Dec. 5, 2019
Tweet - "October's #JobsReport showed unemployment was at a low 3.6%. In contrast, in October 2011 - the same point in Obama's presidency - unemployment was at 9%. GOP policies like #TaxCuts have helped foster a strong labor market & higher wages, which continue to attract workers."
Sen. John Thune
Dec. 4, 2019
Tweet - "Our #bipartisan #TRACEDAct passed the House & is one step closer to becoming law. I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't hate annoying robocalls that spam your phone at all hours of the day. Our bill helps to tackle these illegal calls. Look forward to consideration in the Senate."

Sen. John Thune
Nov. 21, 2019
Tweet - "Hong Kong's autonomy is under attack. Recent bipartisan passage of the Hong Kong Human Rights & Democracy Act sends a clear statement that Congress stands with #HongKongers committed to preserving the independence that's made #HongKong the prosperous city it is today."
