AppHarvest’s strategic location cuts down on transportation costs, will provide a reliable food source and is great for the environment. Excited for the future of AppHarvest in our district. — PolitiTweet.org

NFA forms can be complex and difficult to navigate. Third-party processors should be able to help gun owners comply with the law by allowing having the ability to assist them with NFA e-forms, just as they have for years with the paper form. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr

I have always fought to protect Second Amendment rights of law abiding citizens. Recently, I sent a letter to ⁦⁦⁦@ATFHQ⁩ to reverse rules preventing third-party processors from assisting Americans filling out National Firearms Act (NFA) e-forms https://t.co/KsBKZyc18s — PolitiTweet.org

Congress must also continue funding programs such as the Paycheck Protection Program, Economic Injury Disaster Program and USDA Rural Development programs to help small businesses like MVC manufacturing that saved 400 jobs in Jessamine County by tapping into these resources. — PolitiTweet.org

My interview with Keith Allen of JessFM radio last week about my visit to Jessamine County. It was an honor to dedicate a new sign at the historic Camp Nelson Heritage National Monument. https://t.co/ZuDkwUDUJa — PolitiTweet.org

MVC kept 400 employees on the payroll in Nicholasville because of these programs. I voted in Congress for funding to all of these programs and I will continue advocating for small business funding in Congress going forward. — PolitiTweet.org

39 times in two months, @HouseGOP tried to pass bills extending and expanding Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funds to small businesses who need it. 39 times in two months, Speaker Pelosi rejected PPP relief. Congress must act to save more small businesses and jobs in America https://t.co/wq2cVWtv66 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Andy Barr @RepAndyBarr
