Those hired to treat & care for our veterans should have a proven record of providing quality health care. I spoke on my bill that ensures this is the case. During my speech, I urged the @VAChair to pass my bill. I’m hopeful that the committee will do so. https://t.co/DdTxJU1MNH — PolitiTweet.org

Iowa’s families, farmers, & small biz owners have waited a long time for Congress to get its act together. But, at long last, Rs and Ds came together on a bipartisan disaster relief package that will deliver desperately-needed aid to folks across the country. My full statement: https://t.co/mo34yexVV1 — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
I often hear from #Iowa parents who struggle to balance family and work; and, our small biz owners who just simply can’t afford to provide paid parental leave. I was glad to host @IvankaTrump and my colleagues today for a productive discussion on paid parental leave. https://t.co/T8jQpiakco — PolitiTweet.org

@DeptofDefense Ensuring our military has resources to defend our nation is a top priority. This includes making sure no dollar received by @DeptofDefense is wasted. I'm proposing a measure—similar to my #COSTAct—requiring fed agencies to put a price tag on projects. https://t.co/4yrbj8teUI — PolitiTweet.org

Would you pay $1,220 for a coffee cup☕️? Probably not, but the @DeptofDefense did—25 times—w/your hard-earned tax dollars. The worst part is, that’s just one example of the Pentagon’s budgetary blunders. That's why I'm giving them my monthly Squeal Award! https://t.co/dUOacqufez — PolitiTweet.org

@VAChair The VA conducted a review of all their providers and found a small number of providers who were hired with revoked licenses. My bill focuses on that small group of providers. It’s a targeted oversight measure, with minimal costs, that will give our veterans peace of mind. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
@VAChair The Ensuring Quality Care for Our Veterans Act ensures that every provider who was hired with a revoked license will have their care scrutinized by a neutral, third party. — PolitiTweet.org

@VAChair Every veteran who was treated by a physician with a revoked license should have their medical care scrutinized by a neutral third-party. That’s exactly what my bill does. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
@VAChair Dr. Schneider never should have been hired to treat our veterans. While the VA reformed its hiring practices, there are still veterans out there who were treated by physicians with revoked licenses but who don’t know if they received bad care. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
@VAChair All of this changed on December 3, 2017. A disturbing report in USA Today found that the VA had knowingly hired providers with revoked medical licenses and who have a history of providing substandard care. One of those providers was Dr. Schneider. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
@VAChair However, in the weeks and months following the surgery, it became clear to Anthony that something was wrong. His health hadn’t improved, and Dr. Schneider just said that it was part of the “symptoms” from the surgery. — PolitiTweet.org

@VAChair Anthony was referred to a neurosurgeon at the Iowa City VA, Dr. Schneider. Dr. Schneider performed surgery and stated he had removed all of the brain tumor. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
@VAChair Today, I want to share the story of Anthony, an #Iowa veteran. In 2017, Anthony was experiencing headaches so he went to the Iowa City VA Medical Center to get an MRI of his head and neck. Anthony’s MRI results came back. Tragically, they indicated he had a brain tumor. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
Soon, I'll be speaking at the @VAChair hearing on my bill, the Ensuring Quality Care for Our Veterans Act, which ensures a third party reviews each case where a veteran was treated by a VA provider who was later found to have a revoked license. Tune in: https://t.co/Qy7wnZMYwt — PolitiTweet.org

(1/2) I’m glad President Trump has nominated Barbara Barrett to be the next Secretary of the @usairforce. It’s important for our military that we have leadership in place. Like every nominee, I look forward to hearing more about Ms. Barrett’s experience and vision for the USAF. — PolitiTweet.org

#Iowans talk to me every day about 2 things: trade & disaster relief. Lifting the 232 tariffs makes a big difference for our farmers & manufacturers & helps us move ahead w/#USMCA. We also need to reach a bipartisan agreement on a disaster relief bill that will help all Americans https://t.co/3IKzEeB9VG — PolitiTweet.org

🥚#Iowa leads the nation in egg production! 🍳 To tell if an egg is raw or hard-cooked, spin it! If it spins easily, it's hard-cooked; if it wobbles, it's raw. 🐓 Hens w/white feathers & earlobes produce white eggs, & hens w/red feathers & earlobes produce brown eggs. https://t.co/oNjov2SU0Y — PolitiTweet.org

.@realDonaldTrump has lifted the 232 steel & aluminum tariffs w/two of our biggest trade partners—Canada & Mexico. Now is the time for @SpeakerPelosi & my colleagues in the House to act on #USMCA.

Today, we're building on our effort to ensure we have the necessary information to better care for our servicemembers and help mitigate these types of injuries. https://t.co/NzUUq82fwC — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
During combat and in training, many of our men and women in uniform are exposed to blasts which can lead to conditions like Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Last year, @SenWarren and I asked the @DeptofDefense to take a hard look at the effects of blast pressure exposure. — PolitiTweet.org
Joni Ernst @SenJoniErnst
I understand the need to tackle sexual misconduct & domestic violence in our military. I'm teaming up w/@SenatorSinema on bipartisan bills that will not only expand support for victims & servicemembers, but focus on preventing wrongdoing in the 1st place. https://t.co/j7q14GppQb — PolitiTweet.org
