When our country was in a state of uncertainty and facing a global pandemic, congressional Democrats passed the American Rescue Plan, which powered our health care response & economic recovery. And, we did it without a single Republican vote. — PolitiTweet.org

The Upper Des Plaines River has experienced decades of urban and agricultural development that have diminished surrounding wetlands.   With the help of the $11 million I secured, we can now restore the area’s ecosystems and protect our communities from flooding at the same time. https://t.co/9HwMXXdfPv — PolitiTweet.org

Mike Pence’s belated acknowledgment of the Trump-inspired deadly January 6 insurrectionist attack on the Capitol is important, but long overdue. His words at the time of the second impeachment trial could have inspired GOP Senators to close the book on Trump’s egregious conduct. — PolitiTweet.org
