Trump district court nominee Michael Truncale called President Obama “an un-American imposter.” Yet Republicans are expected to rubber-stamp him for a lifetime appointment as a federal judge. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This week, Senate Republicans are expected to rubber-stamp 3 more Trump judicial nominees who are far out of the mainstream. They have turned the Senate’s advice and consent process into an assembly line to confirm ideological extremists. The Senate can, and should, do better. — PolitiTweet.org

Monday’s White House meeting with Hungarian PM Viktor Orban is a betrayal to American values abroad. The President clearly has a dangerous affinity for authoritarian figures over our democratic allies. https://t.co/D4nbmVN9qb — PolitiTweet.org

Something must be done, which is why @RepRobinKelly, @SenDuckworth, and I introduced the #MOMMAact. I spoke about our bill on the Senate floor this week: https://t.co/q7lY3aQ8rc — PolitiTweet.org

Too often in our country, new moms & infants – especially women & babies of color – are dying from preventable health complications. In IL, African American women are 6 times more likely than white women to die of a pregnancy-related complication. This is completely unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This #MothersDay is an important reminder that we as a country must do more to reverse tragic health outcomes for pregnant mothers and their infants. The United States is one of only 13 countries in the world where the maternal mortality rate is worse now than it was 25 years ago — PolitiTweet.org

Without my mother Anna, an immigrant from Lithuania, I would not be the person that I am today. Wishing a happy #MothersDay to every mom and grandma who do everything they can for their families. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
For too many in Chicago and across Illinois, just a few inches of rain can cause thousands of dollars in damages. This is why @RepMikeQuigley and I have introduced a bill to help give communities the tools they need to address urban flooding challenges. https://t.co/V1R9FOxUJH — PolitiTweet.org

Read my letter with members of the Senate Appropriations Defense Subcommittee and the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies today to Acting Secretary Shanahan: https://t.co/XSRtrJr4C6 — PolitiTweet.org

Today DOD once again bypassed Congress and diverted $1.5 billion from the troops for the President’s border wall. Dismayed that the Department has chosen to prioritize a political campaign promise over the many needs of our service members including disaster relief. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Thank you to @AdvocateHealth, @AARP, and @AmerMedicalAssn for joining me this morning to talk about this important cause. https://t.co/IAbgVY0M0T — PolitiTweet.org

The average American sees 9 drug ads each day. We are bombarded with information by Big Pharma, but kept in the dark about the crucial factor: price. Americans deserve better and I will continue working to provide transparency for patients to lower drug spending. https://t.co/tdNTt5D1Hv — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
It is devastating that students in our schools are faced with these decisions. We are failing our children by refusing to act to prevent gun violence. https://t.co/cCLb2Pctc7 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Today, the Defense Department will divert another $1.5 billion from our military to the "big & beautiful" border wall. The Pentagon has now reprogrammed 12 times more money to the wall than for repairs at Tyndall AFB, destroyed by Hurricane Michael. We should put troops first! — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
That's why @SenDanSullivan & I have introduced the bipartisan Due Process Protection Act to help protect the right of the accused to any exculpatory evidence. #CJReform — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Due Process Clause is enshrined in our Constitution as a check against government overreach, but currently there are inadequate safeguards in federal law to ensure that this fundamental constitutional right is protected. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Glad the Trump Administration finally nominated someone to permanently head the FAA – a critical agency for public safety. Good to sit down with Stephen Dickson today and discuss how to keep the flying public safe. https://t.co/lIENoRmFfo — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Introduced a Senate resolution today condemning recently imposed laws by unelected Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah in Brunei. This resolution sends a strong, bipartisan message that these actions will not stand in the U.S. Senate and do not reflect our values as Americans. https://t.co/dzsmfk6PzA — PolitiTweet.org

Student loan debt currently is one of only a few types of consumer debt that can’t be discharged in bankruptcy. It’s time for that to change. Our bill removes the bankruptcy exemption for student loans and gives student borrowers a chance to get back on their feet. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Student loan debt is at crisis levels and it is ruining lives. I introduced a bill today w/@SenWarren, @RepJerryNadler, @RepJohnKatko that would give student borrowers the chance to seek meaningful relief in bankruptcy for federal and private student loans. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I first wrote this bill in 2017 to crack down on Pharma’s drug ads & lower Rx spending by requiring price transparency @ChuckGrassley joined me to pass it in the Senate in 2018 Yesterday Sec. Azar issued a regulation On Monday, Sen Grassley & I will introduce a bill to codify — PolitiTweet.org

I want to thank Mayor-elect Lightfoot for coming by and meeting with me and the IL Congressional Delegation today. We want her to succeed so Chicago and Illinois can succeed, and she has an entire team here in Congress ready to help. https://t.co/iYGKgeav5L — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Great to meet with @RashidaTlaib this morning. We shared our families' immigrant histories and I showed her the copy of my mother's naturalization certificate that I keep on my desk. https://t.co/7Lp3C8j7yI — PolitiTweet.org

I was proud to support @KyleMcCarterIL's nomination to be U.S. Ambassador to Kenya. It was good to see him today and hear how his work in the country is going. https://t.co/cCV9DX4C9p — PolitiTweet.org

Sat down with members of @ChiUrbanLeague today to discuss homeownership programs, the Chicago HEAL Initiative, and the importance of protecting the right to vote. https://t.co/TgVHwYUJmh — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell may not want to hear from Robert Mueller, but the American people do. Joined Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats in calling for a hearing: https://t.co/Hfkbzl6OcB — PolitiTweet.org

Saddened by the passing of @nytimes reporter Robert Pear. He was a good man dedicated to journalism. My condolences to the New York Times family as they mourn the loss of their respected colleague. — PolitiTweet.org

Too often in our country, new moms and infants – especially women and babies of color – are dying from completely preventable health complications. In IL, African American women are 6 times more likely than white women to die of a pregnancy-related complication. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Acting Secretary Shanahan admitted that the Department of Defense does not have a formal plan for the southwest border mission. President Trump didn’t even request DOD funding in his 2020 budget for it. https://t.co/kxLzGHW1Pb — PolitiTweet.org
