JUST PASSED - two of my amdts to H.R. 1 that will require: ▶️a report on voter data collection & efforts to prevent cyber-attacks against registered voters. ▶️the AG to submit a report to Congress on the impact of ensuring military members are able to vote via mail-in voting. https://t.co/jHjOU8XWpp — PolitiTweet.org

Physician-owned hospitals play a key role in providing quality, efficient, & cost-effective health care. @RepGonzalez & I intro'ed the Patient Access to Higher Quality Health Care Act of 2021 to restore doctors’ freedom to innovate & serve their patients. https://t.co/Uuu72jay9l — PolitiTweet.org

We are where we are today because of Operation Warp Speed. Our focus now should be ensuring that shots are getting in arms. — PolitiTweet.org

Fact - illegal border crossings are up over 40k compared to this time last year. We need to be encouraging immigrants to follow our laws not providing them ways to break them. https://t.co/EBkILDQ4wu — PolitiTweet.org

Children should never be separated from their families b/c they are being used as pawns to break our laws. This reunification policy doesn't address the problem of children being trafficked, but it encourages it to keep happening. https://t.co/Bu6H27SSHB — PolitiTweet.org

#COVID19 has affected more than our physical health. Redirecting funds to ensure our students have essential mental health programs should be a bipartisan issue. I appreciate @RepAshleyHinson for leading on this issue. https://t.co/C6kfRQ4cTE — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Besides not being compliant with the “Byrd Rule,” Dems $1.9 trillion #COVID19 bill could lead to cuts in Medicare and raising fees for student loans. :https://t.co/x3rBQslDG0 — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the start of #WomensHistoryMonth ... Join me in reflecting on the great women we have in our lives. One for me is Dr. Benjy Frances Brooks. She was a mentor of mine, who reminded me that when treating children we must not just view them as smaller adults. https://t.co/Z5RRJe5tsA — PolitiTweet.org

To more quickly recover from this pandemic the government must step out of the way, and end burdensome regulations. I reintroduced the #FlatTax Act, to simplify our nation's tax code. https://t.co/kCBAell1i1 — PolitiTweet.org

To have three safe and effective vaccines not even a year from learning the virus sequencing is an outstanding accomplishment, and a true testament to the dedication of American scientists and a shining example of American resourcefulness.

The intention of 18 U.S.C. 924(c) was never meant to apply to federal contractors protecting diplomats overseas. I reintroduced H.R. 1105 to prevent them from being unfairly sentenced for actions while serving in a hostile foreign war zone. https://t.co/lOLzgCwfX7 — PolitiTweet.org

Starting the weekend on a good note with @US_FDA advisory panel recommending in a 22-0 vote J&J’s single dose #COVID19 vaccine be granted an EUA. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans were excluded from the Budget Reconciliation process. My full statement on this morning's early vote ⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/nWC0125Bc9 — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Congress cannot be serious about helping Americans defeat #COVID19 while excluding @HouseGOP sincere amendments to improve H.R.1319. Now is not the time to push through partisan priorities. https://t.co/ABtcYxmQjg — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

This was an amendment put forward by the bipartisan @ProbSolverCaucus leader @RepTomReed — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

The premise of this legislation was to provide relief against #COVID19. Instead it puts forward a partisan agenda. — PolitiTweet.org

🚨HAPPENING NOW 🚨 @RulesReps is holding a hearing on #BidenBailoutBill You can #tunein here: https://t.co/QmN0KGYjJp https://t.co/AFkgEZ2UMQ — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Since @LeaderHoyer and @RepMcGovern didn't respond to my letters earlier this week, I will again ask during @RulesReps today for a full House of Representatives security briefing. https://t.co/8tCsVmEQjd — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

(2/2) That is why I put forward a motion to instruct during @housebudgetGOP and will intro an amendment @RulesReps to provide #COVID19 testing along our southern border to ensure the spread doesn't continue from those coming to our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Here's a #TBT - A year ago I called for hearings to make sure we were adequately prepared for #COVID19. I thought it was a wise step to prohibit travelers coming from hotspots. I still believe that preventive steps will help defeat COVID-19. (1/2) https://t.co/uAPOrMVW2L — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Since I didn’t receive a response from Speaker Pelosi, I followed up my letter to @LeaderHoyer and @RepMcGovern because Members should be briefed on this critical issue. — PolitiTweet.org

#ICMYI I told @MikeEmanuelFox one hazard of having a [COVID-19] bill this big is that you will find completely unrelated items in there. My door is open to discuss these things, but we shouldn't be jamming it into a bill meant to provide relief from this pandemic. https://t.co/15lHLCZlRL — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

There is a lot of disinformation surrounding the #COVID19Vaccine. My best recommendation is that you talk with your talk doctor to decide how best to protect yourself from this virus. https://t.co/JoLhU1gcnY — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Burgess, MD @michaelcburgess

Here is #goodnews to start your day. Not only is the J&J vaccine one dose, but it is also 86% effective against other severe forms of the virus. https://t.co/WCsMn7iAcb — PolitiTweet.org
