@SenToddYoung@SenatorBanks Our state and perhaps even you have benefitted from immigrant physicians. I have. POTUS married 2 immigrants but doesn't want anyone else to benefit going forward. His opposition to so many things that he himself has done is a craziness.
The AAFP joined 23 other medical societies in calling on the Departments of State and Homeland Security to address barriers preventing international medical graduates from entering the U.S. and remaining lawfully in the country: https://t.co/IQWMfUzwmp
A measles outbreak in South Carolina (993 cases, 20 hospitalizations, 5 months) cost an estimated $35.5M- about 6.7% of the state public health budget!
Vaccinating the same group? Just $66K–$134K. Every $1 spent on vaccines could’ve saved $536.
Prevention isn’t just smarter- it’s dramatically cheaper. Put another way, more measles outbreaks means higher taxes - for everyone. 🤷🏽♂️

@POTUS Please stop the bombings, demolitions, and killings, and threats. This is not peacemaking. This is not pro-life. This is not what Jesus Christ taught. You are wasting our taxes on war. Please end this cruel chaos.
@POTUS Please stop the bombings, demolitions, and killings. This is not peacemaking. This is not pro-life. This is not what Jesus Christ taught. You are wasting our tax dollars on killings, demolitions and chaos. @SenToddYoung@SenatorBanks@RepRudyYakym
Health care? "You're on your own."
Housing? "Nothing we can do."
Grocery prices? "You're out of luck."
$200 billion for another war? "No problem!"
Americans—Democrats, Republicans, independents—are SICK AND TIRED of endless wars.
We need to invest here at home.
@SenToddYoung All the responses promoting the Save Act are not realizing that it will disenfranchise women voters. Please carefully review that Act so citizenship is easily proven for all voters.
@SenToddYoung Hey Todd, why do Republicans keep rejecting the Democrats’ offer to fund TSA, Coast Guard, CISA, FEMA, etc?
Republicans & Democrats need to work together & negotiate meaningful ICE procedures reform.
Trump & Congress must stop playing games with peoples’ livelihoods.
@SenToddYoung@SenatorBanks It is appalling to see the fully armed ICE troops in US airports. It is more appalling to see their attacks on any peaceful traveler, much less citizens. If Senator Kennedy is right, why is POTUS blocking the deal.
Sen. John Kennedy admits on Fox News that the Republicans and Democrats reached a deal to fund TSA, but Trump said, “No. No deals with the Democrats.”
Kennedy says, “It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week.”
This is the Trump shutdown!
@POTUS is causing ICE Chaos and cruelty all around the country, now at airports, beating up citizens. . He refused even a Repub offer to end the airport chaos. The SAVE ACt will keep many legal citizens from voting due to expensive time and $ requirements. @Potus does not care.
@ElonMusk We expect our elected leaders and unelected geniuses to properly understand the laws they are promoting. This is a bill to create chaos, not retain democracy. Adding the gender issue is cruel chaos creation
Hi @SenatorBAnks and @SenToddYoung Please note Sen. Sanders stats. Vote no on the Save Act and save your constituents time, money, anxiety and their legal right to vote.
In 24 years, there have only been 77 identified cases of noncitizens voting out of hundreds of millions of votes cast.
The SAVE Act isn't about election security
It's about keeping Americans from voting.
@SenSanders
@SenatorBanks The SAVE act is another part of the @POTUS cruel chaos creations. Really @SenatorBanks, please stop and listen to all the critiques. Adding the sex change bans is a reflection of ignorance of biology Think SRY, *WNT4* and *DAX1* genes; XO, XXY and more.
@SenToddYoung How many non-citizens voted in the last election? How many citizens will be unable to vote in the next one because you voted for the SAVE ACT. Many, many, many more will lose the right to vote. Vote No the next time on this awful legislation. No more chaos.
This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”
Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”
Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”
Silence.
The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.
50% of Americans don’t have a passport.
The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.
The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.
This is not voter protection.
This is voter selection.
And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.
That’s the Senate in 2026.
