CNN "CNN Newsroom" - Transcript: "Interview with Sen. Raja Krishnamoorthi"
Rep. Subramanian Krishnamoorthi
Oct. 23, 2019
Tweet - "#HoldAVote"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 23, 2019
Tweet - "Our nation's top intelligence chiefs have told us time and time again that Russia & Iran are planning to interfere in the 2020 election. This shouldn't be a partisan issue. Sen. McConnell -- #HoldAVote."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 23, 2019
Tweet - "Nominees for lifetime appointments to federal judgeships should know their way around a courtroom. There are plenty of experienced attorneys in the Second Circuit -- so why did the WH pick Steven Menashi, their own in-house lawyer, when he has literally never argued in court?"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 23, 2019
Tweet - "While the House is busy passing legislation to address the most pressing issues facing the American people, Senate Republicans are focused almost exclusively on rubber-stamping President Trump's unqualified, ideological judicial nominees. This week, it's Justin Walker of KY."

CNN "The Situation Room" - Transcript: "Interview with Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi"
Rep. Subramanian Krishnamoorthi
Oct. 22, 2019
Tweet - "The President's decision to play around with security aid to Ukraine is outrageous and despicable. This funding was desperately needed to fight off Putin and his invasionary forces. And all to dig up dirt on the Bidens. Why is this President so enthralled with Vladimir Putin?"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2019
Tweet - "Another bill buried in Senate Majority Leader McConnell's legislative graveyard. Why are Republicans so unwilling to protect our democracy? It's time for Senator McConnell to #HoldAVote on the Election Security Act. We cannot allow a repeat of what took place in 2016."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2019
Tweet - "Trump judicial nominee Steven Menashi has never tried a case, argued an appeal, or conducted a deposition. Instead, he's been working with Betsy DeVos & Stephen Miller to help carry out their partisan agendas. He's entirely unfit for a lifetime appointment to the federal bench."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2019
Tweet - "Senator McConnell can #HoldAVote on this bipartisan resolution whenever he wants. What is he waiting for?"
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 22, 2019
Tweet - "The damage President Trump has done in just over 1,000 days in office has destroyed the credibility of the United States around the world. He has repeatedly betrayed our closest allies and stood by the world's worst dictators. A grim moment in the history of this country."

Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 17, 2019
Tweet - "Chairman Cummings was one of the most respected members of the House. He was a man of conviction & dedicated his life to the pursuit of equality & justice for all. Loretta & I send our thoughts & prayers to Chairman Cummings' family, friends & colleagues. May he rest in peace."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 17, 2019
Tweet - "Art. I, Sec. 9: "no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State." Another stunning display of corruption."
