Senate Democrats just voted to filibuster the annual funding for the U.S. armed forces. It’s the second time they have blocked defense funding in two months. We can’t advance it. Remember when Democrats said their impeachment obsession wouldn't stop them from legislating? — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
House Democrats’ impeachment resolution would just codify their unfair process. Here’s what it contemplates: 1. No due process now 2. Maybe some later 3. But only if they feel like it No American, the president or anyone else, should be subjected to this kind of unfairness. — PolitiTweet.org

Waivers from Obamacare regulations have already helped states bring down premiums and restore options for Americans. Both red states and blue states have used them. Senate Republicans support protections for pre-existing conditions and oppose Democrats' efforts to reduce choice. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
While Republican policies are producing results for American workers and families, Senate Democrats are still trying to resurrect failed Obama-era ideas. This week, their goal is to cut down on states’ abilities to work around the worst of Obamacare’s burdens. — PolitiTweet.org

Ironically, the defense funding that Democrats are threatening to block includes $250M for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, the exact same program over which Democrats are attempting to impeach the president. Imagine if Democrats vote against this funding. — PolitiTweet.org

Funding the military is a critical responsibility. Democrats should not hold up funding for our servicemembers and their vital missions for the sake of picking a fight with the White House. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Democrats say impeachment won’t keep them from legislating. This week, we’ll get a clear test when the Senate votes on defense funding which Democrats filibustered last month. — PolitiTweet.org

The world is a safer place today because al-Baghdadi has been brought to justice. I applaud our intelligence professionals, the brave servicemembers who risked everything to carry out this mission, and President Trump and his team. My full statement: https://t.co/U6LHsOvcWj — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone knows that some House Democrats made up their minds long ago and have been dead-set on impeachment for years. That does not eliminate their responsibility to conduct a fair process that follows precedent and due process when trying to undo a democratic election. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
I’m sponsoring a new resolution with Chairman Graham that many of our Republican colleagues have joined. We are calling out House Democrats for disrespecting due process and inventing a new set of unfair, partisan rules just for this president. https://t.co/eeOtQvs2RB — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry is breaking critical precedents. It is denying the administration important rights that past presidents were afforded. It is violating basic rules of due process. https://t.co/eeOtQvJEgb — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
We must continue this progress. The Senate is moving forward $25 million more in support for my #CAREERAct to help those overcoming addiction find transitional housing and employment. I hope each of my colleagues will join me in continuing to support the #OpioidCrisisResponse. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
This summer brought the first nationwide decrease in overdose fatalities in almost 30 years. In #Kentucky, the rate of deaths from this epidemic dropped nearly 15 percent. I was proud to secure more than $200 million in aid for the Bluegrass State on this issue. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
One year ago today, @POTUS signed into law our landmark legislation to support the families, first responders, and healthcare professionals who have to face our nation’s opioid epidemic every day. There is much more to do but we’re already seeing encouraging results. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Justin Walker’s thoughtful and deliberate approach to the law fit the mold of an outstanding federal judge. I was proud to vote to confirm him to serve the Western District of #Kentucky this afternoon. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Some of the Democrats criticizing the administration today wanted to withdraw from Syria and Afghanistan just a few months ago. They can’t have this both ways. We need clarity: Which Senators support American leadership in the fight against terrorism and which do not? — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
I am introducing a Senate resolution to reaffirm the need for a strong U.S. presence and oppose premature withdrawal from Syria or Afghanistan. I hope my colleagues on both sides will take the opportunity to affirm these principles on the record. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Today, the Senate voted overwhelmingly to ratify the accession of the Republic of North Macedonia to @NATO. This is good news for a strong, healthy alliance that continues to defend American and trans-Atlantic interests around the world. — PolitiTweet.org

Our nation has greatly benefited from @SecretaryPerry ’s decades-long commitment to public service. My statement: https://t.co/0vblKfN0dV https://t.co/ifefPZVb0p — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump administration rightly killed this terrible policy. But now Senate Democrats want to revive it. A whole lot of self-inflicted economic pain for no significant environmental gain. I urge the Senate to reject the Democrats’ resolution later today. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
The failed Obama-era Clean Power Plan would have killed tens of thousands of jobs, sent electricity prices soaring for low-income communities, and sold off our economic edge to overseas competitors like China. All for no meaningful change in global temperatures. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Speaker Pelosi is still blocking the USMCA, a major trade deal that would create 176,000 new American jobs. Senate Democrats have filibustered defense funding and blocked a pay raise for our troops. Democrats' impeachment obsession is blocking urgent work for American families. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Already, House Democrats’ impeachment “inquiry” is violating norms and precedent. They are denying Republicans and President Trump the same rights that Democrats and President Clinton received during those impeachment proceedings. — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Washington Democrats have been engaged in a three-year-long impeachment parade in search of a rationale. Prominent House Democrats were promising impeachment at the very beginning of this presidency. Fairness and due process are not their objectives here. — PolitiTweet.org

We must avoid strategic calamity in the Middle East. My statement: https://t.co/MRitbPA2ID https://t.co/7psb842jcm — PolitiTweet.org
Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell
Washington Democrats taking their cues from Big Labor special interests is nothing new. But if Democrats kill the USMCA and the 176,000 new American jobs it will create, they will have to answer directly to working families. https://t.co/lGyrP5oiYX — PolitiTweet.org

So far, the House has fallen far short by failing to follow the same basic procedures that it has followed for every other President in our history. — PolitiTweet.org

Overturning the results of an American election requires the highest level of fairness and due process, as it strikes at the core of our democratic process. — PolitiTweet.org

The people of Hong Kong have risked much more than money to defend their freedom of expression, human rights, and autonomy. I hope the @NBA can learn from that courage and not abandon those values for the sake of their bottom line. — PolitiTweet.org
