Politician
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: Sadly, many Republican lawmakers would rather repeat the twice impeached former President's "Big Lie' than face his wrath. And tonight, Senate Republicans used the filibuster once again to kill legislation that would protect Americans' right to participate in our democracy.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: The Republican-led attacks on voting rights and the fair administration of our elections are shaking the pillars of our democracy. Without federal action to combat this threat, the credibility of our elections and the peaceful transfer of power are at stake.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: Senator McConnell has no appetite for substantive debate. If he really believes that there is no evidence of voter suppression in the actions of nearly 20 states across the nation, then he would feel comfortable defending that position on the Senate floor.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: In 2006, the Senate voted 98-0 to reauthorize and strengthen the Voting Rights Act. 16 current Senate Republicans voted yes. It wasn't a federal takeover of elections then, and it isn't now. But the Big Lie stands in the way, consuming what was once the Party of Lincoln.

Durbin To Senate Republicans: Join Us In Defending American Democracy
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 17, 2022
Tweet: #MLKDay is a day of reflection, a chance to envision an America where every American is truly "free at last." But it is also a day of action. And I hope we see action on the Senate floor soon. We must do everything we can to pass the #FreedomToVote Act and John Lewis #VRAA.

Schakowsky Votes to Advance Voting Rights Bill to the Senate
Rep. Jan Schakowsky
Jan. 12, 2022
Tweet: Far too many Republicans--even those who know better--have bought into Donald Trump's Big Lie, and the ongoing assault on voting rights is a direct result. We must do everything we can to stand up and protect this fundamental pillar of our democracy.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 12, 2022
Durbin To Senate Republicans: Join Us In Protecting The Right To Vote
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 11, 2022
Our colleague John Lewis put his life on the line on Edmund Pettus Bridge to protect the bedrock of American liberty: your right to vote in a free and fair election. It's time for the Senate to join him on that bridge and pass the #FreedomToVote Act and John Lewis #VRAA.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 11, 2022
Tweet: The right to vote is the foundation of our democracy. We should be doing everything we can to strengthen that foundation, not chipping away at it piece by piece and state by state. I join @POTUS in his call for immediate legislative action on voting rights.
Sen. Dick Durbin

Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 6, 2022
Tweet: oday, I stood shoulder to shoulder with my colleagues in a somber moment of reflection on the very steps violent extremists charged to try to stop us from certifying the 2020 election. For the sake of our history & Constitution, we cannot forget the events of January 6, 2021.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 6, 2022
Tweet: Our democracy is safer because Donald Trump isn't President. But there's more we can, and must do. In the coming days, we'll have the opportunity to pass legislation to make sure voting rights are a sacred right, and that this right is reflected and respected in the future.
