The opioid crisis can't be solved in jails or ERs. We need to get to the root problems. That means educating more health providers about responsible prescribing, holding Big Pharma accountable for their lies, expanding access to treatment, and protecting Medicaid and the ACA. — PolitiTweet.org

As we celebrate the 75th Anniversary of D-Day, we can’t forget the MS St. Louis. 80 years ago today, the United States cruelly turned away more than 900 Jewish refugees aboard the MS St. Louis as they sought safety from Holocaust. We must always welcome refugees with open arms. — PolitiTweet.org

America needs to maintain a strong STEM workforce in order to compete in the modern global economy. If we deny international students with these degrees from our universities a chance to continue their work in America, we’ll be shipping much-needed talent we trained overseas. — PolitiTweet.org

As residents of the East St. Louis Housing Authority continue to report unsafe and hazardous living conditions, their requests for repairs have gone largely unanswered. I hope @SecretaryCarson will take steps to address this issue and will reconsider cutting this crucial funding. — PolitiTweet.org

These cuts will only accelerate the deterioration of public housing units nationwide and the purported reason for underfunding – fiscal discipline – rings especially hollow given how @SecretaryCarson spent $40,000 of taxpayer money on a new dining set & dishwasher for his office. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, @SenDuckworth and I sent a letter to @SecretaryCarson to express concern about the status of the East St. Louis Housing Authority. As the backlog of repairs continues to grow, this Administration is proposing further cuts to funding for public housing across the country. https://t.co/L2e7RnDdIy — PolitiTweet.org

DHS informed Congress today that troops are going to spend the next month painting the border wall & “the primary purpose is to improve the aesthetic appearance.” A disgraceful misuse of taxpayer $$. Our military has more important work to do than making Trump’s wall beautiful. — PolitiTweet.org
