The filibuster has always been the weapon of choice for those who want to beat down civil rights. When Republicans use it to block voting rights tomorrow, they’ll be following in the footsteps of those who came before them in filibustering civil rights. https://t.co/D4KZmIXBMs — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats have been very open about how we are going to pay for the Build Back Better plan. Those making over $400,000 a year will see their taxes go up. And corporations will have to pay their fair share. This is about making life better for working people in America. https://t.co/vEh0EBEG1H — PolitiTweet.org

Met with @IAEAorg Director General @rafaelmgrossi today to discuss nuclear threats from Iran and North Korea. Director General Grossi clearly understands the magnitude of the problems we face, and I look forward to continuing to work with him to resolve these difficult issues. — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow the Senate will vote on whether or not to move forward with debate on the Freedom to Vote Act. Republicans are threatening to once again filibuster voting rights. They say they want compromise—now is the time to prove it. https://t.co/fPL99u9jMr — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been estimated that more than 200 million Americans could be drinking these dangerous “forever chemicals” in their tap water. Glad to see the Biden Administration is moving to clean up our drinking water and protect Americans’ health and well-being. https://t.co/6W6DpWuiPu — PolitiTweet.org

Elections are the cornerstone of our democracy, yet we've seen election officials & election workers face a barrage of threats and abusive conduct from those seeking to overturn the 2020 election. The Justice Department must work to proactively protect election workers from harm. — PolitiTweet.org

Big Pharma lied & flooded communities across America with painkillers, fueling a record number of overdose deaths last year. That’s why @SenBlumenthal, @Sen_JoeManchin, & I are urging @US_FDA to have health professionals undergo new training on safer opioid prescribing practices. https://t.co/3jSx5p4kkG — PolitiTweet.org

I also passed the SIREN Act to help rural EMS agencies in IL purchase equipment & hire staff. Next up: I’ve introduced the Rural America Health Corps Act to bring more health professionals to rural America. Congress must come together ASAP to support our rural health providers. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Like the rest of America, rural Illinois is in need of more health care workers. That’s why I put $1 billion in Pres. Biden’s American Rescue Plan to recruit more docs, nurses, dentists & behavioral health providers to communities in need. https://t.co/jYylz7dHq9 — PolitiTweet.org

We cannot allow the temporary custodians of the Postal Service to continue in this negligence that is resulting in serious repercussions for seniors, veterans, and small businesses. I will work with my colleagues to establish more accountability and make effective changes. — PolitiTweet.org

@USPS' Inspector General found more than 60,000 pieces of mail delayed for weeks in Chicago neighborhoods earlier this year. I have heard from many of my constituents about missed prescriptions and other critical deliveries, despite the incredible effort of postal workers. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Was proud to lead the effort to secure a historic investment for the National Health Service Corps & Nurse Corps in the American Rescue Plan. Glad to see the Biden Admin. is using these funds to address health disparities & health care workforce shortages. https://t.co/P3eSjeDHWm — PolitiTweet.org

Under President Biden’s #BuildBackBetter agenda, I am working to pass the RENEW Act to create a new civilian conservation corps for the 21st century and put 1 million Americans to work to complete the needed restoration of parks, trails, and natural areas. https://t.co/7f6WRsP4UY — PolitiTweet.org

I was proud to help direct $1.45 million in FTA funding from the Low-No Emissions bus grant program for these new green buses. We need to keep the momentum going and increase federal funding for communities like Champaign-Urbana to purchase additional green buses. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
I was in Urbana today as the Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District unveiled their new solar-powered hydrogen bus fueling station. Their new fleet will be better for the environment, and provide cleaner air for the folks living in Champaign-Urbana. https://t.co/1U97B2GSQ2 — PolitiTweet.org

Timuel Black was our teacher, our inspiration and our friend. He never let us turn our eyes away from injustice. Loretta and I send our love to Zenobia and the many whose lives were touched by Tim’s amazing life journey. https://t.co/r2W6i3DvkB — PolitiTweet.org

Pleased to see UAE Foreign Minister Al Nahya speaking in Washington today about a more hopeful vision of regional cooperation. Hoping his mention of how the UAE “celebrates tolerance” can include the release of long time jailed UAE human rights activist Ahmed Mansoor. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Dr. Timuel Black was a true patriot, a Chicago treasure, and an American hero. His courage and faith in the promise of America should serve as an inspiration to us all. Sending my condolences and prayers to his wife, Zenobia, his family and friends. https://t.co/5hbLk6dtvk — PolitiTweet.org

If we want to pass on a livable world to our children and grandchildren, then we need to take major steps to limit carbon pollution. A carbon polluter fee is one of the things we should be doing to accomplish that goal. https://t.co/Ie5tvUfAZp — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Glad to see this @NIH grant be put to good use at @heartlandhelps. While READI Chicago delivers trauma-informed care to our communities, I'll keep working to bring more federal funds to help in Chicago’s struggle with gun violence. https://t.co/3VJXHaZwtg — PolitiTweet.org
