By extending his hand of fellowship to a Rabbi and synagogue, our first president marked the way to be taken by all Americans. Those who commit acts of vandalism against Jews or their places of worship in Salt Lake City or anywhere else only disgrace their own souls. — PolitiTweet.org

Families are having fewer kids, partly because raising kids is expensive. My Family Security Act would give American families a healthier financial starting point through a monthly cash benefit, and eliminate penalties for marriage & stay-at-home parents. https://t.co/hqYjJeAEf0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

The brave men & women of the @CapitolPolice work tirelessly to keep the Capitol and the lives of those inside of it safe. This week, we honor those we tragically lost this year—Officers Sicknick, Liebengood, and Evans. We'll never forget the service & sacrifice of these fine men. https://t.co/jLMZkmuiql — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

The U.S. continues to nod and look the other way on China’s assent and horrific practices. The Administration's response to this existential threat: free pre-K and community college. We must partner with our allies to divert China from its malevolent path. https://t.co/m5A1qZvMz7 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

We’re at risk of consequences both dire and preventable, due to: 1. China's quest to become the world's superpower 2. Climate change 3. Crippling national debt The U.S. must not continue to ignore or minimize warnings on these critical issues. https://t.co/m5A1qZvMz7 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Iran—the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism—has been supplying Hamas terrorists with the thousands of missiles that are currently being fired at Israel. The Administration must keep sanctions against Iran in place that cut off that support. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Requiring employers to use the E-Verify system to ensure the legal status of employees will help address a driver of illegal immigration. For someone who claims to support the E-Verify system, it's puzzling that @SecMayorkas has no opinion on whether it should be mandatory. https://t.co/QK7i3gsUXr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

We must rethink our immigration system to address the root causes of illegal immigration. Cartels are taking advantage of the current crisis and outdated laws. This must be dealt with in an urgent and aggressive manner, including completing construction of physical barriers. https://t.co/0RbAijXUUS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

The person in charge of securing our border—@SecMayorkas—doesn’t believe that we have a crisis at our border. That is extraordinary and frankly, quite damning. https://t.co/xHh85OUarZ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Utahns don't need Senators from the East telling us what to do with our land. Since wilderness is so important to the Senator from Illinois, our bill designates 289,000 acres of national forest in Illinois as wilderness so he can enjoy it in his backyard. https://t.co/dQoTyZbYna — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Paying people more money not to work disincentivizes work, plain and simple. Increased unemployment benefits are leaving employers struggling to staff up. I applaud @GovCox for this decision—it’s time we reopen our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

In a blatant race for geopolitical advantage, China and Russia are outpacing the US on delivering COVID-19 vaccines & PPE to countries across the world—but US vaccines are safer & more effective. The Administration should hit the gas on distributing vaccines to countries in need. https://t.co/HaWTWtxdxF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Equating massive Hamas attacks on Israeli citizens to Israeli efforts to target Hamas militants (with prior civilian warning) is reckless and irresponsible. There must be an immediate de-escalation of violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Inspectors general root out waste, fraud, and abuse in federal programs. The lack of Senate-confirmed IGs threatens the ability of these offices to conduct the oversight and investigations necessary to ensure proper use of taxpayer money. https://t.co/SC10j5yfWe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Each day, Utah's police officers put their lives on the line to protect our communities. During #NationalPoliceWeek, we recognize the service of these brave men & women & honor the life of Ogden Police Officer Nate Lyday, who we tragically lost in the line of duty this past year. https://t.co/GKYYw4Lsm1 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

An aging society has detrimental impacts for generations. The US birthrate is now at an all-time low. With a groundswell in Congress to update our family policies, we shouldn’t squander this opportunity for a temporary, partisan and expensive half-measure. https://t.co/hqYjJeAEf0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

This is one more reason why borrowing and sending tens of billions to California was a crying shame—and why every Republican in Congress opposed it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

RT @CapitolPolice: Six of our officers have died in the line of duty. They made the ultimate sacrifice for the safety of our nation. We w… — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

There’s a groundswell in Congress, and across the political spectrum, to update policies to meet the needs of families. We must work in a bipartisan manner to update policies to help American families, while not penalizing marriage or stay-at-home parents. https://t.co/63PfuBuVQW — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Data and information provided by @KemGardnerInst on topics like diversity can help guide informed decisions on issues impacting Utah. Well-informed research has the ability to create opportunities for advancement within our communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Example: If you own a company that has a $100 profit & the corporate tax is 20%, the tax is $20. If it gives you a dividend for the $80 remaining & the individual income tax rate is 40%, you pay $32 income tax. The company’s profit yielded $52 in taxes to government: 52% not 20%. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

POTUS’ claim that “corporations aren’t paying their fair share” is beneath him. If a company earns a profit, it only goes 3 places: taxes, growing the company, &/or shareholders. $ to shareholders is ALSO taxed, taxing the profit TWICE. The “share” going to taxes includes both. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

The US must get its fiscal house in order. We can’t just keep adding onto the national debt—we’re paying $500 billion/year in interest alone! My TRUST Act creates a process to rescue federal trust funds from looming insolvency, expedited by the pandemic. https://t.co/vpauIJhYgP — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Today, the First Lady will make her first official visit to Utah. @FLOTUS—I hope you enjoy the beauty of our state and experience Utahns’ generosity and warmth. Welcome to the Beehive State! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Our country's declining population is a big problem. The U.S. birthrate is at an all-time low and in 2020, 25 states had more deaths than births. Congress must consider legislation like my Family Security Act—a monthly cash benefit to support families. https://t.co/3Bvc9x5IJJ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Our kids must have the tools to succeed in the 21st century global economy. By strengthening computer science curriculums in Utah and around the country, we can create more opportunities for students to gain the skills which our changing workforce demands. https://t.co/8PraMmgqR3 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

The Great Salt Lake is one of the largest saline lakes in the world & a cherished part of Utah. An ongoing monitoring system would inform coordinated management actions for threatened Great Basin saline lake ecosystems & the communities who depend on them. https://t.co/o0aNeGy5r9 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

We must not let China become the world’s economic, military, and geopolitical superpower. Discussing the need for a comprehensive strategy to combat the rising China threat against the U.S. and our allies with @USUAggies. https://t.co/fyxCPvGtRW — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mitt Romney @SenatorRomney

Spent the morning touring @ASIRobots in Mendon, learning about their work creating robotic technologies and speaking with employees. Innovation is the key to tackling climate change globally and keeping the U.S. economically competitive with countries like China. https://t.co/BUDxmXtw3L — PolitiTweet.org
