The integrity of our free elections, the right to have your vote counted, and our oath to uphold and defend the Constitution count for more. I’m sorry more of my colleagues don’t agree with that basic premise. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Unfortunately, a majority of Senators have pledged allegiance to the filibuster. But I believe there is something more critical than a Senate rule that has been changed 160 times in the history of this body. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @JudiciaryDems: Tonight, every Senate Republican voted to block us from protecting the voting rights of Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Republican-led attacks on voting rights and the fair administration of our elections are shaking the pillars of our democracy. Without federal action to combat this threat, the credibility of our elections and the peaceful transfer of power are at stake. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Sadly, many Republican lawmakers would rather repeat the twice impeached former President’s ‘Big Lie’ than face his wrath. And tonight, Senate Republicans used the filibuster once again to kill legislation that would protect Americans’ right to participate in our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
In 2006, the Senate voted 98-0 to reauthorize and strengthen the Voting Rights Act. 16 current Senate Republicans voted yes. It wasn’t a federal takeover of elections then, and it isn’t now. But the Big Lie stands in the way, consuming what was once the Party of Lincoln. https://t.co/p5bZOitpxZ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The vast majority of Republicans refuse to join Democrats in protecting voting rights for one simple reason: Donald Trump sets their agenda and dissenters pay a price. Endorse the Big Lie or endure his fury, that is their choice. And it is shaking the pillars of our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
The Big Lie has infected the Republican Party at every level, from the top to the bottom. And if Congress can’t find a way to stand up and protect voting rights, it will do the same to our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump would rather destroy American democracy than admit he lost the election. And sadly, many Republican lawmakers would rather repeat his lies than face his wrath. Congress must stand up to the Big Lie. It threatens the very heart of our democracy. https://t.co/2brBSs2Igv — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Senator McConnell has no appetite for substantive debate. If he really believes that there is no evidence of voter suppression in the actions of nearly 20 states across the nation, then he would feel comfortable defending that position on the Senate floor. — PolitiTweet.org

At the heart of Martin Luther King Jr.’s life work was the fight for voting rights. Today the battle continues. Unfortunately, many politicians who claim to honor his memory are on the sidelines of this battle—or actively fighting against his legacy. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
#MLKDay is a day of reflection, a chance to envision an America where every American is truly “free at last.” But it is also a day of action. And I hope we see action on the Senate floor soon. We must do everything we can to pass the #FreedomToVote Act and John Lewis #VRAA. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m relieved that this ended w/ innocent victims unharmed, but the warning is clear. Terrorism—both foreign & domestic—is a danger to targets of hate. To our Jewish brothers & sisters: we owe you a special effort to protect you from the threats that too often are directed at you. — PolitiTweet.org

Always good to speak with @WFP Director Beasley about ongoing efforts to feed the world’s hungry. The U.S. and its allies must help provide the necessary funds to meet growing hunger amid covid, drought, and conflict—including the risk to nearly half of Afghanistan’s population. — PolitiTweet.org

Far too many Republicans—even those who know better—have bought into Donald Trump’s Big Lie, and the ongoing assault on voting rights is a direct result. We must do everything we can to stand up and protect this fundamental pillar of our democracy. https://t.co/Z60HXFKYft — PolitiTweet.org
