Politician
Oct. 24, 2020
Recognition of the Minority Leader
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 24, 2020
Tweet - "Since Judge Barrett's qualifications are beyond reproach, many on the left have instead turned to distortions & distractions. Americans won't be fooled & have seen through these tactics. It's no surprise that a majority of Americans support her confirmation."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 24, 2020
Tweet - "Senate Republicans are working over the weekend to ensure that Democrat shenanigans don't slow down Amy Coney Barrett's confirmation. It's a shame to see how Democrats have politicized the judicial confirmation process over the last 30-plus years."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 23, 2020
Letter to Scott Levins, Dir. of the National Personnel Records Center - Reps. Van Taylor, Jimmy Panetta Urge NPRC to Resume Processing Military Personnel Records
Rep. Dusty Johnson, ...
Oct. 23, 2020
Tweet - "Honored to have received an A rating by the U.S. Inst. Against Human Trafficking. Federal, state, & local partners must all do our part to eradicate this evil and keep our children safe. The work continues until we #endhumantrafficking"
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 23, 2020
Tweet - "Sudan has normalized relations with Israel, making it the 3rd nation to do so this year. The #AbrahamAccords are providing a historic forum for building trust and fostering peace among neighbors."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 22, 2020
Nomination of Amy Coney Barrett
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Our Intelligence Community has again caught Russia -- and now Iran -- seeking to interfere with our election, spread misinformation, & sow doubt in the integrity of your votes. These "desperate attempts by desperate adversaries" will not succeed."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 22, 2020

Sen. John Thune
Oct. 21, 2020
Rounds Meets with Judge Amy Coney Barrett
Sen. Mike Rounds
Oct. 21, 2020
Johnson, Spanberger Introduce SAVE for Seniors Act to Guarantee Access to Free COVID-19 Vaccine for Medicare Beneficiaries
Rep. Dusty Johnson, ...
Oct. 21, 2020
Coronavirus
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 21, 2020
Tweet - "Hard to believe that Senate Democrats just voted AGAIN to block COVID relief. There are Americans who can't feed their families because of the economic side effects of COVID-19 shutdowns, yet Democrats still refuse to act unless GOP allows 2.4 trillion in irresponsible spending."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - ""I apply the law. I follow the law. You make policy." - Judge Barrett This is exactly the kind of justice Americans want. It's not surprising that a majority of Americans support Judge Barrett being confirmed to the Supreme Court."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Well, the votes are in, and Democrats said "no" to this important lifeline for American businesses and workers."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Democrats have presented two options at the negotiating table: $2.4 trillion in government spending or zero-point-zero dollars in relief. If you refuse to look for a middle ground, you aren't negotiating. I hope Democrats think of their constituents and change course."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Why haven't we passed more COVID relief? Let's boil this down, because it's pretty simple. Dems are sabotaging negotiations & holding relief hostage over blue-state bailouts. Pelosi's all-or-nothing negotiating tactics can't work, & sadly, it's Americans who'll pay the price."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Do Democrats truly want to provide relief to the American people, or do they just want to keep this as a political issue? It's becoming more clear, because we've been trying to negotiate, while Dems are showing they'd rather pass no relief than compromise w/ Republicans."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 19, 2020
Providing for Congressional Disapproval Under Chapter 8 of Title United States Code, of the Rule Submitted By the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Relating to ``Community Reinvestment Act Regulations''--motion to Proceed
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 17, 2020
Tweet - "A little bit of wind and rain can't ruin opening day of pheasant season. I look forward to this day every year. It's a great way to get out on the prairies of South Dakota and take in some of our state's wonderful beauty."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 17, 2020
Tweet - "Enjoyed this amazing event at the Eagles Gallery in Pierre yesterday. South Dakota has always punched above its weight when it comes to military service. This was a great way to pay tribute to our WWII heroes. My dad would've been honored to be included."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 16, 2020
Happy National School Lunch Week
Rep. Dusty Johnson
Oct. 16, 2020
A South Dakota Tradition
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 16, 2020
Tweet - "Social media companies act as a filter and create an information bubble for their users. Their algorithms filter info so users see what these platforms want users to see. This is a big problem. These companies have to be accountable."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 15, 2020
Tweet - "Americans deserve to know what content moderation policies are used by tech platforms when they suppress or amplify content. The New York Post story is a good example. Transparency in these decisions is a matter of accountability to the American people."
