Durbin: Affordable Care Act, Women's Right To Privacy & Choice, Election Integrity At Stake With This Supreme Court Nomination
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 15, 2020
Tweet - "Republicans cutting every corner to jam through Judge Barrett's nomination before Election Day. It's unprecedented to vote to move forward on a nominee before the hearing has even ended, but they did this morning. My motion to adjourn--and finish the hearing first--was denied."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 14, 2020
Tweet - "President Trump has promised two things about Judge Barrett: she will vote to eliminate the Affordable Care Act and, if need be, help him impose his will on the upcoming election. If she lives up to even one of those promises, it will be a disaster for our nation."

Durbin: Affordable Care Act, Gun Safety Laws, Voting Rights, Election Integrity At Stake With This Supreme Court Nomination
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 14, 2020
Tweet - "There is an orange cloud hanging over this Supreme Court nomination, the first to be considered after July 1 of an election year. Millions of Americans are already voting. Their voices should be heard. Republicans are rushing it though because they want to eliminate the ACA."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 13, 2020
Tweet - "The denial of voting rights has long been used to suppress & oppress African Americans in the United States. Judge Barrett's record would suggest that she does not hold voting rights as equal to 2nd Amendment rights. That is deeply concerning."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 13, 2020
Tweet - "I'm deeply concerned by Judge Barrett's originalist argument in Kanter v. Barr that voting rights "belonged only to virtuous citizens." Today I had the chance to ask Judge Barrett why her dissent treated the fundamental right to vote so differently from gun rights."
