Bourbon relies on charred, white oak barrels for its signature flavor. Today, I am proud to announce that I am a co-chair of the newly formed Congressional White Oak Caucus to ensure the proper management of white oak forests and the longevity of Kentucky’s bourbon industry ⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

As a strong supporter of America’s military and veteran communities, I am proud to highlight the work that @EKU in #KY06 does to create degree pathways through its VETS Ready Opportunity Portal. Find out more here ⬇️ https://t.co/Faazlt5wx9 — PolitiTweet.org

I recently voted for legislation to boost natural gas production and restart oil and gas leases on federal lands. Perhaps the Administration should look inward to solve this crisis instead of blaming producers. I’ll continue to work for solutions while Biden points fingers. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Democrats are blaming American energy producers and Putin for skyrocketing gas prices. But Biden’s anti-energy agenda is what’s truly costing Kentuckians thousands at the pump. https://t.co/QVBrnKsBOO — PolitiTweet.org

#KY06 is home to the largest Toyota manufacturing plant in North America w/over 9,000 Kentuckians building the vehicles of the future. — PolitiTweet.org

It was a pleasure to host leaders from @ToyotaPolicy of KY in my office. Susan Elkington serves as President of Toyota Motor Manufacturing of KY, Kerry Creech is VP of Manufacturing for Toyota of KY and Kim Menke is the Regional Director of Government Affairs for Toyota of KY. https://t.co/M1YislKg6z — PolitiTweet.org

Therefore, these funds could be used as leverage to get the Russian’s to stop their war in Ukraine while not completely cutting off our European allies (who are dependent on Russian energy) from that resource — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

My bill prohibits banks from processing Russian energy transactions unless @SecYellen grants a waiver.  If she does, funds used in the transaction would be placed in escrow — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

.@SecYellen expressed openness to my bill to end the Russian energy loophole in our sanctions. Currently, U.S. banks can process transactions involving Russian energy to other countries. My bill is not a full ban on these transactions. Instead, I propose a carrot & stick approach https://t.co/dFFpwmlELT — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

We need an all-hands-on-deck approach to end homelessness. That’s why I’m pushing the Housing PLUS Act to require at least 30% of HUD Continuum of Care funds be distributed to providers that require wraparound services. https://t.co/3SgWHNlgz5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Great conversation on the @jasonrantz show on the failures of exclusive reliance on Housing First to end homelessness. Effective providers in my District who require sobriety or job training are blocked from receiving federal funds under Housing First. https://t.co/ZQBAE6ru4G — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

U.S. banks can still process transactions involving Russian energy to other countries. Until this loophole in our sanctions is closed, the U.S. will fund Putin’s war. My bill, the No Energy Revenues for Russian Hostilities Act of 2022, ends this loophole. I explain to @newsmax ⬇️ https://t.co/XBm8yhZk0C — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Going live on @Newsmax with @HeatherChilders. I will outline my bill requiring the State Dept to report to Congress on China’s support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. We will also discuss my bill to fully close the energy loophole in our sanctions related to Russian energy. https://t.co/l2lw2IPqtG — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Coming up at 12:35pm, I will be going on @larrygloverlive to discuss my latest legislation in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Bidenflation. Listen live ⬇️ https://t.co/z3IpthRhD7 — PolitiTweet.org

House Democrats blocked this bill from passage. I will continue to push for stiffer penalties on fentanyl drug traffickers that are killing Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

Last week, I voted to permanently make fentanyl related substances a Schedule 1 drug. Over 100,000 Americans died from drug overdoses last year and overdose deaths spiked by over 50% in the Commonwealth. https://t.co/Sg1jAQLvMA — PolitiTweet.org

I had the pleasure of meeting with cadets from West Point at the U.S. Capitol today, including #KY06 native Nick Dennis from Winchester. Talking to cadets like Nick always strengthens my hope for the future of our Republic. Thank you all for your service to the country! https://t.co/OSQnUx2Dn5 — PolitiTweet.org

There is no better advocate for the Jewish community in Kentucky than @BluegrassRabbi. His leadership throughout the Commonwealth for the Jewish faith is staunch and impactful. It is always a pleasure to sit down and talk with him. Thank you for your friendship, rabbi. https://t.co/T4K6genFGg — PolitiTweet.org

We need a full report on their collaboration to inform the public & enable lawmakers to reposition the U.S. take this new Axis of evil head on. @CalliePatteson of @nypost reports. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

I’m leading the AXIS Act, requiring @StateDept to report to Congress on the support given by the Chinese Communist Party to Russia before & during the invasion of Ukraine. The unholy alliance between the CCP & the Kremlin is a serious threat to the United States and our allies. — PolitiTweet.org

I regularly advocate for their requests because UK’s College of Agriculture is so critical for creating the next generation of agriculture leaders and supporting the agricultural industry in Kentucky and throughout the nation. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I hosted leaders from @UKAgriculture in my office. We discussed UK’s priorities for the upcoming Farm Bill and budget process. Thank you to Dean Nancy Cox, Marianne Smith Edge, Drew Graham, Bobby Foree, and Chris Crumrine for attending. https://t.co/RCo1w4ufrN — PolitiTweet.org

Over 2 million migrants crossed illegally through the southern border last year and more fentanyl poured through the border to kill every American seven times over. Now is not the time for more of Biden’s open borders policies. — PolitiTweet.org
