As part of @AARP's Livable Communities initiative, The City of Afton and HOME, Inc. in Des Moines have been awarded grants to support their community improvement projects. Thank you AARP for investing in our cities, especially as Iowans work to navigate the impacts of #COVID19. — PolitiTweet.org

As a combat veteran, mother, and U.S. senator, I’ve seen the remarkable contributions women make across Iowa and our country. This #WomensEqualityDay is an opportunity to commemorate the #19thAmendment and the role women continue to play in shaping the success of our nation. — PolitiTweet.org

Every time I visit the @ISUResearchPark, I'm blown away by its cutting edge facilities and top-tier talent. Today’s ribbon cutting ceremony marks another step forward for the research park as it continues to expand, creating new jobs and growing Iowa's economy. https://t.co/TcRKRk3R7c — PolitiTweet.org

I joined @SBA_Iowa to present @SBAgov’s Small Business Person of the Year award to Sabetha Mumm, owner of Dance Vision in Johnston. Congratulations on your achievement, and thank you for your leadership and all that you do for Iowans in the community! https://t.co/ht05i0NRrT — PolitiTweet.org

Opportunity Zones are a promising tool for driving investment in Iowa’s distressed communities, and I’ve seen the success of them in our state. The Trump Admin is continuing to build on this effort by using federal resources to help folks in underserved communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Iowans in Linn County who are out of work due to the #derecho can apply for Disaster Unemployment Assistance with @iowaworkforce between now and September 24, 2020. Click the link for more info on eligibility. https://t.co/0VDyiVMaeT — PolitiTweet.org

.@USDA has announced that China will be increasing their purchases of corn and soybeans from the U.S. While this is good news, we must continue to hold China to their commitment to buy our ag products and provide market certainty for Iowa’s farmers and producers. — PolitiTweet.org

The Iowa #Derecho Relief Center is accepting donations for Iowans in need at 5001 1st Avenue in Cedar Rapids between 8am and 7pm. Today, @Z1029 will be holding a pet food drive and @IAGivingCrew will serve dinner at 5:30 PM. Click the link for more details.https://t.co/6R23xJHOJZ — PolitiTweet.org

After urging @FHFA to rescind the harmful fee that would punish Iowa homeowners struggling during #COVID19, the agency has announced they are delaying the fee until Dec. 1, 2020. While this is a good first step, I'm continuing to push for the fee to be eliminated completely. — PolitiTweet.org

Iowa’s ag community, including our local farmers, has faced supply chain disruptions throughout #COVID19. Thankfully, @IAGovernor has allocated funds from the CARES Act I supported to help our schools purchase local produce & ensure our kids have access to adequate nutrition. — PolitiTweet.org

Following the report that a @DeptofDefense senior leader had a history of sexually harassing women, I’m calling on the Pentagon for answers. https://t.co/wVzkuzx1CY — PolitiTweet.org

Elderly or disabled Iowans in Polk County who are in need of assistance for removing #derecho debris should call 2-1-1. Polk County Emergency Management will connect these folks with volunteer organizations who are able to help. — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Spoke with @IAGovernor this morning to discuss #derecho recovery. We’ll continue working together to support our #smallbiz, individuals, and families. Stay strong, Iowa! https://t.co/ETW4Ay4zFD — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

#COVID19 has brought financial hardship on homeowners across Iowa and the country, and folks are looking to secure savings by refinancing their mortgage. @FannieMae & @FreddieMac's new fee would punish families pursuing relief, and I'm calling on them to rescind it immediately. https://t.co/NKcSx29Bhn — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

In Cedar Rapids today, @SBAJovita met with small business owners to hear how they have been impacted by the #derecho and #COVID19. Thank you for visiting our state as we continue working to ensure Iowa's #smallbiz have the support they need during this challenging time. https://t.co/yKmhKqetdd — PolitiTweet.org

Once, women were told they had no place in government; but now there are 127 women serving in Congress, which is more than ever before. It is truly an honor to work alongside so many remarkable women who come from different fields and backgrounds. https://t.co/rHTU7NBRVx — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

It’s been a rough go following the #derecho, but Iowans are resolute and continue to help one another during this difficult time. At the federal level, I’ll keep fighting to make sure folks have the support they need as we rebuild. https://t.co/CMFe7OtXvu — PolitiTweet.org

While the national media might fail to do its job, Iowa’s local news reporters and journalists have been working around the clock to cover this derecho. They’ve told the heart wrenching stories of loss, and they’ve depicted the widespread damage. https://t.co/cZLopCmRM6 — PolitiTweet.org

Providing children with adequate nutrition is key for supporting their well-being and academic success. I’m calling on ⁦@USDA⁩ to continue granting our schools flexibility to ensure Iowa’s children are receiving the meals they depend on. https://t.co/18YFpQJU98 — PolitiTweet.org

This is unacceptable. Sexual harassment has no place in our society, let alone the federal workplace. There are too many gaps here – we need transparency from the Pentagon. https://t.co/ZeQwZSyuLC — PolitiTweet.org
