet.org

Always enjoy having the chance to meet with Illinoisans in Washington at our Constituent Coffees, especially when the youngest Duckworths are able to join us. Thank you to @SenDuckworth and everyone who came out to speak with us today. https://t.co/nh0ChalStV — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed spending time with student representatives from @IllinoisCoop Youth yesterday. These exceptional students are in D.C. this week to get a first-hand look at how our government works and the processes behind crafting public policy. https://t.co/JOyK0x3yAE — PolitiTweet.org

Joined @RepCheri & @SenDuckworth in a letter to DOT @SecElaineChao today expressing our strong support for the proposed state-supported Amtrak route between Chicago and Moline. I look forward to seeing this project through to the end. https://t.co/hEnA8dR54V — PolitiTweet.org

Mass arrests and mass deportations are not the answer. We must solve the root causes of this humanitarian crisis if we want to stem the flow of people who are coming to our border. https://t.co/G83Urw8vFe — PolitiTweet.org

It’s an absolute disgrace that President Trump continues to turn his back on Venezuelans in the U.S. by denying them Temporary Protected Status amid the ongoing violence and humanitarian crisis in their country. — PolitiTweet.org

Just got off the phone with interim Venezuelan President @jguaido. I told him that the U.S. continues to stand by the Venezuelan people’s hope to rebuild and return their country to the community of democracies. — PolitiTweet.org

Senate Republicans just voted to give Matthew Kacsmaryk a lifetime appointment to the federal bench even though he has repeatedly written about his opposition to LGBTQ rights & the Obergefell case. To confirm him – especially during #PrideMonth – is shameful. — PolitiTweet.org

Some good news for ITT Tech students, but thousands are still waiting on @usedgov to provide them with the federal student debt relief to which they are entitled under the law. @BetsyDeVosED: it’s time to end the delay. https://t.co/JTeQQBeehJ — PolitiTweet.org

If the FDA won’t act on e-cigarettes, maybe @SecAzar will. I sent him a letter today, urging him to use his authority to intervene and force the FDA’s hand. He must protect our children. This epidemic is only going to get worse. https://t.co/FwKkoYJLBp — PolitiTweet.org
