John Thune
Oct. 5, 2021 Tweet - "Social Media algorithms force users into information bubbles where they're not hearing anything else. All to keep people glued on their platform and make more $$.

March 10, 2021 Tweet - "The $1.9 trillion bill being billed by Dems as "COVID relief" is a bad bill.

Some changes Dems rejected:" Sen. John Thune
March 5, 2021 Tweet - "For weeks, I've been talking about how doubling the minimum wage could potentially hurt businesses, and the NY/DC press has attacked me for it every step of the way. Today, EIGHT DEMOCRATS voted against @SenSanders' proposal. Why? Because it's bad policy." Sen. John Thune

Feb. 24, 2021 Tweet - "I started working by bussing tables at the Star Family Restaurant for $1/hour & slowly moved up to cook -- the big leagues for a kid like me-- to earn $6/hour.

Feb. 23, 2021 Tweet - "The so-called "COVID relief" bill (only 10% goes directly to COVID) being pushed through Congress by Dems would raise the minimum wage to $15/hour in all 50 states.

Feb. 3, 2021 Tweet - "I'm focused on making policies that create good-paying jobs.
