The #NDAA is one of the most important bills we pass every year. Historically, we've been able to pass it with bipartisan support – both parties united behind the goal of granting our military the resources it needs to defend our nation. I hope that will hold true this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Some take it for granted that we have the strongest military in the world, but as this 2018 report shows, years of underfunding/budgetary uncertainty left our military under-equipped to meet modern threats. This #NDAA will continue restoring readiness. https://t.co/0u2rx150bI — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

#China & #Russia have been flexing their power and investing in their military – not only to challenge the U.S. & allies but also intimidate neighbors & expand their spheres of influence. This #NDAA will help ensure we're prepared to counter threats posed by other great powers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

The Senate is set to vote on the NDAA later this week. It's thanks to @JimInhofe’s leadership in crafting this excellent #NDAA that it is laser-focused on restoring military readiness & ensuring we're prepared to meet threats posed by major powers like #Russia & #China. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Last night, America lost one of our great civil rights heroes. John Lewis dedicated his life to serving and improving our country. He will be greatly missed. Kimberley and I are praying for his family in their grief. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

To protect against #COVID19, our hospitals, biz, schools, & consumers need dependable access to hand sanitizer. I intro'd a bill to help grant certainty to ethanol, distillers, & other industries that are stepping up to produce hand sanitizer. https://t.co/YpSmHoamdi — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

U.S. communications infrastructure can only be fully secure if our allies have similar safety standards. That's why the UK's ban of Huawei is important & why I intro'd the #NetworkSecurityTradeAct to ensure network security is a priority when negotiating future trade deals. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Good. We know that Huawei 5G tech could have the capability to share private user data with the Chinese government. The U.S. has already banned their tech in our networks — good to see our allies following suit to protect our data from #China. https://t.co/mfhU5mV8oj — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Independence Day from the Black Hills of South Dakota. If you look closely, you can see Mount Rushmore’s big four in the background. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/sR8WZ7oPG7 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Happy #4thofJuly! I am proud to live in a country that's always fought on the side of justice and freedom. In good and hard times, in war and peace – I'm always proud to be an American. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Welcome to South Dakota, Mr. President. I can’t think of a better backdrop for your arrival than #EllsworthAirForceBase, home to some of the most dedicated men and women our military has ever known. https://t.co/LJdSMIU41c — PolitiTweet.org

Grandkids Henley and Hewitt decided to beat the crowd. The faces were fine but the ice cream was a big hit. #MountRushmore https://t.co/shEBaFVEpn — PolitiTweet.org

A great day for our farmers, ranchers, and workers across the country 🇺🇸. Today, the new and improved trade deal between the USA and our two biggest trading partners, Canada & Mexico, goes into effect. The #USMCA will help expand markets for #Americanmade goods & services. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Let me be clear: Any suggestion that Republicans somehow didn’t want a debate on police reform is patently false. We stand ready to act today. Democrats, unfortunately, seem more interested in how this issue can help them in November than actually finding a solution. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

The page gets turned at a shocking speed on Capitol Hill, but let me remind you why we’re considering #NDAA this week and not Senator Scott’s policing reform bill: Democrats filibustered the debate from beginning in the Senate. https://t.co/xVQafrvx44 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

The #NDAA is one of the most important pieces of legislation we pass every year. Historically, we’ve always been able to get it done in a bipartisan fashion. I hope that will hold true this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Consumers believe in America. They know that our country will come back stronger than ever after #COVID19. Step one for a sustainable recovery needs to be keeping people safe. Remember to wear a mask so we don’t lose ground in this fight. https://t.co/FrUKcqsjni — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

China's continued attacks on Hong Kong's autonomy are unacceptable. The Senate is not standing idly by while Beijing tramples on #Hongkonger's freedom. The #bipartisan consensus we saw yesterday sends a powerful signal to #China: the U.S. is watching. https://t.co/l0RkqNhyPL — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Thanks to all the law enforcement officers who are on call to protect our nation’s monuments. And in this quieter moment, for helping to make my grandson’s day. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/NNNNs0CwOD — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

The effects of #COVID19 have further highlighted how powerful a tool telehealth can be now and in the future. Glad to see the @FCC recognizing the clear advantages of this technology and supplying providers in SD with the tools they need to invest more in #telehealth. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator John Thune @SenJohnThune

Large internet & social media companies share content with billions of people globally. Their users deserve to have more up-front information about the companies’ content moderation practices & should have the ability to hold companies accountable for these decisions. — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to work w/ @SenBrianSchatz to hold internet companies accountable & increase transparency in how platforms decide what info is (or is not) shared w/ their billions of users. Our bill, the #PACTact, would strengthen online transparency, accountability, & consumer protection. — PolitiTweet.org
