President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1892, but slavery in some parts of the confederacy did not end until over 2 yrs later. On June 19, 1865, Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas w/the announcement that all slaves were free. https://t.co/yBhk0Kn5rL — PolitiTweet.org

As a Marine, it was a privilege to host the Sergeant Major of the @USMC, Troy Black, in my office yesterday. We talked about the places our service has taken us and what we can do to better serve our active Marines and our veterans. Semper Fi, @USMCSgtMaj. https://t.co/lkTqGKlpQU — PolitiTweet.org

Experts say that $400 billion, HALF of all COVID-19 unemployment benefits, may have been stolen over the past year, much of it by foreign criminals. This is unacceptable & exactly why I called for more oversight over the distribution of funds last year. https://t.co/0UpLxCQ5W1 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud to support the PAWS for Veterans Therapy Act, bipartisan legislation that passed the House last month, which will help connect veterans with PTSD with service dogs. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

A great read from @bellevillenewsd about the impact a PTSD service dog can have on a veteran’s life. These dogs can help veterans like Heather heal and lead healthy, productive lives. (1/2) https://t.co/k76vZwt8gk — PolitiTweet.org

Quality hires in the HR departments are critically important because they set the tone for operations and employee morale, which in turn impacts the care our veterans receive. (2/2) https://t.co/iJGzpKPtHe — PolitiTweet.org

The House passed several veterans bills last night, including my bill, the VA HELP Act. The VA can't provide high-quality care to veterans if they can’t recruit & retain highly qualified staff. My bill would strengthen hiring standards for HR staff at VA medical centers. (1.2) — PolitiTweet.org

4 yrs ago, @SteveScalise was rushed to the hospital after a gunman shot at the Republican baseball team. We didn’t know if he’d make it. But Steve is a fighter. Through his faith & w/his family by his side, he persevered. Despite it all, he’s still a better 2nd baseman than me! https://t.co/4HQrbjUxcj — PolitiTweet.org

While he is shutting down American pipelines, the President gave Putin the green light to finish the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. For years, Russia has worked to undermine American energy production. Not only that, but American energy is cleaner than Russian energy. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Even though POTUS’s Energy Secretary said pipelines are the best way to transport fuel, his admin has pursued policies that kill US energy projects & hand American workers pink slips. Yesterday the company behind the Keystone XL Pipeline was forced to abandon it entirely. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Disappointed my Democrat colleagues refused to support my common sense amendment. We rely on our nation’s truckers to get everything from food to medicine to store shelves. We should not make it so expensive for them to do their jobs that they have to shut down their businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

After praising the work done by our truckers during the pandemic, T&I Committee Dems want to turn around & punish them by raising their insurance costs by nearly 167%. Not only will this put truckers out of business, but means fewer items on shelves & higher prices for consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

VP Harris was named the Biden Administration’s “Border Czar” 76 days ago. Somehow, our “Border Czar” has yet to actually even visit our southern border to see the situation for herself.   Madam Vice President, 170,000 apprehensions a month is no laughing matter. It is a crisis. — PolitiTweet.org
