I will absolutely be voting against Durbin in the primary at this point.
It’s time to repeal Section 230. We must be able to take social media companies to court for addicting kids and enabling drug trafficking on their platforms.
Sen. DURBIN: Fentanyl often gets to our kids and young people through the internet.
Section 230 absolves social media companies from any responsibility. “That has got to end.”

60 years ago today, hundreds of Americans marching from Selma to Montgomery to exercise their right to vote were attacked on what became Bloody Sunday. Today, the fight continues—which is why I have cosponsored the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. We must pass it.
