Oct. 6, 2020 Congressman Krishnamoorthi: "We Must Not Abandon Negotiations At A Time When The American People Need Help And Are Counting On Us" Rep. Subramanian Krishnamoorthi
Oct. 6, 2020 Tweet - "210,000 Americans are dead & many more face financial hardship. Instead of asking Senate R's to provide relief to struggling Americans, the President wants them to focus on confirming his nominee so they can undo the ACA & rip health care away from millions during a pandemic." Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 6, 2020 Tweet - "Like his joy ride at the hospital, Pres. Trump removing his mask while infected was vain and reckless. He is making the White House, already a #COVID19 hot spot, one of the most dangerous workplaces in our nation." Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 6, 2020 Tweet - "Sending best wishes to our top military leaders after they were exposed to #COVID19. Another stark reminder that no American can dismiss this virus. We need a plan to defeat the pandemic, and it starts with listening to experts and following the science." Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 6, 2020 Tweet - "Republicans held a super-spreader event in the Rose Garden to announce Judge Barrett's nomination & now they risk doing it again in Senate hearings.

Oct. 6, 2020 Tweet - "This last-minute step is a ploy to cover up for the President's broken promise to stop H-1B abuse.

Oct. 5, 2020 Tweet - "Especially in a pandemic, Americans rely on the expertise of federal public health agencies to provide accurate, scientific information to keep them safe.

Oct. 5, 2020 Tweet - "The President could use his diagnosis & new pre-existing condition to share public health guidance, defend health coverage, & save lives. We've already lost too many Americans to this deadly virus because of a failure of leadership. Sadly--his tweet completely misses the mark." Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 5, 2020 Tweet - "After downplaying the virus for months, the President is in the hospital & 210,000+ Americans have died from #COVID19. Pres.
