Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "FACT CHECK: Republicans claim Judge Barrett will be a neutral umpire & Democrats want courts to be "super-legislatures" with unelected judges making laws.

Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "Adding Judge Barrett to form a 6-3 conservative Supreme Court is a direct threat to Americans' access to affordable health care, voting rights, reproductive rights, marriage equality, & more. I will vote no on her nomination because I know #WhatsAtStake." Sen. Dick Durbin

Oct. 25, 2020 Tweet - "Susan is a 5th generation farmer from New Berlin, IL.

That is #WhatsAtStake." Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 25, 2020 Tweet - "Senate Republicans have made it clear: their priority is not to pass a bipartisan pandemic relief bill, but to confirm their Supreme Court nominee instead.

Oct. 25, 2020 Tweet - "Senate Republicans are breaking rules to advance Judge Barrett's nomination as fast as possible. Senate Democrats are doing everything we can to protect Americans' health care.

Oct. 25, 2020 Tweet - "Just because Republicans hold up a scrap of paper & call it a relief bill, doesn't make it one. Not a cent for hospitals, stimulus checks, rental assistance.

Oct. 24, 2020 Tweet - "How long can Senator McConnell ignore the fact that COVID-19 cases are spiking across the US?

Dick Durbin
Oct. 24, 2020 Tweet - "If Judge Barrett is confirmed, more than 100 million Americans with pre-existing conditions could lose health care protections. Women could lose the right to choose.
