I could not have been more impressed with 16 year old Stella Keating’s testimony in today’s @JudiciaryDems hearing on the Equality Act. She represents America’s future.

My friend @TammyforIL is up for re-election in 2022. I don’t have to tell you what an incredible partner she is in the Senate fighting for families in Illinois. Will you make a $10 contribution today to help her launch her campaign to keep Illinois blue? https://t.co/mpoUBF88f5

24 hours later and the Senate is still working through Republican objections to the American Rescue Plan. They can keep this delaying for however long they want—Senate Democrats are going get this relief to the American people no matter what.
Pleased to see that my provision with @RepCindyAxne to provide tax relief to unemployed Americans will be included in the American Rescue Plan. This is welcome news to the millions of Americans relying on unemployment benefits to get by during this pandemic.

Enjoyed speaking with @itsjasonflom of the @WrongfulConviction podcast about my efforts to abolish the federal death penalty and enact criminal justice reform. You can listen to our conversation at the link below or wherever you get your podcasts. https://t.co/R2RhWcbIVU
I've heard from countless Illinoisans who are worried about losing health coverage, putting food on the table, and paying off debt. We urgently need to pass additional relief legislation —and we need to do it before unemployment programs expire in March. https://t.co/VkS8ubeXar
Stories like Vahap’s have become all too common. I spoke with him and other unemployed Illinoisans last week about quickly passing a package that provides relief to Americans and extends federal unemployment benefits to help jobless workers weather this storm.
It was nice to speak with Marty Oberman today about his nomination to Chair the Surface Transportation Board. Marty is a friend and I’m hopeful we can make progress together in improving Amtrak’s reliability and efficiency for travelers in Illinois.
Spoke with @ABlinken today about his plan for the State Department in the Biden Administration. President Trump retreated from the global stage & cowered to our enemies abroad. I look forward to working with Tony to reestablish America’s leading role in the world. https://t.co/m1HD8MuiRo
After the inauguration ceremony yesterday, I saw a man in a Carhart jacket standing in the back. I stopped to thank @garthbrooks on behalf of his many Democratic fans for his rendition of “Amazing Grace.”
Aleksei Navalny has demonstrated immense courage fighting for democracy in Russia. And yet, the Trump Admin. has never once offered him a word of support—even after he was poisoned by Putin. Our retreat from the world stage has been disgraceful. > https://t.co/Ta9Kpfdo4e
Chip in today so we can invest for 2022. It'll be here before we know it. https://t.co/XqgsIX1DiD
It's more important than ever that safety-net clinics and hospitals are able to provide care to low-income and underserved communities. Threatening the 340B program is another egregious example of Big Pharma profiteering off patients and jeopardizing their care.

Today, I am being sworn in to my fifth term as a U.S. Senator representing Illinois. I am honored that the people of Illinois have given me the opportunity to continue representing their interests in Washington. I will keep fighting to create a better, mor https://t.co/oZer0YrHPo
