I’ll be on @CNBC’s @SquawkAlley at 11:10am EDT talking about the U.S. economy and why House Democrats need to stop blocking the USMCA. Tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

The USMCA would create 176,000 jobs for American workers and generate $68 billion in wealth for America. House Democrats must stop standing in its way. My op-ed with @GOPLeader in @WSJ today. https://t.co/VMCE6LwVVM — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

I’m proud the Appropriations Committee advanced my legislation to increase funding for the Countering Russian Influence Fund and to expand democracy promotion in Hong Kong. Russian and Chinese aggression are two of the major threats facing our nation. https://t.co/F8U05FiVtI — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

The time for excuses is over. The USMCA needs to move this fall. Workers and small businesses in Kentucky and across the nation need this deal. The United States of America needs this deal. Only House Democrats are standing in the way. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

176,000 new American jobs. Tens of billions in new prosperity. Stronger relationships with two of our closest allies in the face of China’s aggressive economic policies. This is what House Democrats are obstructing by blocking the USMCA. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Later today, the Senate will vote to urge full funding for important military construction projects. I urge my Democratic colleagues not to oppose these much-needed resources for our men and women in uniform. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Senate Democrats should not create a false choice between border security and military construction. They may oppose the administration’s border security agenda but they certainly shouldn’t punish our armed forces. — PolitiTweet.org

American families deserve more choice, more competition, and more affordability when it comes to their prescription drugs. House Democrats’ new scheme to have Washington D.C. micromanage Americans’ medicine would take us backwards and jeopardize innovation and cures. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Last week, Democrats blocked funding for our men and women in uniform — including pay raises — in order to pick a partisan fight with the White House. That’s quite a statement of priorities. Funding the government will require putting partisanship aside. https://t.co/DNH0VBf7Pa — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

I’m grateful to @PatPizzellaDOL for answering my call and awarding National Dislocated Worker grant funding for employment/training services to help #Kentucky miners and their families get back on their feet. https://t.co/eLVdVaugOS — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

The way Blackjewel has treated the Harlan County coal miners is shameful, and they should be paid in full for their work. From the beginning I’ve been in constant communication with @USDOL to help. https://t.co/eLVdVaugOS — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Since 2018, we will have allocated more than $600M for supporting and securing our elections while protecting states’ flexibility from Washington overreach. This is a critical issue and this bipartisan progress should be celebrated. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

I’m proud to have co-sponsored and helped develop a bipartisan committee amendment that will provide another $250M to help states administer and secure our elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

I don’t think the American people will have much patience for this Democrat position that irritating the White House is more important than funding the Department of Defense. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Yesterday, Senate Democrats blocked legislation to fund our national defense. They blocked the resources our commanders need to keep pace with Russia and China. They blocked a pay raise for our servicemembers. https://t.co/TZ1KU25d1a — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

But not everybody is celebrating our growing energy independence. House Democrats are sending the Senate bills that would cut our ability to produce American energy here at home, weakening our economy and our footing abroad. This Senate won’t let these bad ideas take us backwards — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Thanks largely to Republican policies, America is poised to become a net energy exporter in 2020 for the first time since 1953. That's huge progress for our economy and for our national security as well, as last weekend’s attacks in the Middle East remind us. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Democrats are threatening to filibuster funding for our armed forces and a pay raise for our troops because they disagree with President Trump on immigration policy. I hope our Democratic friends allow the process to move forward when we vote later today. https://t.co/zHIGKYzNY7 — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

It has been 232 years since the signing of the greatest document in our nation’s history. It will always be a symbol of American values of individual liberty, freedom, and self-governance. #ConstitutionDay https://t.co/8f5Vb8gp95 — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Our nation must continue investing in the readiness and modernization of our military. Russia and China aren’t slowing down to wait for us. It would be a grave mistake if Democrats block the Senate from moving forward with defense funding legislation this week. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Some Democrats are also threatening to “pack” the Supreme Court if they don’t get the rulings they want. These attacks on judicial independence are not normal politics. My Republican colleagues and I will fight to preserve a fair and independent judiciary. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Despite a lack of any corroborating evidence, leading Democrats tried to grab onto yet another unsubstantiated allegation against Justice Brett Kavanaugh. We all remember this pattern from last time around: Shoot first and correct the facts later. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

The needs of our military and the safety of the American people should not play second fiddle to Senate Democrats’ political strategy. I remain hopeful that my friends on the Democratic side will not block the Senate from taking up legislation to fund defense. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Iran’s brazen attack on a Saudi Arabian oil facility cannot go unanswered. I hope our international partners will join us in imposing consequences on Tehran for this reckless attack. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

Fortunately a majority of Senators and the American people rallied behind timeless principles such as due process and the presumption of innocence. I look forward to many years of service to come from Justice Kavanaugh. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

The far left’s willingness to seize on completely uncorroborated and unsubstantiated allegations during last year’s confirmation process was a dark and embarrassing chapter for the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Leader McConnell @LeaderMcConnell

My Tobacco-21 legislation would raise the national age of tobacco purchase to 21 and keep harmful tobacco products out of the hands of vulnerable young Americans. This will continue to be one of my highest priorities. — PolitiTweet.org
