Politician
Oct. 23, 2020
Tweet - "Honored to have received an A rating by the U.S. Inst. Against Human Trafficking. Federal, state, & local partners must all do our part to eradicate this evil and keep our children safe. The work continues until we #endhumantrafficking"
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Our Intelligence Community has again caught Russia -- and now Iran -- seeking to interfere with our election, spread misinformation, & sow doubt in the integrity of your votes. These "desperate attempts by desperate adversaries" will not succeed."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 21, 2020
Tweet - "Hard to believe that Senate Democrats just voted AGAIN to block COVID relief. There are Americans who can't feed their families because of the economic side effects of COVID-19 shutdowns, yet Democrats still refuse to act unless GOP allows 2.4 trillion in irresponsible spending."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 21, 2020
Johnson, Spanberger Introduce SAVE for Seniors Act to Guarantee Access to Free COVID-19 Vaccine for Medicare Beneficiaries
Rep. Dusty Johnson, ...
Oct. 20, 2020
Tweet - "Why haven't we passed more COVID relief? Let's boil this down, because it's pretty simple. Dems are sabotaging negotiations & holding relief hostage over blue-state bailouts. Pelosi's all-or-nothing negotiating tactics can't work, & sadly, it's Americans who'll pay the price."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 14, 2020
Tweet - "Republicans have tried for months to pass targeted support for Americans affected by COVID. We've proposed multiple relief bills, but Pelosi's demand is hundreds of billions for blue state bailouts or no deal. How can we find common ground when this is how she negotiates?"
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 14, 2020
Tweet - "Had a great discussion at @USD 's panel on the business implications of COVID-19 & the challenges/opportunities it could present for South Dakota. Thanks to @USDPresident Gestring & Biz School Dean @Venky4 for inviting me to speak & meet some of their impressive students."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 12, 2020
Tweet - "I was proud to watch my @SenateGOP colleagues defend religious liberty at today's hearing. Our Constitution specifically bans religious tests for public service. No one's religion -- whatever it is -- can disqualify them to serve on the court. Nor should it."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 9, 2020
From Heroin to Hope
Rep. Dusty Johnson
Oct. 8, 2020
Tweet - "Nancy Pelosi is holding key COVID aid hostage unless Congress adds trillions more to the national debt. Targeted COVID relief? "No." Cross mark Lifeline for small businesses? "No." Cross mark Airline employee assistance? "No." Cross mark It's pretty clear she's putting politics above policy."
Sen. John Thune
Oct. 2, 2020
Tweet - "Praying for the continued health of our president and first lady after their #COVID19 diagnosis and for all Americans who have been affected by this awful virus. We're still in this fight together."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 24, 2020
Hearing of the Communications, Technology, Innovation, and the Internet Subcommittee of the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee - Opening Statement of Sen. Thune, Hearing on Public Safety Broadband Network, Including Testimony From South Dakota Law Enforcement Officer
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 24, 2020
Tweet - "Visitors might escape to SD's Black Hills to unplug from tech. But if an emergency occurs, reliable communications -- even in these beautiful, remote places -- is a top priority. Congress created FirstNet to improve communications services for our country's emergency personnel."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 23, 2020
Tweet - "During New York's toughest moments of #COVID19, medical professionals from around the country stepped in to help. Instead of gratitude, Gov. Cuomo demanded these workers pay NY's (famously high) income tax while there."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 23, 2020
Tweet - "When Republicans saw Dems had left key ag funding out of the CR, we demanded it be fixed. It's been a hard year for farmers/ranchers: low commodity prices, bad weather, difficulties w/ markets, and -- of course -- #COVID. Very glad we were able to get this funding back in the bill."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 23, 2020
Tweet - "Very mature. America is battling a global pandemic and mourning the loss of a Supreme Court justice, but Chuck Schumer is determined to prevent committees from meeting on important topics like election security. #TemperTantrum"
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 23, 2020
Tweet - "Interesting that the minority leader conveniently left out what he was objecting to A Senate hearing on election security that then had to be canceled."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Unbelievable. The Senate Intelligence Committee was supposed to have a hearing on election security today. The Democratic leader objected & blocked the meeting from happening. Mark "election security" down as the first target of Democrats' SCOTUS retribution."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 21, 2020
Tweet - "Speaker Pelosi has withheld vital CCC funding from the House govt funding bill -- reneging on the previous bipartisan agreement. This $ would go toward helping American farmers hit hard by the pandemic, feeding children who normally rely on school lunches, & other vital areas."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 18, 2020
Tweet - "Good to see this admin supporting American farmers & ranchers. The @USDA announced second round of vital #CFAP $ to help producers hit hard by #COVID19. At the beginning of #COVID19, there was concern over food shortages. We have our f&r to thank for these fears not coming true."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 18, 2020
Tweet - "I couldn't agree more. @DepSecSteve is an old friend and colleague of mine and one of the best advocates for the American ag community. We spoke just this morning about providing additional relief funding to farmers & ranchers impacted by #COVID19. I thank him for his service."
Sen. John Thune
