July 30, 2020 Tweet - "Countries shouldn't be able to "own" generic food names like parmesan & feta. This puts made-in-America products at a disadvantage.

July 28, 2020 Tweet - "If Dems want to play a productive role in the next phase of COVID relief, we have a good place to start w/ our targeted HEALS Act.
