Sen. Chuck Schumer
Feb. 13, 2020
Tweet - "President Trump publicly attacked the judge who will decide Roger Stone's fate. Another example of his blatant contempt for the independence of the judiciary. Now would be the time for Chief Justice Roberts to speak up and directly defend the independence of this federal judge."

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Jan. 27, 2020
Tweet - "With this decision, the Supreme Court and President Trump are telling immigrants: Don't ask for help here. You're not welcome here. Your children aren't the kind we want here. Americans have heard such callousness before, and we will fight to overcome it now as we did then."

Dec. 10, 2019
