This morning I joined America's Newsroom to discuss the recent news with Apple & the Pensacola shooting and the economic impact of COVID-19 on the nation. Didn't have a chance to tune in? Watch our conversation here → https://t.co/9lDJ2uCZTC — PolitiTweet.org

I look forward to hearing today’s testimonies and more about our overall strategy to help the most vulnerable industries in our economy as we continue to respond to COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org

@stevenmnuchin1, does Treasury have a prioritized timeline to rollout the rest of the $500 billion in emergency lending under the CARES Act? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

What flexibility can be added to the Main Street Lending program to allow for participation by special purpose entities, like commercial real estate, that otherwise could qualify? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

The CARES Act specifically included nonprofits for emergency Main Street lending. Where is @thefederalreserve on establishing a process for those organizations to access this funding? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

I’ve spoken out to @thefederalreserve on unique difficulties facing oil & gas, especially in my state. Given the need to ensure the industry can withstand & is there to support the economy as it recovers, what other relief or flexibility in existing programs are being considered? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

The Senate Banking Committee is hearing from @federalreserve Chairman Jerome Powell and @stevenmnuchin1 as it holds its first review on the $2 trillion coronavirus relief funding. Although I don’t sit on the Banking Committee, there are a few questions I hope to see answered. — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, I released a new episode of the Breakdown featuring special guest Assistant Attorney General Eric Dreiband. The episode discusses constitutional rights during a crisis & how the Justice Department & Congress work to protect freedom of religion under stay-at-home orders — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

Today, Oklahomans gathered to celebrate the life of Sgt. Marshal Roberts. We will forever be indebted to his service and his sacrifice to protect our nation. #NationalArmedForcesDay — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

🚨 Oklahoma veterans, don't forget to tune into @VAVetBenefits Tele-Town Hall this afternoon at 4:00pm CST. Hear an update from Under Secretary Lawrence about the VBA's response to COVID-19 and Program updates. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

As we observe #NationalPoliceWeek, we celebrate every active and retired police officer and their service to our state. Thank you for all you do to keep us safe. https://t.co/ifglgZvw4U — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

Oklahoma's police officers stand on the frontlines to defend and protect our communities. They make our communities safer, care for our neighbors & step up to serve those around them in times of uncertainty. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

Dollar General Literacy Foundation’s generosity is a great example of how we can all work together to improve the lives of those around us. We in Oklahoma are especially grateful for your heart to give & we’re excited to see the difference you make in our state. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

During difficult times as these, Congress can help organizations continue to do good and better serve their communities. My Universal Charitable Giving Act with @ChrisCoons would significantly increase the $300 federal tax deduction for charitable giving provided in the CARES Act — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

Thank you @DollarGeneral Literacy Foundation for your generosity in helping Oklahomans. With an additional $155,000 in literacy grants, Oklahoma nonprofits will be better equipped to serve Oklahomans and their communities. — PolitiTweet.org

This bill is hardly a legitimate proposal, it’s purely messaging. America deserves more. I hope my Democrat colleagues will work w/ Republicans as Congress continues to respond #COVID19. There is plenty of work that needs to be done, but we do that by working together. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

The bill drafted with ❌no bipartisan negotiations 📘a Democrat wish list 🚪only House Dem leadership is far from bipartisan. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

I was rather shocked when the House released their 1,800 page bill dealing with a lot of issues that are not COVID-19 related. If you’re proposing an additional $3 TRILLION—we should work together like the Senate did to pass the CARES Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

What have we done through the CARES Act: ✅provide; 56,476 loans to Oklahoma businesses ✅$1.2 billion to Oklahoma to distribute to cities and local governments ✅ provides additional assistance through Pandemic Unemployment Assistanve to Oklahomans who dont normally quality — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

Speaker Pelosi’s bill is a Democrat $3 trillion wishlist, not a #COVID19 relief bill. What’s included: ❌68 mentions of cannibas ❌makes illegal immigrants eligible for stimulus payments ❌changes voting laws through spring of next year Oklahomans want solutions, not politics. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

Thank you, for the way you serve your neighbors, your communities, and your state. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

As we’ve responded to #COVID19, they’ve been on the frontlines serving whether it’s managing testing, food banks, or blood drives. They continue to serve by providing support as we move through the phases of reopening Oklahoma. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. James Lankford @SenatorLankford

During #MilitaryAppreciationMonth, I want to give a special thank you to @OKGuard. The Oklahoma National Guard is a division of our military that serves both our country and our communities. — PolitiTweet.org
