Politician
March 24, 2020
Tweet - "This is a time to come together as a country -- and that includes Democrats and Republicans here in Washington. I'm hopeful that Democrats will work with us to provide relief to American workers, families, and small businesses."
Sen. John Thune
March 24, 2020
Tweet - "Proud of @3M and the many South Dakota workers who are stepping up and doing their part to combat #COVID."
Sen. John Thune
March 24, 2020
Tweet - "Great message. No American is alone as long as we are united."
Sen. John Thune
March 23, 2020
Tweet - "Dems are calling the bill they're blocking a "bailout" even though the businesses we're trying to help are struggling due to no fault of their own -- they were shut down -- and employ MILLIONS of Americans. How many Americans have to lose their jobs before Dems allow us to act?"
Sen. John Thune
March 23, 2020
Tweet - "Update: COVID relief & stimulus just blocked AGAIN by Dems. Americans around the country are rising to the occasion. It's time for Congress to do the same. Save politics for another day. We must act now."
Sen. John Thune
March 23, 2020
Tweet - "Dems are saying over & over this bill is a "bailout" for American businesses. It's not. The money they're talking about is in the form of *loans*. It has to be repaid. This is about Americans who are hurting. We're in a position to do something about it. It's time we do."
Sen. John Thune
March 23, 2020
Tweet - "Last night was probably one of the saddest days I've seen in my time in the United States Senate. Our country is in a crisis, and the Democrats are still playing a political game. We don't have the luxury of time in this fight against COVID."
Sen. John Thune
March 23, 2020
Tweet - "Dems are saying over & over this bill is a "bailout" for American businesses. It's not. The money they're talking about is in the form of *loans*. It has to be repaid. This is about Americans who are hurting. We're in a position to do something about it. It's time we do."

March 23, 2020

Sen. John Thune
March 22, 2020
Tweet - "To recap: Democrats just blocked a bill that would provide direct cash payments to Americans who need it most -- like hourly workers. Not to mention funding to help support health care workers who are on the front lines. I hope Dems can put politics aside and work with us."

March 22, 2020

Sen. John Thune
March 22, 2020
