Memorializing the Honorable John Lewis
Rep. Sean Casten
July 22, 2020
Tweet - "I applaud the House for passing the #NoBanAct today--it's now up to the Senate to do the same. President Trump's discriminatory ban on the entry into the US of citizens from Muslim & African nations has no place in this country and must be undone immediately."
Sen. Dick Durbin
July 22, 2020
Tweet - "My statement with @SenDuckworth on the Trump Administration's announcement of an expansion of Operation Legend--DOJ's violent crime reduction initiative--to Chicago:"
