In a warped sense of Soviet nostalgia really about his own petty grievances, Putin has very much misjudged U.S. and NATO unity. — PolitiTweet.org

Along with modernizing #VAWA, this week the Senate passed a bill to put an end to forced arbitration for survivors of sexual assault and harassment. These bills will ensure that survivors can reach for a lifeline in a moment of crisis and seek justice. https://t.co/xSiBxgvC8F — PolitiTweet.org

Today I visited @ApnaGharInc with @janschakowsky and @ndvh to discuss #VAWA reauthorization, which was introduced in the Senate this week. This bipartisan bill will modernize & strengthen the law to ensure that it meets the current needs of survivors of domestic & sexual violence https://t.co/OJhTn2n2MW — PolitiTweet.org

During today’s meeting, I reiterated that regardless of the nominee, the Committee’s process will be fair & timely. Senators will have the opportunity to thoroughly consider the nominee’s record, and the nominee will be treated respectfully and receive a prompt confirmation vote. — PolitiTweet.org

As a former Chair of the Judiciary Committee, President Biden takes the ‘advice’ role of the Senate very seriously—and I appreciate his desire to seek the advice of Committee Senators as he considers nominees for the Supreme Court vacancy. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m honored to represent the great City of Chicago, but we are suffering from violent crime—& yet my Republican colleague won't let us confirm a critical law enforcement position for Northern IL. For God’s sake, don’t hurt innocent people b/c of an unrelated frustration with DOJ. — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see Sen. McConnell come out and state the obvious: the January 6 insurrection was not legitimate political discourse by any stretch of the imagination. Anyone who thinks otherwise has lost their grip on reality https://t.co/XBgSPPxKIn — PolitiTweet.org

War seems to have become Putin’s delusional answer to every problem he’s neglecting inside Russia. But if we stand together with our NATO allies, the United States can help deter Putin’s aggression and keep peace in Europe. https://t.co/qyi9cRc5R0 — PolitiTweet.org

In the fearful months after 9/11, we strayed from our values—including conducting lethal strikes in unprecedented ways. Now, as we grapple with modern challenges, we must ensure that the policies governing our response are grounded in the rule of law and respect for human rights. — PolitiTweet.org
