One of the greatest honors I have is the opportunity to present Southern IL veterans & their families w/the medals they've earned for their service.

I’m hopeful that this project will bring much-needed jobs and economic growth to Cairo and Alexander County. — PolitiTweet.org

Every year, because of its location at the confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, nearly 80% of all inland barge traffic in the United States passes Cairo. This week, I toured the future site of the Cairo Port with Larry Klein from the Cairo Public Utility Company. https://t.co/IQzq51Pfy7 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

We must remain vigilant in the fight against COVID-19. However, universal mask mandates are not the answer. We’ve learned over the past year that local officials, when armed with accurate safety information, can & should be empowered to make decisions... (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to Todd Roach & DeAnna Clark from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society for stopping by my O’Fallon office! We discussed how the 21st Century Cures Act has improved research efforts for MS & ways Congress can continue to support the work being done to find a cure. https://t.co/Kh1np7MtCp — PolitiTweet.org

Limiting #LikeKindExchanges would mean higher taxes for the family-owned farms and small businesses that are so crucial to our rural communities. This week, 87 of my colleagues and I wrote to President Biden to urge him to abandon this effort. You can read our letter here ↓ https://t.co/TAWITZcuEy — PolitiTweet.org

I introduced the bipartisan Transition for Success Act today to expand access to this program to ensure that these military men & women can receive the support & training they need to gain a new skillset & successfully transition to civilian life. (2/2) https://t.co/euMu12Afdd — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

The Department of Defense’s SkillBridge program provides servicemembers with valuable job training as they transition to civilian life. However, as of right now, many National Guard and Reserve members are unable to participate in the program. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

My grandfather handed me my first copy of Leatherneck Magazine when I was 10 years old and I've been reading it ever since. 50 years later, I was honored to be interviewed about my time in the @USMC and my path to Congress for their July 2021 edition. #SemperFi https://t.co/H5yzvNrzYK — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

Over 80M acres of our national forests are overgrown, fire-prone & in need of active management. Wildfires have burned over 2.68M acres in 2021 alone. I cosponsored the Resilient Federal Forests Act to give federal agencies the tools to properly manage forests. #ResilientForests https://t.co/FC6W1uqJAI — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

Spoke on the House floor yesterday about my bill, the Veterans’ Agricultural Apprenticeship Act, which will help connect out-of-work vets w/farmers who are in need of on-the-farm labor. It’s a win-win for vets looking to gain new skills & farmers looking to grow their operations. https://t.co/yXs21TRg44 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

I’m excited to launch our 2021 Congressional App Challenge today! @CongressionalAC is a great opportunity for students to pursue their interests in STEM and hone their coding skills. Visit https://t.co/mkuVGE2Ayo for more information and to register. https://t.co/PKF8CCm7Z5 — PolitiTweet.org

A friend to many and loved by his family, he will be dearly missed. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

I spoke on the House floor to celebrate the life of my friend, Chuck Poettker, who recently passed away unexpectedly. Chuck dedicated his life to building something of value for others – whether it was through supporting his employees or giving back to his Metro East community. https://t.co/v2vylY3HMn — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

No one is more hardworking & dedicated to getting the job done than our nation’s vets. I'm proud to introduce the bipartisan Veterans’ Agricultural Apprenticeship Act, which will help better connect vets w/ farmers who have shortages of on-the-farm labor. https://t.co/uMYt2JP1kR — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

American taxpayer dollars should never be used to fund abortions. For 40 yrs, the Hyde Amendment has ensured they are not. But President Biden & Speaker Pelosi want to change that. I took to the House floor to request a vote on HR 18, which will make the Hyde Amendment permanent. https://t.co/vaALkXVugy — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

DHS employees, including ICE and CBP agents, play a critical role in ensuring the safety and security of our nation. I’m proud to join 75 of my colleagues in cosponsoring H.Res. 530 to show our support for these brave men and women. https://t.co/JOEglWw9BU — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

Another month, another record number of encounters at the southern border. Yet several of my Democrat colleagues are calling for Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs & Border Protection (CBP) & even the entire Department of Homeland Security (DHS), to be defunded. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

I was honored to present Robert Mueller from Chester with a flag flown over the U.S. Capitol & a certificate of recognition in honor of his 100th birthday. A member of the #GreatestGeneration, Robert served in the 313th Engineer Combat Battalion, 88th Division during WWII. https://t.co/31C95hWpNo — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

I sent a letter to the Secretary of the VA with 41 of my colleagues urging a reversal of this decision. https://t.co/Og0SS2jGlG — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Mike Bost @RepBost

Thousands of vets are suffering from toxic exposure & many others are waiting months for care b/c of COVID-19. Instead of addressing these critical issues, VA has decided to prioritize beginning the process to offer gender transition surgeries through the VA healthcare system. — PolitiTweet.org

For over 40 years, the life-saving Hyde Amendment has protected Americans from being forced to fund abortions through their tax dollars. Until now. This year, President Biden and Washington Democrats have stripped it from their FY 2021 federal funding bill. #HydeSavesLives https://t.co/FozTZ9lRcX — PolitiTweet.org
