Politician
Sept. 10, 2020
Never Forget
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 10, 2020
Tweet - "It's wild to me that Dems just blocked GOP's bill that would've put billions in relief funds toward students, vaccine research, American jobs, & more areas of immediate need. Even if it didn't contain all the spending Dems want, isn't targeted relief better than no relief?"
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 9, 2020
Tweet - "As I informed the @EPA back in June, any so-called "gap SREs" will only worsen challenges for biofuels and our farmers. The administration would be right to fully reject these petitions."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 9, 2020
Tweet - "For any South Dakotans struggling with thoughts of suicide, please know help is available. To talk to someone call or text 800-273-8255 or text TALK to 741741. #SuicidePreventionWeek"
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 9, 2020
Tweet - "Let's be clear: The Democrats' current negotiating position is that unless Congress passes their $3 trillion #COVID spending proposal, they aren't interested in a deal. That's right, Dems think providing Americans with *zero* assistance is better than our targeted bill."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 9, 2020
Tweet - "Here's a quick update on our latest effort to get vital funding to Americans who are most impacted by the #coronavirus pandemic We're focused on areas with the most immediate need: - unemployed Americans - vaccine research - small businesses - testing - students & parents"
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 9, 2020
Tweet - ". @SenateGOP 's latest #coronavirus relief bill is another effort by Republicans to try to find common ground on a realistic #COVID19 funding proposal. This week's vote will be an opportunity for Dems to finally take action after showing an unwillingness to negotiate for months."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 8, 2020
Tweet - "There have been two consistent themes of the #COVID19 federal response: 1. Dems' unwillingness to negotiate on any point unless GOP agrees to add trillions to the national debt. 2. Republicans' efforts to find common ground on a targeted and fiscally responsible COVID relief."
Sen. John Thune

Sen. John Thune
Sept. 3, 2020
Tweet - "Automated vehicles have the potential to drastically improve safety on America's roads. I was glad to be a part of @USDOT @SecElaineChao 's launch of the AV TEST initiative. America should be leading the way to harness the safety & economic benefits of this emerging technology."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 3, 2020
Tweet - "Any #AV policy must ensure 3 things: 1. preserve roles of federal & state regulators 2. build on @NHTSAgov 's efforts to update regulations not written with AVs in mind 3. enhance NHTSA's ability to expand testing & grant exemptions if existing regulations block safety innovations"
