Thanks to the leadership of @realdonaldtrump and @SecAzar, Iowa will receive over $4M to expand access to opioid treatment and prevention services in our communities—bringing us one step closer to overcoming this crisis. https://t.co/KRpdd2TpDo — PolitiTweet.org

My HAVEN Act will help protect the economic security and well-being of veterans and their families who rely on disability benefits and may be experiencing financial hardship. Thank you @realdonaldtrump for signing this important bill into law. https://t.co/qRPavIeXGn — PolitiTweet.org

This morning, I joined @ChuckGrassley and employers from the @IowaBizCouncil to discuss workforce challenges, efforts to reduce student debt, and the need to pass #USMCA. https://t.co/BXkJzrj5qq — PolitiTweet.org

I continued to travel across the state on my #99CountyTour this August. Some highlights: ✅ held 11 town halls ✅ made 37 other visits and county tour stops ✅ had 3 bills signed into law ✅ met and spoke with thousands of Iowans https://t.co/DqN3kmu9MF — PolitiTweet.org

She had been struggling to renew it and reached out to us. Our office was able to assist in resolving the problem. Iowa’s workforce is lucky to have you Veena! https://t.co/5h1ItxFsj9 — PolitiTweet.org

In between #99CountyTour stops last week, I had a pretty amazing surprise visit! Veena Bidarahalli-Hublikar stopped by to say thanks for the help she received from my office with her employment authorization document (EAD). — PolitiTweet.org

Growing up on a farm is a special experience, & it’s crucial we support our farmers so future generations have the same opportunity. At Nieuwenhuis Farm in O’Brien Co., we discussed the #RFS & the need to bring transparency to EPA’s small refinery exemption process. #99CountyTour https://t.co/TuuHHW6xzp — PolitiTweet.org

Always great to be in Emmet County! Thanks to everyone who came out to my town hall meeting in Estherville. #99CountyTour https://t.co/kYRXX29VW1 — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve had a lot of jobs over the years, but none have been as tasty as making biscuits at @Hardees! Happy #LaborDay! https://t.co/F1Sq4mkVng — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks for having me! — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

As I’ve crisscrossed the state on my #99CountyTour, Iowans have made it clear they want the #USMCAnow. The hardworking pork producers I met with in Osceola County had that same message. Let’s get this trade deal across the finish line. https://t.co/N3sC3vQCwj — PolitiTweet.org

With the school year just beginning, I really appreciated having students from Spirit Lake High School at my town hall yesterday in Dickinson County. We had great conversations on a number of issues. Thanks for coming, and I wish you all a great year! #99CountyTour https://t.co/d9s9ShvPRU — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

At my town hall in Algona today, I spoke with folks in Kossuth County about my effort to incentivize wind energy job development and training, for everyone from our aspiring young students to our brave veterans, here in Iowa and around the nation. #99CountyTour https://t.co/GaHtOlDUuw — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Holding town halls in our most populated counties and our more rural areas is crucial to understanding what affects ALL Iowans. Yesterday in Hancock County we had another informative town hall with questions on trade, #RFS, Rx drug prices, & other important issues. #99CountyTour https://t.co/1KfJ2HHQxZ — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

With record low unemployment, Iowa businesses are eager to hire—and that means we need to find ways to continue expanding our workforce. At a roundtable with leaders in Iowa’s tech industry today in Ames, we discussed innovative ways to tackle this challenge. https://t.co/9RUcPTqGSH — PolitiTweet.org

Ankeny has a brand new Kwik Star, one of about 400 locations in the Midwest that offer E15 year-round! ⛽️🌽 https://t.co/QzvTvrubVV — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s one sweet way to get a firsthand look at an Iowa small business: baking apple fritters at The Bakery Unlimited in Madison County! Thanks to Marsha for the lesson and to the other @nfib_ia small biz owners who joined for our policy discussion. #99CountyTour https://t.co/vuaLvIoaWV — PolitiTweet.org

Sen Isakson has led a career embodying the best qualities of a true statesman. He’s been a tireless advocate for veterans & a great example of what it means to work across the aisle to get things done. He’ll be missed in the halls of the Senate; & we’re wishing him the very best! — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Both the RFS & Biodiesel Tax Credit help ensure companies like Bunge continue to offer good-paying jobs & investment opportunities right here in #Iowa. It was great to be in Council Bluffs to meet w/employees & local farmers about ways we can support our renewable fuels industry. https://t.co/cGt9bmfKUD — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

While we’ve started delivering relief to southwest Iowa from this year’s devastating floods, we’ve got more work to do. At my town hall meeting today in Fremont County, I discussed my work to improve the Army Corps’ flood control efforts. #99CountyTour https://t.co/LkKaJn7rzF — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Iowa is a leader in renewable energy, and that’s due in large part to places like Southwest Iowa Solar Farm in Adams County. Thanks to Zach & the rest of the team who gave me an awesome tour. #99CountyTour https://t.co/RX5S4USptk — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

That’s why I’m urging the Pentagon to pull the plug on these purchases, so we’re not only saving hard-earned tax dollars but standing up to cyberattacks from China, and other bad actors. #MakeEmSqueal https://t.co/QXZyydGCiE https://t.co/kWkewFq5G6 — PolitiTweet.org

Spending millions of taxpayer money on computers, printers, and other tech equipment with known cybersecurity risks just doesn’t make sense and threatens to undermine our national security. — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Iowans know what’s best for Iowa. As I continue on my #99CountyTour for 2019, crisscrossing the state, visiting and talking with folks, and hosting town halls, I remain focused on hearing from Iowans and bringing those ideas to Washington. https://t.co/tbtFTqBNeo — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

John McCain was a dear friend, colleague, and patriot. He challenged all of us to be the best of ourselves, and never lost sight of the bigger picture. I miss him, but his legacy will continue to promote a better America, and world. https://t.co/G2bBtpSIp4 — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Since Iowans elected me to the Senate, I’ve held town halls across the state in some of our largest cities & smallest towns. There is no better way to truly hear from folks across the state and to get a firsthand understanding of what is on their minds. https://t.co/lpcQYNh0Et — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

You probably know about most of #Iowa’s hidden treasures, but you might be surprised by some of the attractions my colleagues have in their home states, like Tennessee’s big foot and South Carolina’s lizard man! https://t.co/zMayAxHBp3 — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

As a member of @SmallBizCmte, it’s important to hear directly from Iowa’s small businesses, like Worthy Brewery in Northwood, about what policies help them succeed. Plus you can’t beat a local Iowa craft beer! Thx for having me Friday for a cold one. Cheers!🍻#99CountyTour https://t.co/MIOD4BQj4P — PolitiTweet.org

Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst

Today in Mitchell County, I met with folks from @IAGovernor’s Office of Drug Control Policy and local law enforcement to get an update on the work they’re doing to combat drug trafficking. #99CountyTour https://t.co/4pku9WZgbN — PolitiTweet.org
