Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 20, 2018

Oct. 18, 2018

Tweet - "Instead of expelling the Saudi Ambassador, ending our support of war in Yemen, or sending any sort of strong message to Saudi Arabia, the Trump Admin continues to hold photo ops with MBS. This isn't how America should respond to betrayals of its values like murdering a journalist"

Sen.Dick Durbin
Oct. 20, 2018
Tweet - "Being stuck in legal limbo is no way to live. That's why it remains imperative that we protect DACA and continue fighting to give Dreamers a pathway to citizenship and pass the #DreamAct."

Tweet - "Rhetoric like this, which has become commonplace for this President, is even more appalling on the heels of Jamal Khashoggi's murder. Violence is never acceptable, and applauding an assault on a reporter is beyond wrong and detrimental to our democracy."

Oct. 18, 2018
Tweet - "A good question for AG Sessions when he visits Chicago tomorrow to talk about crime: why is he still withholding federal Byrne JAG grant funding from the City? These are formula-based violence prevention funds, not a bargaining chip for the AG to use for ideological purposes."
