I'm always impressed by & grateful for the incredible health care workers & researchers at @WRBethesda, and this news is no exception. Eager to follow this vaccine's progress as a potential new tool against the evolving coronavirus. https://t.co/5SwxeJ7xbX — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to hear BOP has authorized 10% recruitment and relocation incentives for a number of severely understaffed facilities. The understaffing crisis threatens the safety of staff and inmates. This is a critical step but more must be done, including retention incentives. — PolitiTweet.org

Great holiday news for millions of federal student loan borrowers! Thank you @POTUS for extending the student loan freeze as families continue to face difficulties from the #COVID19 pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

This heinous case of domestic terrorism must be zealously investigated and, finally, resolved. In order to preserve the rule of law and deter future would-be attackers, the terrorists who murdered Alex Odeh must not escape accountability. — PolitiTweet.org

The holiday season is finally here, a time to gather with loved ones and celebrate the passing of another year. From my family to yours—Merry Christmas and best wishes for a new year. https://t.co/J45Dp5MGvA — PolitiTweet.org

My prayers are with the family of Mashawn Plummer and his colleagues at the Chicago Fire Department. He died trying to save the lives of others, and we honor his service. — PolitiTweet.org

UPDATE: I join my friend & @JudiciaryDems Criminal Justice Subcommittee Chair @SenBooker in thanking the Attorney General for responding to our request to reconsider this Trump-era opinion, and look forward to continuing to work together to strengthen our criminal justice system. — PolitiTweet.org

As you finish holiday shopping, don't forget to shop around for a 2022 health insurance plan that's right for you and your family. Choices are more affordable than ever, so take a look today at https://t.co/wM43rjghRC and #GetCovered. — PolitiTweet.org

The lack of diversity in health care hurts us all. That’s why I fought to secure an historic $1B investment in the National Health Service Corps to recruit doctors, nurses, & health care professionals of color. This will help patients & reduce disparities. https://t.co/HSoD7mpcqk — PolitiTweet.org

Johnny Isakson was a kind soul who never met a stranger. I’ll miss his goodness and his unforgettable bipartisan Georgia barbecue feeds. Rest in peace. — PolitiTweet.org

In the spirit of the season, I hope the Senator from West Virginia will at least give kids in the lowest income families a helping hand and millions of Americans suffering from diabetes affordable insulin. — PolitiTweet.org

This is good news for East St. Louis. Every American, no matter what city or state they live in, should be able to live their life free from the threat of hazardous waste and pollution. — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see President Biden has named Scott Halpin to be @USDA State Executive Director for the Illinois Farm Service Agency and Betsy Dirksen Londrigan to be @USDA State Director for Rural Development in Illinois. I look forward to working with each of them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

I was in Congress when we passed the Affordable Care Act—it took months and months of negotiations. Democrats never gave up then and we’re not going to give up now. #BuildBackBetter is going to make a huge difference for millions of American families. We will get this done. https://t.co/5WXeq5clh4 — PolitiTweet.org

For years, Purdue Pharma flooded America with painkillers and lies, profiting off the addiction epidemic they created. The Sacklers created enormous suffering and must not be allowed to escape responsibility. — PolitiTweet.org

Will be joining @DavidWestin on @BloombergTV shortly to discuss the latest on voting rights, #VAWA reauthorization, and #BuildBackBetter. Make sure you tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

Congress has a responsibility to respond to this important issue. The incoming CEO of Johnson & Johnson has a choice to make: will he continue the company's current efforts to avoid accountability to cancer victims, or reverse course? — PolitiTweet.org

Soon, this important legislation will be law—offering new hope for a cure for ALS patients and their families. I thank my friends, @bsw5020 and @sabrevaya. Their tireless advocacy has made this dream a reality. #ACTforALS #NeverGiveUp — PolitiTweet.org

I strongly disagree with the Senate parliamentarian’s interpretation of immigration proposals in #BuildBackBetter. But this is not the end of our efforts—I’ll keep fighting for immigrant families across the country who deserve better. My full statement: https://t.co/6dkKK2t1HK — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to modernize and reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. It would prove this country’s commitment to protecting those who need help the most—something that is long overdue. #VAWA https://t.co/u1cclWWAil — PolitiTweet.org

We will introduce an updated, bipartisan version of #VAWA in January—coming together in support of the simple premise that it will save lives. We need to ensure every survivor, whether they live in rural Alaska or urban Illinois, has a lifeline in a moment of crisis. — PolitiTweet.org
