Durbin Statement On DHS IG Report Detailing CBP's Inadequate Controls & Oversight Of FY19 Humanitarian Funding
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 30, 2020
Tweet - "Today is the end of the fiscal year, and still no meeting. In the midst of worst refugee crisis in history, the Trump Admin is so determined to turn away innocent survivors of war and terrorism that they are illegally refusing to consult with Congress about refugee admissions."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 26, 2020
Tweet - "President Trump's shameful attempt to divert money away from our men & women in uniform & towards his border wall vanity project was an attack on Congress's power of the purse. Glad that the DC Circuit has stood up for the separation of powers."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 25, 2020
Tweet - "It's been 100 days since Supreme Court struck down Pres. Trump's repeal of #DACA. That's 100 days of the Trump Admin refusing to reopen DACA. And 100 days of @SenMajLdr refusing to bring up bipartisan House-passed Dream and Promise Act to give Dreamers a path to citizenship."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 25, 2020
Tweet - "Chad Wolf has been deeply involved in cruel, anti-immigrant policies like family separations, the repeal of #DACA, & deporting countless women & children fleeing violence. He should be held accountable for these abuses, not approved by the Senate."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 23, 2020
Letter to the Hon. Joseph Cuffari, Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security - Brown, Colleagues Urge DHS Inspector General to Investigate Alleged Forced Hysterectomies at ICE Facility

Rep. Chuy Garcia
Sept. 18, 2020
Tweet - "Listen to the inspiring story of Esmerelda Tovar-Mora, a #DACA health care hero from Hutchinson, Kansas working on the front lines of the pandemic. @SenateMajLdr needs to give the #DreamAndPromiseAct a vote so we can protect Esmerelda & millions of other Dreamers & TPS holders."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 17, 2020

Rep. Subramanian Krishnamoorthi
Sept. 17, 2020
Tweet - "President Trump is trying to rescind TPS from hundreds of thousands of immigrants with deep roots in our country -- including 130,000 essential workers -- so he can deport them. The Senate must immediately pass Dream & Promise Act to give these TPS holders a path to citizenship."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 17, 2020
Tweet - "Great to meet with students from @UofILSystem yesterday during their virtual visit to Washington to discuss education in the age of #COVID19 and ways the federal gov't can improve college affordability and protections for undocumented students."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 17, 2020
Tweet - "Listen to the amazing origin story of legislation I introduced 19 years ago to give Dreamers the chance to become citizens. It happened because @Tereza_Lee had the courage to tell her story. She inspired a movement & we won't stop fighting until the #DreamAct is the law of land."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 16, 2020
Tweet - "Honored to speak w/ Venezuela's interim President Juan Guaidó. More than 2 yrs after Venezuela's discredited election, it's outrageous that Maduro is pressing ahead w/ another sham election, this time for the legislature. What they need is a credible & fair presidential election."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 16, 2020

Tweet - "Senate Republicans have yet again blocked my efforts to pass bipartisan, House-passed legislation designating Venezuela for Temporary Protected Status. Their blatant disregard for the people of Venezuela is a betrayal of our commitment to protect the vulnerable."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 16, 2020

Rep. Chuy Garcia
Sept. 16, 2020

Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 16, 2020

Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 15, 2020
Tweet - "There must be an immediate independent investigation of these horrific allegations. If true, these are grave offenses and the perpetrators must be held accountable for violating the dignity and human rights of the victims."
