I’m live on the Senate floor, making the case for why the U.S must stand with our NATO and Ukrainian allies against Russian aggression. Watch: https://t.co/x0fCcfOxCw — PolitiTweet.org

While it is not a replacement for comprehensive voting rights reform, our bill would modernize the framework of the Electoral Count Act of 1887 to clarify ambiguities in the electoral process to truly ensure the will of the voters will prevail. https://t.co/0sdAq7pz3r — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

The last year has made it clear that the Electoral Count Act must be updated to reflect the threats posed to our elections. I’m working on legislation with @SenAngusKing & @SenAmyKlobuchar to establish clear & consistent procedures for counting & certifying electoral votes. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

During #BlackHistoryMonth, we honor and celebrate the indispensable contributions of African Americans to our history and culture. But we also must recognize the many injustices that this community has faced and recommit ourselves to building a more equitable and just society. https://t.co/ChXzQ1CwLy — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve asked BOP for an immediate briefing on this latest instance of deadly violence in our federal prisons, and on what BOP is doing to protect staff and inmates from further violence. https://t.co/mwX9Du0wKC — PolitiTweet.org

Over the weekend, I visited the Brandon Road Lock & Dam over the Des Plaines River in Joliet, which will play a key role in protecting the Great Lakes from invasive Asian Carp. Another massive win for Illinois—and the entire region—in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. https://t.co/LaSKZECWHf — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is all about #BuildingABetterAmerica. Check out this new @WhiteHouse guidebook for state, local, Tribal and territorial governments on the historic $1.2 trillion investment here: https://t.co/jjg0YOjbHt — PolitiTweet.org

I’m live on the Senate floor this afternoon to discuss the remarkable career of Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer and to preview the upcoming confirmation process for his replacement, whoever she may be. Watch here: https://t.co/0sqT9uaIG1 — PolitiTweet.org

It took numerous lawsuits & nearly a decade later we’re still cleaning up the mess Burnett made as head of Westwood College. We cannot allow a repeat of this disaster. Read more about Westwood & how I helped recover $16 million in relief for students: https://t.co/iWn3LhvPJy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

After scamming IL Westwood College students out of an education & burying them in debt as CEO of Westwood’s parent company, George Burnett is set to run @UOPX. This hire shows the systemic rot across the #4profit college industry. https://t.co/5wZui51B6H — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks the two year anniversary of Illinoisan Mark Frerichs’ abduction in Afghanistan. He remains in captivity to this day. I continue to urge President Biden to do everything possible to bring Mark home and reunite him with his family. We must not forget him. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

We must do everything in our power to reunite Mark Frerichs with his family. I continue to urge the Biden Administration to work towards securing his release from Taliban captivity and finally bring him home. https://t.co/Qvg32pPP4q — PolitiTweet.org

This project will benefit the entire region by deploying the newest technologies at this unique location to stop Asian Carp in its tracks and create good paying jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

The impact of Asian Carp would be devastating to the economic and environmental resources of the Great Lakes, and the Brandon Road project is our best chance at protecting our region’s greatest natural resource. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

Today I joined @SenDuckworth in Joliet to discuss the $225.8M in @USACEHQ funding from the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act for the Brandon Road project to stop the spread of invasive Asian Carp. https://t.co/01cCljZPiF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

Honored to announce that Illinois leads the #Top10LEED state for 2021 with the most LEED-certified space per capita nationwide. Thank you to all the Illinoisans who are working hard to build a more sustainable future for our state. https://t.co/NOEkXZixWa — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

For the first time in a long time, we have the funding we need to advance important Illinois projects that impact the lives of us all. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

The bottom line: It’s time to expand the Chicago Shoreline project to new areas of the shoreline that are being impacted by climate change and the threat of invasive Asian Carp to the economic and environmental resources of the Great Lakes is real and must be addressed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

Today I was joined by @chicagosmayor and other leaders at @shedd_aquarium to celebrate $1.5 million allocated by @USACEHQ to study the Chicago Shoreline project and $225 million to stop the spread of invasive Asian Carp into Lake Michigan. 📸: Heidi Zeiger, City of Chicago https://t.co/hUNRXceUln — PolitiTweet.org

I commend the Biden Administration for its considerable help to our Ukrainian allies amid Putin’s warped nostalgia for past Soviet glory. https://t.co/iXsCui5Rld — PolitiTweet.org

On #HolocaustRemembranceDay we remember the 6 million Jews and many others murdered in the Holocaust. With hatred and antisemitism on the rise globally, we must remind ourselves to always stand up and speak out when others are suffering. — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see under the Biden Administration the United States is leading the global effort to provide free COVID vaccines—a must to ultimately rein in the virus. https://t.co/T8oCt3tal6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

The last two years have seen a surge in carjackings in Chicago and across the nation. This alarming increase underscores the need for industry coordination and public-private partnership to help prevent and swiftly respond to these crimes. This must be a priority. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

The United States has a critical role in leading allied deterrence of Russian aggression in Ukraine and the Baltics. Putin must not be allowed to bully his way through Europe. https://t.co/eyEgNO3fWO — PolitiTweet.org
