The Senate Foreign Relations Committee took a momentous step yesterday by voting to ratify Finland’s and Sweden’s NATO applications, two allies of the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Now it is not time to equivocate. At this critical juncture, let’s work with allies to provide #Ukraine what they need to defeat evil, protect their homeland, and defend democracy. https://t.co/ZT1yrXzTLr — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We can all see that President Putin certainly underestimated the courage, effectiveness, and resiliency of the #Ukrainian people. The world must know that freedom-loving countries around the globe have #Ukraine’s back for as long as it takes. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I am encouraged that Finland and Sweden are leaving a history of neutrality behind and have applied to join @NATO. I look forward to confirming Finland and Sweden’s requests and I hope that the Senate will approve their @NATO applications before the Senate adjourns in August. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I also spoke about Russia’s horrific attacks against non-combatants and civilian infrastructure throughout Ukraine, including a recent strike which killed three children. We must not allow evil to prevail in Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I urged the Biden admin to send more HIMARS to #Ukraine to target Russian forces from longer distances. The U.S. is a global military power and has hundreds of these in our inventory. We can help #Ukraine fight back. The best way is to provide them with more HIMARS. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Tonight, I spoke on the Senate floor for the 18th consecutive session week to discuss the brutal, unprovoked Russian attacks on the people of #Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Congress must pass my bipartisan Offices of Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction and Health Security Act to reauthorize & strengthen the DHS Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office w/ updated requirements, standards, and accountability measures to protect our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I also pressed them on their efforts to secure our border as @CBP has reported already this fiscal year, 50 individuals on the terrorist watch list have been apprehended at the southern border, a significant rise from the single-digit encounters in previous years. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This morning at a #HSGAC hearing to examine weapons of mass destruction and health security threats posed to our nation, I pressed admin officials on their efforts to safeguard our homeland. https://t.co/rbC7NgDKOk — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I was pleased to meet with Prime Minister @natgavrilita today to discuss the security and energy situation in Eastern Europe and Moldova’s EU bid moving forward. The U.S. is thankful to have a strong partner in Moldova. https://t.co/Qm2W0irdlg — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Great to meet with the next generation of agriculture leaders and innovators today in D.C.! The Buckeye State is tremendously grateful for the work of @OhioFFA and the important role they play in training #Ohio’s youth to be leaders in the ag industry. https://t.co/pLB7x4ugzQ — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

My bipartisan JOBS act is what is needed now to promote career and technical education in #Ohio. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The lack of responsible border policies by this admin is allowing Mexican transnational criminal organizations to push these deadly drugs into our communities. This admin must take action to end their border crisis. https://t.co/LjFMrJMOF4 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The surge in illicit narcotics coming over our border continues to endanger families in #Ohio & throughout the US. This month’s @CBP numbers show cocaine seizures increased 62% & this is only the cocaine that is being seized as the vast majority is getting through undetected. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The bipartisan infrastructure law, which I helped spearhead, has new historic funding for airports to upgrade its facilities & improve the customer experience. I’m excited about the opportunities for growth and expansion here in Cincinnati, #Ohio. https://t.co/1nt9Jzrqpg — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

It was great to visit @CVGairport this morning to discuss how the airport is using the funding in my bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and taking advantage of this great opportunity. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The June @CBP numbers show more than 207K total encounters at the border, the 4th month of more than 200K encounters. In comparison, in June 2020, there were only 33K encounters. It’s clear that this administration’s failed policies are encouraging unlawful migration. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The June @CBP operational stats show that with 3 months left in FY 2022, this admin’s border crisis has already broken the record for the highest number of border encounters in one year. https://t.co/LjFMrJMOF4 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I urge the Biden admin and my Democrat colleagues to work with Republicans to find a sensible solution. We should be helping American small businesses, not hindering them. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The latest national employment report by ADP research showed that though many employers added new jobs, small businesses with fewer than 50 employees actually lost 91,000 jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

62% of small businesses are saying that inflation is having a substantial impact on their business. Democrats’ plan to expand taxes for small businesses is the wrong policy for the wrong time. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today we pause to remember the 298 innocent lives lost when MH17 was shot down over Ukraine eight years ago, a horrendous crime for which Russia is solely responsible. We continue our resolve to help Ukraine win its war against President Putin’s brutal aggression. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I will continue to urge the Biden admin to change course on this crisis, put policies in place to ensure border security & reform our asylum process so it stops acting like a pull factor into the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This week, I introduced legislation with @SenatorRisch called the Solving the Border Crisis Act to help to secure our southern border by resuming construction of the border wall, increasing staffing for @CBP & ICE, & upholding the rule of law. https://t.co/HgnWyIYoyz — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Right now, we are in the middle of the biggest border crisis in the history of our nation. This is a humanitarian crisis, national security crisis & community safety issue w/ a direct connection to the drug epidemic we see in #Ohio & across the US. The Biden admin must act now. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

That’s why the House must pass the Senate-passed #USICA legislation, which includes the American Security Drone Act and would prohibit US federal agencies from purchasing Chinese-made drones. — PolitiTweet.org
