Sen. John Thune
Nov. 18, 2020
Tweet - "We should be sitting down & working on a reasonable, targeted, fiscally responsible #COVID relief bill. Republicans have been more than willing to do that. But the Democrats continue to insist upon a multi-trillion dollar bill consisting of a bunch of liberal wish list items."
Sen. John Thune
Nov. 17, 2020
Tweet - "Yesterday, for the second Monday in a row, we received tremendous news about the prospects for a COVID vaccine. Moderna announced its COVID vaccine is over 90% effective -- raising the possibility that not one but two COVID vaccines may be available in the very near future."
Sen. John Thune
Nov. 17, 2020
Tweet - "Republicans aren't giving up on targeted #COVID relief, but so far Democrats have shown no willingness for compromise. I hope that changes. Republicans will continue to invite our Democrat colleagues to work with us to find a middle ground."

Sen. John Thune
Oct. 26, 2020

Sen. John Thune
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."

Oct. 14, 2020

Oct. 12, 2020
Tweet - "Watching today's hearing, you would've thought it was a floor debate on health care. Dems know they can't fault Judge Barrett on her merits, so they're relying on scare tactics. The truth is, we have no idea how she will rule on any case. But we do know she'll follow the law."

Sen. John Thune
Sept. 23, 2020
