Politician
July 29, 2020
Tweet - "Coronavirus has turned lives upside down. People who are now working remotely in a different state than their office and medical professionals who traveled to help fight #COVID19 should NOT be subject to higher & more complicated tax bills. My proposal "
Sen. John Thune
July 29, 2020
Tweet - "It makes no sense to most South Dakotans why a t-shirt they wear can say "made in country x" but often the beef we eat cannot. Americans would like to know where in the world their beef is coming from, yet the @WTO continues to rule against country-of-origin labeling for beef."
Sen. John Thune
July 28, 2020
Tweet - "SCAM WARNING: If the @SDDOH contacts you about potential #COVID19 exposure, they will NEVER ask for credit card info or money. If you are asked for this info or asked to pay anything, it is a scam. It's sad to see scammers taking advantage of this crisis."
Sen. John Thune
July 28, 2020
Tweet - "If Dems want to play a productive role in the next phase of COVID relief, we have a good place to start w/ our targeted HEALS Act. The House bill, which would cost $3 TRILLION+, is chock-full of liberal agenda items, fiscally irresponsible, & will not be considered in the Senate."
Sen. John Thune
July 27, 2020
Tweet - "The #HEALSAct announced by @senatemajldr is the result of months of careful evaluation of existing #COVID19 relief efforts. This new, targeted relief bill will give support to Americans who truly need it. I'm hopeful we can come to an agreement that reflects these priorities."
Sen. John Thune
July 27, 2020
Tweet - "The HEALS Act would provide targeted and effective relief to the people who need it the most: health care heroes on the front lines of this pandemic, Americans struggling through the resulting economic crisis, small biz owners who are trying to sustain/rebuild, and our students."
Sen. John Thune
July 25, 2020
Tweet - "Great to welcome the Battery A, 1-147th Field Artillery home to South Dakota. So proud of these young men and women who've served our country."
Sen. John Thune
July 24, 2020
Defending Those Who Defend America
Sen. John Thune
July 24, 2020
Tweet - "America is committed to the security of our allies in the Indo-Pacific, defending our interests, and keeping global waterways free and open. Proud to see our B-Ones from Ellsworth AFB demonstrating this resolve to China and the world."
Sen. John Thune
July 24, 2020

Graham, Capito, Rounds Introduce Legislation to Move PPE Supply Chain from China to the United States
Sen. Mike Rounds, ...
July 22, 2020
Tweet - "Without a doubt, we cannot reverse this economic downturn w/o attacking the underlying health care crisis. We must ensure medical workers have resources to treat patients, develop treatments, & find a vaccine. This continues to be a priority in the next phase of #COVID relief."
Sen. John Thune
July 22, 2020
Tweet - "We've been closely monitoring the $2.4 trillion in relief funds that have already been allocated to fight #COVID. We've held dozens of coronavirus hearings to identify how we can provide targeted & fiscally responsible relief. Focus of the next phase: kids, jobs, & health care."
Sen. John Thune
July 22, 2020
Thune, Enzi Introduce Legislation to Improve Integrity of the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance Program
Sen. John Thune, ...
July 22, 2020
Tweet - "I hope that my Senate Democrat colleagues will eventually look beyond their liberal wish list & work with us to build a bipartisan #COVID19 relief package that addresses the real issues Americans are facing. This bill is not an opportunity to sneak through partisan agenda items."
Sen. John Thune
July 22, 2020
Tweet - "A few of my priorities in this next phase of federal #COVID relief: -More relief for struggling Americans -Funding for impacted farmers & ranchers -Protection from surprise state taxes for #COVID relief & mobile/remote workers -Telehealth -Liability protections for schools & biz"
Sen. John Thune
July 21, 2020
Tweet - "We had a good meeting with @senategop & members of the president's team where we discussed some of the broad principles of the next round of federal #COVID19 relief for the American people. We are all in agreement that this effort is about kids, jobs, and health care."
Sen. John Thune
July 21, 2020
Tweet - "Some take it for granted that we have the strongest military in the world, but as this 2018 report shows, years of underfunding/budgetary uncertainty left our military under-equipped to meet modern threats. This #NDAA will continue restoring readiness."
Sen. John Thune
July 21, 2020
Tweet - "The Senate is set to vote on the NDAA later this week. It's thanks to @JimInhofe 's leadership in crafting this excellent #NDAA that it is laser-focused on restoring military readiness & ensuring we're prepared to meet threats posed by major powers like #Russia & #China."
Sen. John Thune
July 21, 2020
Rounds, Colleagues Introduce Bill to Allow Americans to Sue China over COVID-19 Pandemic
Sen. Mike Rounds
July 21, 2020
Tweet - "#China & #Russia have been flexing their power and investing in their military -- not only to challenge the U.S. & allies but also intimidate neighbors & expand their spheres of influence. This #NDAA will help ensure we're prepared to counter threats posed by other great powers."
Sen. John Thune
July 21, 2020
Tweet - "The #COVID19 crisis we're facing today is different than the one we saw in March, & as a result, so will be our response. Waiting and evaluating was the right call. While Rs and Ds might have differing priorities for this next phase, there is a common-sense solution within reach."
