Medical residents can now train at Montana’s 48 Critical Access Hospitals and at hundreds more across the country—helping ensure health care is more accessible in communities across rural America. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

If we want to see more doctors in rural America, we’ve got to train them in rural America. Thrilled the Administration adopted my proposal to do just that. https://t.co/574PrkWXz9 — PolitiTweet.org

Majority Leader Mitch McConnell should call the Senate back to session to address bipartisan background check legislation that would help keep guns out of the hands of court adjudicated mentally ill, criminals and terrorists. 2/2 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m devastated for the families of the victims in Dayton and El Paso. Shootings like these are becoming far too common and have no place in a civilized society. 1/2 — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to all the sailors and Marines, and their families. They represent Montana proudly in the water by defending us around the world. Now let’s get this ship up and running! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

The ship’s motto “Big Sky Over Troubled Waters” is fitting for a vessel that’s at the cutting edge of modern navel technology. — PolitiTweet.org

This commissioning has been a long time coming, and it’s finally here thanks in large part to the hard work of the Billings community. — PolitiTweet.org

The #USSBillings is a testament to Montana’s long tradition of military service. It’s a highly effective, lethal, and adaptable force—just like its sponsor, my wife, Sharla. https://t.co/vgq34KSFT8 — PolitiTweet.org

The average SNAP benefit for a family of three in Montana is just 89¢ per person per meal. That’s not enough to cover the cost of a meal, and yet policies out of Washington, DC are recklessly stripping away that little bit of help for families in need. We've got to stop it. https://t.co/8TQDASL2WT — PolitiTweet.org

Wildfires can be devastating. The last thing folks recovering from the aftermath of a fire need to worry about is filing their taxes. My bill will help Montanans by giving them more time and flexibility to file so they can focus on what matters most – safety and recovery. https://t.co/a0BamnwAsC — PolitiTweet.org

Folks in Montana have shown Washington the way — now it’s time for Congress to follow Montana’s lead. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

There’s no reason why we cannot make smart investments in working families, our children’s education, and 21st century infrastructure without bankrupting the future for our kids and grandkids. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

It is possible to be fiscally responsible without cutting working folks off at the knees — I negotiated and passed a balanced budget while serving as the President of the Montana Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Spending is about priorities. It’s clear that Congress’ priorities are out of whack. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

These same colleagues that added this 2 trillion dollars of debt are now arguing we don’t have enough money to provide for our veterans, pay for Medicare, Social Security, and other programs that protect hundreds of thousands of Montanans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

They promised this tax giveaway would pay for itself — it did not. In fact, it tacked 2 trillion dollars into the national debt. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

My Republican colleagues passed a partisan tax giveaway that was drafted behind closed doors with no public input form Montanans. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Our debt is not skyrocketing because we are spending it on things we need like updates infrastructure or investments in education — it’s skyrocketing because of irresponsible spending. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

The bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget projects that this Administration’s policies will add 4 trillion dollars to the debt over the next ten years. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

This week, we will vote on a bill that swipes Washington’s credit card to the tune of about 250 billion dollars over the next two years — dollars are coming from the pockets of our kids and grandkids. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

As usual, Washington could learn a lot from Montana. — PolitiTweet.org

Folks in Montana are resilient and resourceful — they know how to live within their means. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

As I travel across Montana, I hear from folks who work tirelessly everyday to make ends meet — families facing the ever-rising costs of housing, healthcare, and other basic necessities. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

I’m headed to the Senate floor in a few moments to discuss how Montana common sense can help solve our skyrocketing national debt. Tune in HERE ➡️ https://t.co/S215HKxj00 — PolitiTweet.org
