The Violence Against Women Act shouldn’t be a partisan issue. We need a practical solution to reauthorizing and modernizing VAWA that prioritizes protecting and supporting survivors and punishing abusers. That’s what my bill does. https://t.co/u1wYHBsO3p — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

As a survivor, reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act is personal to me. It’s time we work with a single purpose—not a dozen different motives—and focus on assisting survivors. WATCH: https://t.co/nsS6Opwmeo — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, I sent a letter pushing @FERC to prioritize pipeline shipments of propane to #Iowa and I’m glad to see them taking action. Iowans are counting on propane to dry grain, heat homes, heat livestock barns, and run businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

We also discussed the burden it has on family caregivers, which is why I’m working on a bipartisan bill to provide relief & support for hardworking caregivers in Iowa and across the country. #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth Learn more: https://t.co/lrAxZCQPD3 — PolitiTweet.org

Earlier this year I met with Iowans from the @alzassociation to learn more about their work to fight this disease that affects more than 5.7 million Americans. #ENDALZ https://t.co/nE91bBCko4 — PolitiTweet.org

As a survivor, reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act is one of my top priorities. That’s why this week, I’ll be introducing a reauthorization of VAWA that focuses on solutions—actually getting support and resources to survivors, not political talking points. https://t.co/t1xGkzl4C9 — PolitiTweet.org

Since WWII, countless mothers of our servicemembers have volunteered their efforts to support our troops as part of @bluestarmothers. I’m honored to mark their contributions with a bipartisan bill to recognize February 1st as Blue Star Mothers Day. https://t.co/59WTX8dkuq — PolitiTweet.org

As two female combat veterans serving in the Senate, @SenMcSallyAZ and I discuss our fondest memories from our time in the armed forces. #FightLikeAGirl https://t.co/lyanyNpK2g — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve been working to help increase access to quality broadband because it’s essential for Iowa’s small biz, families, and rural communities to compete in today’s society. I’m glad to see @USDA helping address the digital divide in Iowa’s rural areas. — PolitiTweet.org

I fought hard for year-round E15 to give Iowans more choice at the pump, and it’s clear they are taking advantage of it! 🌽⛽️ — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve consistently heard from Iowans about the insufficient supply of propane needed to dry grain, heat homes, heat livestock barns, and run businesses. @ChuckGrassley & I sent a letter pushing @FERC to prioritize pipeline shipments of propane to #Iowa.

It’s past time we modernize family leave policies to serve the needs of parents & families in today’s world. My FAIR Leave Act addresses some of the shortcomings of the FMLA to provide more comprehensive and effective leave for Iowa families. https://t.co/xKqoQZqs2q — PolitiTweet.org

My prayers are with his family, his friends, and his colleagues on the Court who are grieving his loss. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m deeply saddened by the passing of Chief Justice Mark Cady. He was a devoted public servant who loved the people of our state and the judiciary. Chief Justice Cady’s life was marked by service and he will be missed by so many. — PolitiTweet.org

Adoption offers kids in #Iowa and around the globe hope and a second chance. This #NationalAdoptionMonth, we celebrate the families that choose adoption and give children a place to call home. Thank you! https://t.co/ZUymUpMN4s — PolitiTweet.org

On behalf of #Iowa farmers and producers, I’m continuing to press @EPA to restore the integrity of the #RFS. Rural America and our agriculture community is counting on it. https://t.co/ReVZE9G96y — PolitiTweet.org

Larry Nassar abused hundreds of young athletes & caused untold pain. My bill with @ChuckGrassley will increase oversight & accountability @TeamUSA, help prevent all forms of abuse, & move us down the road to rebuilding trust within our Olympic community. https://t.co/lsQqOeW3Pg — PolitiTweet.org

It’s past time we modernize our family & medical leave policies to serve the needs of parents and families in today’s world. This bipartisan bill is a simple fix to ensure married couples are afforded equal family and medical leave benefits. https://t.co/xKqoQZqs2q — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

In September, I met w/@POTUS at the White House and we brokered a great deal for Iowa's farmers & ethanol producers. @EPAAWheeler’s supplemental rule is not the same proposal we discussed at the White House. I joined @JeffAngeloRadio to discuss the fight to uphold the #RFS. https://t.co/nid71b2cCw — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Reminder to all Iowans: The deadline to submit public comments on the @EPA’s supplemental rule is Nov. 29. 15 billion gallons means 15 billion gallons, and Iowa’s farmers and producers are counting on it. Express your support for upholding the #RFS here: https://t.co/R3MA4qz3s8 — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Iowans in every corner of our state know this trade deal is a win for our economy. It’s time we pass #USMCAnow — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to Bryan Sievers from Stockton for testifying at last week’s @SenateAgGOP hearing on the #FarmBill’s rural development programs. As chair of the subcmte on rural dev, I appreciated his insight on ways to increase the effectiveness of @USDA's efforts to grow rural America. https://t.co/aJogE0Wodh — PolitiTweet.org

Last spring’s disastrous flooding continues to impact our communities, including those near my hometown in Southwest #Iowa. I’m committed to working with the Army Corps to ensure these communities have the protection they need. https://t.co/vuyKL6El4F — PolitiTweet.org

The #RFS is essential to #Iowa’s economy, and our farmers and producers are counting on @EPA to ensure that 15 billion gallons means 15 billion gallons. https://t.co/DKkzh3A7M8 — PolitiTweet.org

The years I spent serving our country in military uniform were some of the best of my life. I was honored to speak at the Mt. Ayr Community School’s Veterans Day program today about the values I learned in the military and strive to carry with me day-in and day-out. https://t.co/UZ18gR16B2 — PolitiTweet.org
