#COVID19 has highlighted the importance of securing this network. Congress needs to work towards reducing limitations. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

I introduced 2 amendments for Friday's @RulesReps to eliminate lang. aimed at Ligado & return jurisdiction of this issue to @HouseCommerce We can't limit our ability to maintain preeminence in the buildout of 5G & the independent FCC took steps to keep American moving forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Part of the problem with opposition to Ligado is that the power restrictions placed on Ligado limit them to the equivalent of a 10 watt light bulb. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Concerns about Ligado causing interference ignored the restrictions placed on them by @FCC & the years spent studying the tech to ensure efficient operation w/o disruption. Lang. in #NDAA was included to prevent the expansion of our broadband infrastructure. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

In April, @FCC's vote to approve @LigadoNetworks application to expand 5G was a step in the right direction to increase the nation's broadband capabilities. — PolitiTweet.org

With summer in full swing and more Americans on the road for travel it is important to remind everyone about sharing the road. Safety is essential as the country opens up from this pandemic. I appreciate @RepBalderson for helping to lead this effort. — PolitiTweet.org

#COVID19 has placed undue burdens on America's energy sector. This important industry employs over a million people directly and millions more indirectly. It's time to temporarily remove key federal burdens to secure these jobs for the future. https://t.co/0EOLLmnx2I — PolitiTweet.org

One year ago, I attended the announcement of @realDonaldTrump kidney initiative. This is an issue I've been fighting for years. Now is the time. https://t.co/YlFodr4jyq — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

A kidney transplant is an investment. An investment that can make the difference between living and dying. We must ensure that we protect this investment, honor the gift of kidney donation, and improve the lives of millions of Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Word of advice if you can't have a @McConaughey between you and your friends - wear a mask. — PolitiTweet.org

A recent study on hydroxychloroquine shows that it can cut the death rate among hospitalized #COVID19 patients. One thing about this drug is abundantly clear: it has been used as a political tool. https://t.co/NMzTN3mWKX — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to @NAMITexas and RALI for including me on their webinar. It is important to continue to provide services and supports for individuals struggling with mental health and substance use disorders, esp. now with #COVID19 — PolitiTweet.org

#ICYMI @MarkDavis asked me about children returning to school this fall. Here is the bottom line - The money ought to follow the child. Wherever the best environment is for them to learn that's where the federal or state funds should go. https://t.co/dBPSacRS7M — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

#ICYMI @seanspicer & Co. asked - Best advice for your fellow Texans? Here it is - Social Distance and if you can’t, wear a mask. Wash your hands more times than you think necessary. https://t.co/iI6YePZbSQ — PolitiTweet.org

We have seen numerous innovative uses of 3D printing. ▶️@universityofmi1 working to print 1k nasopharyngeal swabs per day. ▶️@UMNews developing a technique using motion capture to print electronic sensors directly on living organs. ▶️@UNTsocial is printing face shields. — PolitiTweet.org
