Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "225,000+ Americans are dead & Trump Admin has surrendered to COVID-19. The GOP-held Senate refuses to work with Democrats on relief. All of their focus is on the Supreme Court.

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 - "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.

Dick Durbin
Oct. 23, 2020 Tweet - "Glad to see my bipartisan Due Process Protections Act with @SenDanSullivan signed into law this week.

Oct. 22, 2020 Durbin Statement On Purdue Pharma DOJ Settlement Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2020 Tweet - "Judge Barrett's record is full of red flags when it comes to LGBTQ rights.
