I'm honored that President Donald Trump has signed into law my bipartisan legislation to help increase veteran access to Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) scholarships. Read more: https://t.co/3tMmfVsaFI — PolitiTweet.org

I enjoyed visiting @REMSAOfficial and its member Contech Engineered Solutions at their manufacturing facility in Winchester this week, discussing funding for transportation infrastructure and the short line tax credit. https://t.co/67Ch8LPMnw — PolitiTweet.org

My view is that a child care center, any provider that’s caring for the children of veterans should not be employing an individual that’s been charged with a sex crime, a violent crime. Thanks to @starsandstripes for covering this important issue. https://t.co/cYl609Wokj — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

We need to focus on maximum wages not minimum wages. I want workers to earn a lot more than $15 per hour. But to give that opportunity to as many workers as possible we need economic growth—not central planning from Washington. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

And less than 20 percent of workers who would see a wage increase under this bill actually live in households that earn less than the federal poverty line. We need to focus on policies that will increase wages for all workers, not just minimum wage workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Also - There are mountains of evidence that a higher federally mandated minimum wage leads to fewer workers hired. Regardless, whether you are for or against raising the minimum wage, we have to stop thinking so small. Less than 3% of American workers earn the minimum wage. — PolitiTweet.org

I join @GovMattBevin in his commitment to battling this epidemic, and have made it my priority in Congress to secure essential federal funding and resources for Kentucky’s Sixth District. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Republicans support higher wages, and I applaud those who are trying to create better pay for American workers. But raising the minimum wage is the wrong path. It is bad for Kentucky and bad our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

A minimum wage hike would have a negative impact on entry-level and part-time jobs, especially for those under the age of 25 just starting careers. It would result in $9 billion net reduction in family income. This would NOT help low-income families - it would hurt them. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

MYTH: Raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour will increase family income. FACT: Raising the minimum wage will reduce pay for many American families. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Under the Trump Administration, the economy has experienced sustainable and significant job creation. A $15 minimum wage hike would reverse these wins, resulting in roughly $3.7 million jobs LOST. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Today I voted against the Raise the Wage Act, a misguided attempt to increase income for workers, which would reduce jobs in the Kentucky. https://t.co/hWQzsGZrsx — PolitiTweet.org
