We have a new Administration and a new opportunity to reform our criminal justice system. It’s clear that there is much going wrong in our federal prisons, and we urgently need to fix it. That effort must start with new leadership. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to call @SenatorLeahy my friend. We’ve spent many years working alongside one another and I remain impressed to this day by his humility, passion, and kind heart. I wish him all the best in retirement. The Senate and the people of Vermont will miss his service dearly. https://t.co/PUBqKNVrkZ — PolitiTweet.org

This is an historic moment for our nation and for Illinois. But Democrats are not stopping here. We are going to continue to do everything we can to invest in the American people. This is how we build our future. This is how we #BuildBackBetter. — PolitiTweet.org

The bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is going to do a lot more than just fill some potholes and fix some bridges. This law is going to revitalize the major arteries of our economy. It will—in some cases literally—pave the way for America to lead the 21st century. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin

President Biden just did something that lawmakers have talked about doing for a long, long time: sign a landmark infrastructure package into law. What the previous administration could not get done in four years, he accomplished in less than one. — PolitiTweet.org

It's finally infrastructure week at the @WhiteHouse! I was proud to help pass this historic investment in America. It will move our economy forward, create jobs in Illinois, and fortify the infrastructure of this great nation for years to come. — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see @POTUS sign @SenatorMenendez's RENACER Act into law. Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega’s regime is rife with corruption and has made it clear they will not pursue meaningful and peaceful electoral reform unless pressured. — PolitiTweet.org

Later today, I’ll be joining @POTUS at the White House as he signs the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act into law. It's a once-in-a-lifetime reinvestment in America that will have a positive impact on communities across the nation. This is how we #BuildBackBetter. — PolitiTweet.org

To all the veterans in Illinois and across the United States—happy Veterans Day and thank you for your service to our country. A special salute to my older brothers, Bill and Bob who served in the U.S. Navy during the Korean war. https://t.co/tg0vAlY9cO — PolitiTweet.org

In additional to demanding answers regarding this bait-and-switch bankruptcy maneuver, Congress should also pass our Nondebtor Release Prohibition Act of 2021 to rein in various bankruptcy loopholes that corporations like J&J exploit to dodge accountability. — PolitiTweet.org

Johnson & Johnson is attempting to deny tens of thousands of people their day in court by offloading its talc liabilities onto a new company created exclusively to protect the company's own assets—and leave cancer-victim claimants with pennies on the dollar. — PolitiTweet.org

Illinoisans’ commute times have increased by 7.3% over the last decade. The Bipartisan Infrastructure package includes $9.8B for roads and bridges in our state—much-needed funding to help keep our roads open, our bridges safe, and Illinoisans on time. — PolitiTweet.org

#COP26 was an opportunity for the United States and the world to come together around a shared goal: taking bold steps to address the climate crisis. I attended because I want to do everything I can to help build a sustainable and livable world for my children and grandchildren. https://t.co/lh5sTvojzX — PolitiTweet.org

Illinois has more lead pipes and service lines than any other state. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal that the House passed last week will make an historic $1.7B investment in Illinois’ water infrastructure—setting us on the path to clean drinking water for every Illinoisan. — PolitiTweet.org

Rising temperatures in the Great Lakes are a threat to the water quality, health, infrastructure, agriculture, and tourism of the entire region. We must take aggressive action to counter the climate crisis before it’s too late. https://t.co/YgnTRNNpU8 — PolitiTweet.org

The question for everyone in a position of power is what are you doing about climate change today? That's what #COP26 is about: gathering as a world to address this existential threat. We need to get this right so we can pass on a livable planet for future generations to enjoy. — PolitiTweet.org
