Pleased to see the @FMCSA implement my DRIVE Safe Act, which passed in our bipartisan infrastructure package. This pilot program not only helps alleviate supply chain stalls, but it also provides new workforce development opportunities for young drivers. https://t.co/APLQKnvyub — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the Senate began debate on the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Our democracy is stronger when we ensure every eligible American’s voice is heard, regardless of who they vote for. I’m urging all of my colleagues to protect voting rights. — PolitiTweet.org

Exciting news: Montana is getting $225 million from our bipartisan infrastructure law to fix our outdated bridges. By investing in these urgently-needed upgrades, we'll create jobs, grow our economy, and make it safer and easier to get around the state. https://t.co/s8emszRRCc — PolitiTweet.org

Secure access to clean drinking water is essential for economic development in rural America. With our bipartisan investments now flowing to Montana, we can finally modernize the critical water infrastructure our state needs to keep our economy afloat. https://t.co/avRRuoOmi1 — PolitiTweet.org

Martin Luther King Jr. left a remarkable legacy of peace, equality, and justice for all people—and there's never been a more important time to fight for his vision. Dr. King taught us that our nation is strongest when every voice is heard, especially at the ballot box. #MLKDay https://t.co/nmBeNh0vWY — PolitiTweet.org

This pandemic isn't going to go away on its own, folks. As cases surge, your best protection from the virus, from hospitalization, and from prolonging this crisis is to get fully vaccinated and boosted. Find a safe, free, and effective shot near you at https://t.co/2w2Ti97AU2. — PolitiTweet.org

The American Rescue Plan is powering our economic recovery from this pandemic. Whether it's creating jobs with new infrastructure projects or keeping schools and businesses open with critical resources like testing, the Rescue Plan's positive impact can be seen across Montana. — PolitiTweet.org

DEADLINE: At midnight tonight, the ACA Marketplace open enrollment period will close. 4 in 5 Montanans can find a health insurance plan for less than $10 a month thanks to the American Rescue Plan. Don't miss out on a year of affordable coverage—head to https://t.co/c7GyBtWVwC. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

BIG news for the Treasure State: The first round of funding for the Milk River Project from our infrastructure bill is now on its way. Our Northern Montana communities have needed this critical irrigation upgrade for decades, and I'm proud we're finally getting it done. — PolitiTweet.org

January is already National Volunteer Blood Donor Month due to typical drop-offs after the holidays, but we need to step up in an even bigger way this January. If you're healthy and able, please consider giving blood today: https://t.co/KfQiyy1aFP — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

In yesterday's @IndianCommittee meeting, I urged state governments to better coordinate with Tribes to effectively implement the infrastructure investments in high-speed internet. We worked hard to secure those funds—but it won't mean a doggone thing if we don't work together. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

🆕 An additional 9 Montana school districts will receive this crucial support in the next wave of funding. Proud to have secured this funding as we work hard to close the homework gap for Montana students. — PolitiTweet.org

Always a pleasure to have the Montana Grain Growers Association in Washington. Production agriculture is vital to our economy and our communities in the Treasure State, and as a grain grower myself, I'll always fight for Montana's producers. https://t.co/ztJoy1EzUw — PolitiTweet.org

It's no secret that consolidation in the ag industry is putting family farmers and ranchers out of business, hurting consumers, and jeopardizing our nation's food security. I've got a number of bipartisan bills that'll improve market transparency and competition. Take a look: https://t.co/FTao4yoAG7 — PolitiTweet.org

Nothing is more important than our democracy. Nothing is more important than a country that is run by the people, for the people. I hope my colleagues join me in standing up for every eligible American’s right to have their voices heard at the ballot box. https://t.co/PzpTtz7T0W — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Great meeting today with Meaghan Lee-Moriarity, director of the Missoula Vet Center. We’ve got to ensure we’re meeting the mental health needs of Montana’s transitioning servicemembers and veterans, and as Chairman of @SVACDems, I’m going to keep working to do just that. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Honored to meet with @OfficialMLK3 and @ArndreaKing this afternoon to discuss the pivotal moment we're at as a country. The right to vote is fundamental, and it's critically important that we confront the tidal wave of state legislation aimed at making it hard for folks to vote. https://t.co/BjpBEZawPb — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

The rash of voter suppression legislation we've seen across a number of states—including Montana—isn't making our elections more secure. It's making our democracy weaker. The Senate needs to act to defend the voting rights of every eligible Montanan, and every eligible American. https://t.co/j98zW2lQ5p — PolitiTweet.org

@2019MTTOY @SteveDaines Hey Bonner! Mine’s rocky road 🤙 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Had a great meeting with Martha Williams—an exceptional Montanan who's spent her entire career standing up for our public lands. She's a proven problem solver who can bring folks together to make positive change, and I'm looking forward to her leadership of the @USFWS. https://t.co/Q5u0NqTS77 — PolitiTweet.org

Chairman Powell has guided our economy through this crisis in a nonpartisan way. As the economy continues to recover, we need a steady hand at the wheel. After questioning Powell this morning, it remains clear to me that he's earned a second term at the Fed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

The Gibson Dam has needed an update for years, and our bipartisan legislation will finally make it happen. This hydropower project is a great deal for irrigators and energy production—bringing new jobs, opportunities, and revenue into Northern Montana. https://t.co/jzwUNNxzII — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Tough loss for the Bobcats this weekend, but one heck of a season. Montana is very proud. A deal's a deal, @SenKevinCramer—congrats on your victory, and I hope you like Montana beef! https://t.co/ooYpQ5p5wf — PolitiTweet.org

Looking good, @SenatorLujan! No matter the season, there's always work to do on the farm—in Nambé or Big Sandy. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester

Started my week off taking questions from Ms. Mayes's first-rate government class out of Billings West High School. These kids are smart! I know Montana is in good hands with these future leaders. https://t.co/8cIwnjoSk8 — PolitiTweet.org

IMPORTANT: The open enrollment period for the ACA Marketplace closes this week, on January 15th. The American Rescue Plan made it easier and more affordable to get the health coverage you and your family need. Don't wait. Head to https://t.co/c7GyBtWVwC now to #GetCovered. — PolitiTweet.org
