I was proud to attend the historic inauguration of @chicagosmayor Lori Lightfoot this morning. I am looking forward to working with Mayor Lightfoot to help improve life for all Chicagoans. — PolitiTweet.org

When it comes to Collins, I am particularly troubled by his extensive representation of the tobacco industry and his inadequate recusal commitment when it comes to matters involving his former tobacco industry clients. #ProtectOurCourts #StopCollins — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Collins, nominated to a CA 9th Circuit seat, is receiving a vote over the objection of both CA Senators. Before this year, a judicial nominee had never been confirmed over the objection of both home state Senators. If Collins is confirmed, it will be the 6th time this year — PolitiTweet.org

On this #ArmedForcesDay we recognize the women and men who serve our country abroad and at home. America is grateful to those who put on the uniform to protect our freedom and democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Three years ago, China was our 3rd largest ethanol market. China’s 70% ethanol tariffs + secret EPA waivers = lower farm income. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
.@ChuckGrassley is right: the Trump EPA misled farmers. EPA’s secret waivers lets oil companies ignore ethanol, costs farmers $2 billion, and guts E15 demand. https://t.co/bTYVx4duNh — PolitiTweet.org

Too often we see significant health disparities simply because of where someone lives. Today I’m glad to be at the opening of @EsperanzaHealth’s Brighton Park Health Center, which will bring much-needed health services to Chicago’s Southwest Side and improve access to care. https://t.co/aTCE2WEKWq — PolitiTweet.org

#OTD 65 years ago, the Supreme Court ruled in Brown v. Board of Education to end school segregation. Today, many inequalities still exist in our school system, and we must work hard to end discriminatory policies that unfairly impact students of color. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Today, the House made history and passed the bipartisan #EqualityAct. This is a common sense bill that would protect LGBTQ Americans from discrimination. Leader McConnell should stop making the Senate a legislative graveyard and bring this important bill to the floor right away. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. House of Representatives passed sweeping legislation on Friday that would prohibit discrimination on the b… https://t.co/xX2VZBcDO1

President Trump tells the world we only need engineers and doctors to work as immigrants in America. That’s bound to raise the greens fees at Mar-a-Lago. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
So much for family values: the President’s Rose Garden immigration proposal tells close family members who have waited in line for years to join their spouses and children in America they are not wanted. Happy Mother’s and Father’s Day, Mr. President. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
No serious proposal for immigration reform can fail to address the #DACA crisis created by President Trump. The Rose Garden immigration proposal ignores the need for bipartisan comprehensive reform. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell is abdicating the Senate’s responsibility to protect the 2020 elections from foreign interference. — PolitiTweet.org

The President's campaign promise of a "big and beautiful" wall is being funded at the expense of our military. It's troubling DOD has made this wall a funding priority and steamrolled Congress in the process: https://t.co/F1c47DJMrZ — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepUnderwood is doing important work to raise awareness & tackle maternal and infant mortality and alarming health disparities in the U.S. The distressing statistics are why I intro’d the #MOMMAact in the Senate. https://t.co/fdVnzBlqYq — PolitiTweet.org

Joined @SenDuckworth at a constituent coffee with fellow Illinoisans this morning. Thank you to all who took the time to come chat with us, share your opinions, and ask questions. https://t.co/jwrv0T7PgR — PolitiTweet.org

Mr. Rosen was a longtime colleague of Attorney General Barr at a law firm, and he has held positions in other government agencies like the Department of Transportation. But that does not make him qualified to be the Deputy Attorney General. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
When I asked him about DEA’s role in setting opioid production quotas, which he will oversee, he didn’t know about it. And I asked him about DOJ’s role in immigration matters, including his priorities for immigration courts he'll oversee & he said looked forward to learning more. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
For example, when I met with him and asked him about the landmark First Step Act, he said he had, “begun getting informed about it.” When I asked him about voting rights and voter suppression, he said he hadn’t had occasion to study the issue. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Jeffrey Rosen does not have the qualifications to be Deputy AG. He has no experience working in the Justice Department or handling criminal cases. When I questioned him about core DOJ functions, he wasn’t familiar with them. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I hope that this is the first of many steps this Committee takes in the next several months to deter and punish future election interference by the Russians or any other hostile foreign power. Congress cannot sit back and ignore this threat. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Our bill would prevent foreign regimes from exploiting our immigration laws to undermine our elections. Specifically, it would make “improper interference in U.S. elections” a violation of immigration law, and violators would be barred from obtaining a visa to enter the U.S. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Mueller report makes it clear that Congress must work to combat future efforts by Russia and others to interfere in our political system. Today, the Senate Judiciary Committee took a small step forward by passing my DETER Act with @LindseyGrahamSC. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday Senate Republicans rubber stamped Kenneth Lee to the 9th Circuit. To say Lee's writings are extreme would be an understatement. He wrote, “Charges of sexism often amount to nothing but irrelevant pouting.” This is someone who deserved a lifetime federal judgeship? — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Republicans just approved Wendy Vitter to serve on the federal bench. While moderating a panel, she told an audience to urge their doctors to put in their waiting rooms a brochure entitled “The Pill Kills.” This is someone who deserved a lifetime federal judgeship? — PolitiTweet.org

Chicago lost four officers in 2018 in the line of duty. We remember and honor CPD Commander Paul Bauer and Officers Samuel Jimenez, Eduardo Marmolejo and Conrad Gary this week, and my heart is with their families, friends, and the police department. #PoliceWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see Police Commanders O’Shea and Roman from CPD yesterday during #PoliceWeek. Thankful for the service they and their fellow officers provide to all of Chicago. https://t.co/slvG3FJ3Ng — PolitiTweet.org

I’m calling on the International Red Cross to look at the immigration detention facilities at our border, which are holding detainees in dangerous & potentially life threatening circumstances. We must enforce the law, but we should never engage in inhumane conduct. https://t.co/LmqBloxvQc — PolitiTweet.org
