Thune: Democrats Threaten to Change the Rules if They Can't Get Their Way
Sen. John Thune
Jan. 11, 2022
Tweet: The filibuster is a critically important part of our government. It ensures 3 KEY things: 1. The majority of laws are bipartisan 2. Laws that impact Americans' lives aren't changing every few years 3. Americans w/ representatives in the minority party still have a voice in gov't
Sen. John Thune
Jan. 11, 2022
Tweet: Voting should be easy and accessible, but Democrats' "voting rights" bill isn't about getting more Americans to the polls or strengthening faith in our system. They have openly admitted that this bill is about giving their party an advantage in the next election.
Sen. John Thune
Jan. 6, 2022
Tweet: My statement on the anniversary of the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot
Sen. John Thune

Thune: Democrats Receive "F" on 2021 Report Card
Sen. John Thune
Jan. 4, 2022
Tweet: "It'll be a doomsday for democracy." That's how @SenSchumer described eliminating the Senate filibuster when the shoe was on the other foot.
Sen. John Thune
Dec. 16, 2021
Tweet - "Just announced the Preventing Mandates on Toddlers Act to block the federal gov't from forcing toddlers in the Head Start program to wear masks, even on the playground. This is yet another example of a burdensome Biden admin mandate that is being forced onto American families."
Sen. John Thune
Dec. 15, 2021
Tweet - "The Senate just passed #NDAA to fund our military. I was proud to vote yes in support of our troops and the many big wins for South Dakota, including B-21 construction at Ellsworth Air Force Base."

Dec. 8, 2021
Tweet - "Right now, we're facing a Biden-created border crisis, energy crisis, and inflation crisis. Our supply chains are broken, our businesses can't find workers, & the cost of many goods is through the roof. Yet, this is what the president is doing today."

Sen. John Thune
Dec. 1, 2021
Tweet - "Roe v. Wade was a bad decision, and the Supreme Court acted far outside of the Constitution when it created this precedent nearly 50 years ago. Our country was founded on the right to life, a right that should be extended to unborn children."
Sen. John Thune
Nov. 30, 2021
Tweet - "Tomorrow SCOTUS will hear arguments in the Dobbs case, which offers the best opportunity in years to see Roe v. Wade overturned or modified -- something that's long overdue. I hope SCOTUS will uphold Mississippi's law and open the door to greater protection for unborn children."
Sen. John Thune
