In Oklahoma, the #NDAA funds: → KC-46 programs in Tinker & Altus → T-7 Red Hawk development in Enid → munition plant construction projects in McAlester → pallet & integration management systems in Lawton-Fort Sill — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

What’s in the bill? → A pay raise for troops → Funding to help licenses move from state to state for military spouses → Ensures we won’t have another BRAC round of base closings → Provides additional supervision for military housing — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

For the 60th year in a row, Congress will fulfill its duty to pass a bipartisan defense bill. The #NDAA supports our military community in Oklahoma and support for their families. https://t.co/2GBv0o3F3S — PolitiTweet.org

Beijing will have consequences for this overreach. The US should use available tools including sanctions against any leader in the CPC implementing Hong Kong security measures. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

One country, two systems. That doesn’t work when people don’t have the ability to speak freely, petition the government or peacefully protest. We started seeing this within minutes of the law being signed as pro-democracy leaders quit in fear of the new laws. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

China has proved it can't be trusted to uphold commitments. They agreed to 50 years of autonomy for #HongKong. Beijing’s new security law impedes Hong Kong’s ability to remain autonomous & is a clear approach by communist China to increase power & take control of the territory. — PolitiTweet.org

Cindy & I are praying for the @TulsaPolice officers injured in yesterday's shooting. As the conversation on defunding the police continues, this tragedy serves as an unfortunate reminder of the sacrifices officers make to protect us.

Forcing the Uighurs & other minority populations to use birth control, have abortions, & sterilizations in an attempt to reduce the population is a clear human rights violation. If Beijing fails to immediately end these practices, there should be consequences from the US & the UN — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

It is Congress’s responsibility to fund the government. If we fail, Congress should be held accountable. Gov. shutdowns impede military readiness & put an undue burden on service members & their families. Service members shouldn’t have to worry about putting food on the table. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

I offered 2 amendments to the FY 2021 NDAA: the Taxpayers Right to Know Act & Prevent Gov. Shutdown Act The amendments → increase transparency of federal programs/spending → protect taxpayer dollars → prevent costly shutdowns & take away the burden on defense community — PolitiTweet.org

🚨The application deadline for the #PPP is TOMORROW. #PPP has provided over $5.4 BILLION dollars to more than 63,600 small businesses in Oklahoma. These loans helped our small businesses stay afloat & allowed Oklahomans to maintain their livelihoods when they needed help the most — PolitiTweet.org

This decision prioritizes the abortion industry over the health and lives of women and preborn children. We have basic medical standards for a reason, abortion clinics shouldn’t be exempt from those. — PolitiTweet.org

Tulsa saw the worst of racial hatred. As we near the 100th anniversary of the 1921 Race Massacre, this park will show America the best of humanity, helping people overcome division & move forward in racial harmony. Thank you for recognizing this important part of Tulsa's history. — PolitiTweet.org

It's frustrating Democrats wouldn't even engage & debate the #JUSTICEAct. There is widespread agreement on 70% of bill so it's shocking they weren't open to amending it. We all want the same end result, we just have different ways of getting there. We need constructive dialogue. https://t.co/68R9SOrGlH — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

How many times do we have to go through this journey before we finally do something? It's unfortunate Senate Democrats would rather prolong a problem & make it political & delay justice for families who want this solved. Debate & amend the bill.

Today we missed an opportunity to increase funding for body-worn cameras, ban chokeholds, and provide greater accountability and transparency for local law enforcement. The American people deserve better. — PolitiTweet.org

Blocking the Senate from even debating the #JUSTICEAct and demanding that the Senate only take up Speaker Pelosi’s police reform bill, that has not even been voted on yet in the House, is unjust to every American. — PolitiTweet.org
