The CDC is now investigating 450 cases of vaping-related lung illnesses, including 6 deaths. This should concern all Americans, especially in light of the fact that vaping and tobacco use are on the rise among American teenagers. — PolitiTweet.org

This runaway regulation would have hurt American families and placed a lot of private property under the thumb of federal bureaucrats. I applaud @POTUS’s actions to roll back this rule and commend him for his leadership on this issue. — PolitiTweet.org

As Majority Leader, one of my top priorities has been reining in the unfair, job-killing restrictions put in place by President Obama’s EPA. One of the worst was the so-called “Waters of the U.S.” rule. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, on #September11, may the memory of the nearly 3,000 victims who lost their lives on this day in 2001 serve as a lasting reminder of what’s at stake in the fight against terrorism. May we steel our resolve to continue the hard, necessary work of defending our homeland. — PolitiTweet.org

Every American should take pride in the undeniable progress we have made in overcoming the terrible chapter that was opened 400 years ago. American ideals of equality and justice — not the sins of our forefathers — are the true, deepest bedrock of this great nation. — PolitiTweet.org

With the nation, Congress looks back to 1619 and remembers the size and scope of slavery’s stain on our history. We mark this somber anniversary with grief for all the slaves whose God-given freedoms were so brutally denied. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, Congress observes the 400th anniversary of a reprehensible moment in the history of our land: The first recorded arrival of enslaved Africans in England’s American colonies. The beginning of our nation’s original sin of slavery. https://t.co/BZUZ4rSzS1 — PolitiTweet.org

Kentucky is leading the national response to the devastating opioid epidemic, and the federal resources ($31.48 Million for KY) announced today will reinforce their life-saving work. https://t.co/o9NSMVahqp — PolitiTweet.org

Any attempt by the Chinese government to crush a peaceful attempt by Hong Kongers to maintain their rights would require a significant response from the United States. The Chinese government is playing with fire, but hopefully they do not go too far. — PolitiTweet.org

I hope the American people will look at the cold hard facts of what will happen if the Democrats’ advocating for ‘The Green New Deal’ and ‘Medicare for All’ get power. Their goal is to turn America into a socialist country and that is not going to happen on my watch. — PolitiTweet.org

World leaders should pay attention to the ongoing crackdown and recent arrests of pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong. It should not be business as usual until Beijing respects Hong Kong’s autonomy and political freedoms. https://t.co/0DK8ySZJP7 — PolitiTweet.org

In this country, radical changes face a high bar by design. It is telling that today’s left-wing activists would rather lower that bar than produce ideas that can meet it. https://t.co/nLjFPZ104X — PolitiTweet.org

Now some Democrats want to touch the hot stove yet again. This time they are targeting the Senate’s legislative filibuster, a core part of our constitutional order. I explain in the @NYT why they would rue that day as well: https://t.co/nLjFPZ104X — PolitiTweet.org

The last time Democrats changed longstanding Senate rules for short-term partisan benefit, here is what it got them: Justice Neil Gorsuch. Justice Brett Kavanaugh. And 43 new lifetime circuit judges, the most ever at this point in a presidency https://t.co/lwhqan9gRG — PolitiTweet.org

I wrote the Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992, which extended special privileges to Hong Kong because of its unique status. Beijing must know the Senate will reconsider those privileges if Hong Kong’s autonomy is eroded. https://t.co/rOWgTINO6Y — PolitiTweet.org

The world is awakening to China’s abusive practices, from domestic oppression to pursuit of hegemony abroad. China’s trading partners, including the U.S, should make it clear that any crackdown in Hong Kong would have real and painful costs. https://t.co/rOWgTINO6Y — PolitiTweet.org

The people of Hong Kong are bravely standing up to the Chinese Communist Party as Beijing tries to encroach on their autonomy and freedom. Any violent crackdown would be completely unacceptable. As I have said on the Senate floor: The world is watching. https://t.co/5VPm5P4PfB — PolitiTweet.org
