Durbin Host Bipartisan Senators, NATO & Non-NATO Partner Ambassadors, Reaffirms America's Support In Face Of Russian Aggression
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 1, 2018
Tweet - "As DNI Coats said, the warning lights are blinking red again. Why did Senate Republicans turn down this help for states to prepare for future election attacks? Republican leadership has not taken this threat seriously -- not in 2016 and not today."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Aug. 1, 2018
Tweet - "Medical experts have told us that an ICE detention center is no place for a child. DHS' own medical consultants say family detention poses a "high risk of harm to children and their families." It's not "summer camp.""
