Law enforcement today detained an armed man intent on attacking a sitting Supreme Court Justice. Ongoing efforts to threaten and intimidate Justices are despicable. Speaker Pelosi & House Dems need to stop stonewalling the Senate’s SCOTUS security bill. https://t.co/hh0uwK7OnX — PolitiTweet.org

Wonderful to welcome Nebraska 4-H Youth to the #NebraskaBreakfast and Capitol Hill this morning. I enjoyed discussing the importance of agriculture education with the next generation of Nebraska’s leaders. https://t.co/wOhMJSFL7V — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed meeting with @NNFANALA this afternoon. We discussed workforce shortages and retention problems, which have been exacerbated by the pandemic. I am grateful for the work they do to provide Nebraskans with quality care. https://t.co/7jUpvX7qv9 — PolitiTweet.org

Question from last night on @Jeopardy…   ANSWER: Who is Maya Angelou?    Proud to have sponsored a bill creating the American Women Quarters Program that Congress passed in 2020. It created coins that highlight women trailblazers in American history. https://t.co/1tJBTEfRwr — PolitiTweet.org

Today we remember the sacrifice & bravery of the men who stormed the beaches of Normandy 78 years ago. We will never forget the Greatest Generation’s actions to defend freedom and defeat evil. #DDay https://t.co/RcCrMXFsVb — PolitiTweet.org

Great visiting with small business owners yesterday in Hastings. We discussed the supply chain, inflation and other challenges facing small businesses. It was especially wonderful to see young entrepreneurs making Hastings their home. https://t.co/3ult2j5GaQ — PolitiTweet.org

Recently met with staff at Allo Communications, a Nebraska-based company, here in Hastings. Their ongoing efforts to provide Nebraskans with access to fiber-optic services will have positive impacts on our communities for years to come. https://t.co/QUrPkOPrE7 — PolitiTweet.org

Thrilled to participate in today’s ribbon-cutting ceremony for Charles Drew Health Center’s new teen/young adult facility.   This center is going to provide excellent physical, mental, and behavioral health care for many young Nebraskans in Omaha. https://t.co/e4GsKRzgwk — PolitiTweet.org

I was privileged to walk with our Gold Star families in the Patriotic Parade in Omaha this morning and be with my friends Nola and Barbara who lost sons in defense of our freedoms. The sacrifice of these families is not forgotten. https://t.co/nWW34RUKHt — PolitiTweet.org

This is a long overdue opportunity to properly recognize Officer French’s tremendous courage and service to our nation. Thank you to @RepDonBacon for his hard work on this effort. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Excited to announce legislation to rename an Omaha post office after Petty Officer Charles Jackson French has passed the Senate! The bill now heads to the President’s desk for his signature. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

The violence we saw in Uvalde, TX, yesterday was absolutely horrifying.   As more details emerge, it only reinforces how heinous this attack was.   My deepest condolences go out to the families suffering after this tragedy. — PolitiTweet.org

In the Senate, I’m working to advance the HERO Act, which would expand resources for firefighters and EMS workers to help prevent suicides, set up peer-to-peer counseling, and treat posttraumatic stress. (2/2)   https://t.co/zRGdSoQrjS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Deb Fischer @SenatorFischer

Tonight is “We Remember Night” – a moment to honor firefighters and EMS personnel who have been lost to suicide. At 9pm CT, firefighter and EMS organizations across the country will pull out their vehicles and run their lights for one minute to mark the solemn occasion. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Pleased to cosponsor this bill, which will help ensure families who rely on the WIC program can buy affordable formula. I've also joined my colleagues in demanding answers from the FDA on why the agency was unable to mitigate this crisis in the first place. https://t.co/W84L0Jr2Gp — PolitiTweet.org

This report should serve as a wakeup call to the administration. We must adequately address the shortcomings of the current U.S. approach to counterterrorism in Afghanistan. (3/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Deb Fischer @SenatorFischer

This includes our lack of reliable partners on the ground, lack of intelligence and strike assets close to the battlefield, and lack of assured access to airspace. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

The IG report reaffirms many of the concerns I’ve been raising for months. ISIS-K is reconstituting its capabilities in Afghanistan, yet the Biden administration often downplays the obvious flaws in its ‘over-the-horizon’ counterterrorism strategy. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

DHS said today it will pause the Disinformation Board. I had serious concerns about how it would affect free speech which is why I cosponsored @SenTomCotton’s bill to defund it. This pause should be a permanent one. https://t.co/G22yAE7k1t — PolitiTweet.org

It’s exciting that $2 million from the infrastructure law is going to NE for water efficiency projects. The Lower Republican NRD will be able to improve irrigation and save more water. That’s good news for farmers, property taxpayers, and the environment. https://t.co/5lYmei05Fc — PolitiTweet.org
