Politician
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. In their rush to confirm Judge Barrett & eliminate health care, Rs have abandoned needs of Americans during this pandemic."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 24, 2020
Tweet - "COVID-19 cases in IL are surging to record levels. Please think about your neighbors, your loved ones, and our health care heroes. Basic, selfless steps like wearing a mask and distancing can save lives."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 24, 2020
Tweet - "How long can Senator McConnell ignore the fact that COVID-19 cases are spiking across the US? The Senate should be working around the clock on a comprehensive bipartisan relief bill. Instead, Rs are focused on rushing through a Supreme Court nominee. It's shameful in every sense."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 24, 2020

Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Pres. Trump has made it clear: he wants Judge Barrett to rip the ACA's health care protections away from the 100+ million Americans with pre-existing conditions, during a pandemic. Democrats understand what's at stake here. Will 4 Republican Senators have the courage to join us?"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Sinking to a new low, Secretary of State Pompeo's bewildering attempt to label renowned human rights & humanitarian orgs as anti-Semitic reeks of desperation. This petty move only further undermines America's global leadership & prestige. It should go no further."
Sen. Dick Durbin

Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 21, 2020

Durbin On McConnell COVID-19 Bill: An Effort To Find Political Cover, Not Real Help
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 21, 2020
Tweet - "Yesterday I spoke with @SecPompeo & @HomelandKen to press them on the Trump Admin's dismal refugee resettlement plans. In the midst of the dire global refugee crisis, this Admin coddles dictators while cruelly closing our nation's doors to the most vulnerable."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 21, 2020
Tweet - "We're in the midst of serious epidemic & it may get worse. The American people need real economic relief & a plan to stop the virus. But sadly, Sen. McConnell's partisan #COVID19 relief bill was a symbolic, political measure that did not go nearly far enough."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 21, 2020
Tweet - "The Trump Administration cruelly separated thousands of families with no plan to reunite them & now comes the devastating--but not surprising--news that hundreds of the parents cannot be located. The perpetrators of these human rights abuses must be held accountable."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 21, 2020
Tweet - "If Congress doesn't come together to pass meaningful #COVID19 relief soon, this recession is only going to get worse. More people will lose their jobs and more businesses will fail. Senator McConnell may be prepared to accept that, but Democrats are not."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Congress needs to pass meaningful #COVID19 relief to help stop the spread of this virus & support struggling workers & their families. Instead, Sen. McConnell wants to pass a bill that protects big corporations from accountability. The American people can see through this sham."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Senator McConnell isn't serious about passing meaningful #COVID19 relief. His "skinny" bill that we're voting on later this week doesn't even have the support of the White House. It's a symbolic measure that fails to address this crisis. The American people deserve better."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Senator McConnell's partisan #COVID19 relief proposal is half-hearted & half-inspired. It doesn't do enough to stop the virus, help workers, or support families. Its sole intention is providing political cover for vulnerable Senate Republicans who have failed their constituents."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "I'll be going on @CNN with @JakeTapper soon to discuss the state of COVID-19 relief negotiations in the Senate and the latest on the Supreme Court. Make sure you tune in."
