Thune Statement on POW/MIA Flag Act Being Signed Into Law
Sen. John Thune
Nov. 8, 2019
Tweet - "The POW/MIA Flag Act is now law. Our men & women in uniform have valiantly chosen to serve in defense of our freedom & security. Displaying a POW/MIA flag to honor those who haven't returned home is the least we can do to recognize these heroes & the sacrifice of their families."
Sen. John Thune

Executive Session
Sen. John Thune
Nov. 7, 2019
Tweet - "With #VeteransDay around the corner & a successful mission against #ISIS fresh in our minds, it's particularly difficult to fathom how & why Democrats have chosen to block vital funding for our military. Funding our troops should be the first priority of every member of Congress."
Sen. John Thune
Nov. 5, 2019
Tweet - "We live in peace and safety every day because of the men and women of the United States military. The least -- the very least -- we can do in return is make sure that they have the funding for the resources they need to do their jobs and come home safely."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 31, 2019
Johnson Votes Against Impeachment Inquiry
Rep. Dusty Johnson
Oct. 31, 2019
Tweet - "Dems have tried, on multiple occasions, to block funding for our military. They'll have the opportunity today to vote for defense funding and show their support for our men and women in uniform. Enough talk. If you #SupportOurTroops, prove it."

Sen. John Thune
Oct. 29, 2019
Tweet - "Honored to be there to welcome home 112 brave South Dakotans in the @SD_Guard this weekend. They left friends and family for nearly a year to build interoperability with our NATO allies and restore readiness. Forever grateful."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 29, 2019
Tweet - "The American people understand how important our military is, and I don't think it'll be lost on them if the Democrats carry through on their intent to block funding. Let's hope that Dems come to the conclusion that funding our troops is something that we all ought to be for."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 28, 2019
Tweet - "I was proud to attend a welcome home celebration for members of the @SD_Guard this weekend. We are eternally grateful for the service of these brave South Dakotans and their families."

Sen. Mike Rounds
Oct. 22, 2019

Sen. John Thune
Oct. 22, 2019
Tweet - "I enjoyed catching up with my longtime friend and former Senator Abdnor staffer, Carol Twedt, and her son today. They stopped by on behalf of @IJM, a great organization that is working to combat violence against women & children in Central America."
