“Engineered to the specs of freedom & independence.” An AR-15 with high-capacity magazine—the same type of rifle the Highland Park shooter used to fire nearly 90 rounds into a crowd—is what some gun manufacturers want to sell you as the epitome of American freedom & independence. — PolitiTweet.org

Kids like Cooper shouldn’t have to live their lives in fear of being gunned down at parades or slaughtered in their classrooms. But they do. And unless we stop the proliferation of military-style assault weapons in our communities, more tragedies will inevitably happen. — PolitiTweet.org

This is Cooper Roberts. He is 8 years old, loves playing baseball and soccer, and was one of the 46 people injured during the Highland Park shooting. His twin brother Luke and mom Keely were also injured. But Cooper was hurt the worst—and he may never walk again. https://t.co/uWhvwa88aK — PolitiTweet.org

Joined @FoxNewsSunday this morning to discuss the Highland Park shooting and gun safety reform. The bottom line is this: there are millions of military-style assault weapons in America. The gun lobby has made a lot of money as a result. But it has not made us safer. https://t.co/qIYeHy0uor — PolitiTweet.org

Following concerning reports of abuse at USP Thomson, I made a visit to the facility to speak with prison leadership, staff, and inmates and tour the grounds.

It’s about time—Big Pharma has been taking Medicare for a ride for far too long. It’s simple: patients and taxpayers should not be paying for costly medicines that go unused. Pleased that my legislation fixed this loophole, saving Medicare billions. https://t.co/F1Oa6zpPGW — PolitiTweet.org

The bipartisan federal gun bill that was recently signed into law provides $750M to support crisis intervention services, including administering “red flag” laws. I’ll work to secure some of this federal funding for IL so that we can help keep Illinoisans safe. — PolitiTweet.org

IL is 1 of 19 states with a “red flag” law. These laws can enable family members, household members, & law enforcement to seek court orders to temporarily remove guns & prevent the purchase of new guns by individuals who pose a significant danger of harm to themselves or others. — PolitiTweet.org

Military-style assault weapons have no place on the streets of America. And neither do the high-capacity magazines that enable these weapons to slaughter as many children in their classroom, grandmothers in the grocery store, and families at a parade as possible. https://t.co/2X9CMbTuxx — PolitiTweet.org
