If you’re a farmer or rancher and your operation has felt the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, you can apply for direct relief through @USDA’s Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP). More information on the program here: https://t.co/sxe2gboIyy — PolitiTweet.org

Ellsworth Air Force Base will be the home of the first two B-21 squadrons, one of the most advanced weapons systems that we have ever developed. This puts Ellsworth on the map for at least the next 50 years. https://t.co/6h2qOVCCG9 — PolitiTweet.org

We must recognize the criminal act causing the loss of George Floyd’s life and stand together seeking justice. We should all keep his family in our prayers. Our nation can do better. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

The rioting which has occurred in many of our communities does not represent the heart of the people that call these communities home, but rather in many cases radical outsiders trying to further divide us. We cannot let this happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

When crimes like this occur, it is important that we continue to speak out. We must remember that violence and rioting are not the answer. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

Like many Americans, I am saddened and angered by the death of George Floyd. Watching the video displaying such reckless, unwarranted brutality at the hands of law enforcement made me sick to my stomach. Those responsible should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. — PolitiTweet.org

As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, making sure the B-21 Raider program is fully funded and delivered on time has been, and will continue to be, a top priority for me. https://t.co/4tY7BqLV7z — PolitiTweet.org

The reality is, our top industries in South Dakota – agriculture and tourism – rely on these programs to be successful. Here’s what South Dakota ag and tourism leaders had to say about our support for the H-2A and H-2B guest worker programs. https://t.co/dXQM8y4RBt — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

A recent letter I signed with eight other colleagues caught national attention this week. These national stories made a number of false claims about the seasonal H-2A and H-2B guest worker programs. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, our economy was soaring. Jobs were being created, unemployment was at record lows and wages were rising. We believe that as soon as we can begin to fully reopen, our economy will come back stronger than ever. Read more here: https://t.co/Bb5gjf5cZe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

That bill is one part of our plan to address cattle market pricing inconsistencies. We will also keep working toward mandatory country-of-origin labeling and a DOJ investigation into the meat packers. Read our op-ed here: https://t.co/z4uNAVztAA — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

COVID-19 has put our nation’s food supply chain to the test. The last thing we want to see during a global pandemic is a major food shortage. This crisis highlights the urgent need to pass our legislation that allows for sales of meat and poultry across state lines. — PolitiTweet.org

37 Planned Parenthood affiliates wrongly applied for and received $80M in PPP loans meant to help small businesses keep employees on the payroll during this pandemic. I urge SBA to fully investigate and take necessary action. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

I’m glad to see @realDonaldTrump take action to reduce insulin costs for seniors. Lowering prescription drug costs continues to be a top priority for me. I’ll continue working across the aisle to make sure life-saving prescription drugs are more affordable for all South Dakotans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

Joined @SenTomCotton in calling for a DOJ investigation into why and how Planned Parenthood accessed PPP loans despite knowing they’re ineligible. — PolitiTweet.org

The past year has been the toughest one we’ve faced. We’re grateful for all the prayers & support we’ve received. We feel very fortunate for the care we’ve received from our doctors both at Mayo & here in SD. Thank you to all the folks that continue to keep those prayers coming! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds

Last week, Jean and I traveled to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., for Jean’s 90-day post-radiation checkup. After a series of important tests, we are thankful to share the news that Jean’s cancer treatment has remained successful! — PolitiTweet.org
