June 23, 2021 The Washington Post "Washington Post Live" - Transcript: Sen. Rounds Discusses Cattle Market, Ransomware and Infrastructure on Washington Post Live Sen. Mike Rounds
June 22, 2021 Tweet - "Once you pull back the curtain on Ds' "election integrity" bill, it's nothing more than a move to help Ds win elections. It would force states to turn over elections to D.C. bureaucrats. I don't think Speaker Pelosi & Sen. Schumer should be governing South Dakota's elections." Sen. John Thune
June 22, 2021 Tweet - "Here's how Politico characterized Ds' election bill this am: "It's always been a messaging bill -- a check-the-box move allowing party leaders to tell the left they tried." That's not a GOP politician saying it. That's from a paper that covers Capitol Hill day in and day out." Sen. John Thune
June 22, 2021 For the People Act of 2021 Sen. John Thune
June 22, 2021 Tweet - "If Ds were to get their election bill passed, current senators' campaigns could receive more than $1.8 billion taxpayer dollars. Yes, this bill would use Americans' hard-earned money to fund yard signs & attack ads. GOP will reject." Sen. John Thune
June 22, 2021 Tweet - "There are so many reasons to vote against Ds' election bill that it's hard to name them all. This bill would not only loosen voter fraud protections, it would direct billions of taxpayer dollars to political campaigns. The speaker herself admitted it would help Ds win elections." Sen. John Thune
June 22, 2021 Tweet - "Today's vote summed up: Republicans believe that states have the authority *under the Constitution* to conduct elections & decisions are better when they're made closer to the people. Dems believe Washington bureaucrats are better positioned to make decisions." Sen. John Thune
June 17, 2021 Tweet - "If Dems had their way, you'll need an ID to: cash a check drive a car see a doctor pick up an online grocery order rent an apartment get married apply for SNAP, social security, unemployment adopt a pet pick up a prescription donate blood rent a scooter But not to vote ... ?" Sen. John Thune

May 11, 2021 Tweet - "Dems' election bill is chock-full of unwise policies that put ridiculous federal mandates on states like South Dakota that already have well-run election systems. One example, it actually *bans* states from requiring an ID to vote. It's not good policy. It's a power grab." Sen. John Thune

April 20, 2021 Infrastructure Sen. John Thune
