Politician
Aug. 5, 2020
Tweet - "Let's be clear, Dems' $3 trillion+ #COVID bill will never pass the Senate. It's not targeted. It's not fiscally responsible. Republicans have been trying to negotiate in good faith, but Dems refuse to work w/ us to find common ground, & they continue to push their messaging bill."
Sen. John Thune
Aug. 5, 2020
Tweet - "When Republicans announced our #COVID19 relief bill, we knew our version wouldn't be the final draft & were open to negotiating. But negotiations involve compromise on both sides, and Democrats apparently aren't willing to budge one inch on their $3 trillion+, 100% partisan bill."
Sen. John Thune
Aug. 5, 2020
Tweet - "Republicans have offered multiple proposals for the next step of #COVID19 relief, yet each time Democrats come back with the same response: "pass the HEROES Act." 1. This bill won't pass -- it's not targeted & not fiscally responsible 2. This is not how negotiations work."
Sen. John Thune
Aug. 5, 2020
Tweet - "Republicans want to pass a coronavirus relief bill, & we're ready to negotiate. But Democrats have to want to come to the table. "Our way or the highway' is not a negotiating position. I hope -- I really hope -- that Dems will work with us on a bill that can actually become law."
Sen. John Thune

The Patient Got the Win This Week
Rep. Dusty Johnson
July 30, 2020
Tweet - "No, these aren't magic beans. If you randomly receive seeds in the mail, contact the @SDAgriculture (https://sdda.sd.gov). Do not open, plant, or discard the seeds, and keep the packing intact."
Sen. John Thune
July 30, 2020
Tweet - "There's only one way we're going to make progress on the next round of COVID relief: Democrats must come to the table in a serious way. @SenateGOP wants to help, but piling an additional $3 TRILLION onto the national debt, as Dems have suggested, is a totally unserious proposal."
Sen. John Thune
July 30, 2020
Tweet - "Countries shouldn't be able to "own" generic food names like parmesan & feta. This puts made-in-America products at a disadvantage. That's why 50+ of my colleagues joined my letter to @USTradeRep & @SecretarySonny urging them to prioritize this issue in trade negotiations."
Sen. John Thune
July 30, 2020
Tweet - "Anyone who knows me knows that I love sports -- especially basketball. Sports instill important values like respect, work ethic, & sportsmanship. Pro leagues should uphold such ideals, not echo the human rights abuses of China's communist government."
Sen. John Thune
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."

Coronavirus
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 28, 2020
Letter to the Hon. Mitch McConnell, Senate Majority Leader, the Hon. Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Hon. Charles Schumer, Senate Minority Leader, and the Hon. Kevin McCarthy, Minority Leader of the House of Representatives - Baldwin Leads Bipartisan Group of Senate and House Members Calling for More Support for Farmers, Agriculture Economy in Next Covid-19 Relief Package
Rep. Dusty Johnson, ...
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 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 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."
