I joined @SenatorHassan in sending a bipartisan letter urging the @DeptVetAffairs to swiftly develop & conduct outreach to veterans of the Global War on Terrorism--especially those who served in Afghanistan--providing them with mental health resources. https://t.co/lglLi8vALo — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

As Americans, we have a duty to care for our nation's veterans, who have served in Afghanistan and across the globe, who gave everything they have to defend our freedom. With the recent events in Afghanistan, we must ensure they have the support they need here at home. — PolitiTweet.org

Programs like Medicare Advantage have successfully shown that diverse, high-quality plans, not government one-size-fits-all health coverage, work best for patients. Proposals to make cuts to the program would harm the very people it's intended to help: https://t.co/gy9qApV3R0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

I'd like to celebrate Idahoans Dani Aravich (track & field), Will Groulx (cycling) and BSU grad Roderick Townsend (track & field), who reached the pinnacle of their sports and wonderfully represented our state and our nation at the #TokyoParalympics. https://t.co/QY7KgaeMwp — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

Idahoan Kory Puderbaugh has done it again, earning his second silver medal with the @usawchrugby team at the #TokyoParalympics (his first medal was in 2016). Congratulations on the tremendous win, Kory! We're proud of all you have achieved! — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

Congrats to Idahoan Kate Shoemaker on reaching the podium for the first time at the #TokyoParalympics! Kate helped #USAParaDressage earn bronze and its first-ever medal at the #Paralympics. Way to represent the Gem State well on the big stage! — PolitiTweet.org

The sacrifices made by our servicemembers over the last 20 years cannot be understated. They have served with valor, distinction and honor. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

I offer my thanks to both diplomatic and military personnel charged with an impossible mission in this limited amount of time, and continue to pray for the families and friends of the 13 brave servicemembers we lost in this endeavor. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

The Administration’s string of colossal failures regarding this withdrawal must be brought to light. It is imperative Congress conduct oversight of our withdrawal from Afghanistan and ensure full accountability. https://t.co/BNfqcFHY4D — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

America’s longest war has now concluded. With the news the United States officially completed its mission in Afghanistan, many questions remain about the poor execution of our withdrawal in the region. https://t.co/FjYfQhD5SP — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

My prayers are w/ the family & loved ones of the 13 U.S. servicemembers killed in last week’s terrorist attacks, & with all the other heroes who have gone above & beyond the call of duty to protect Americans & our allies. Their selfless service & sacrifice will not be forgotten. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

The President must do more to secure the lives of Americans and our allies in Afghanistan, no matter how long it takes. We cannot allow terrorists to dictate the terms when it comes to the safety of Americans. Arbitrary deadlines do not matter when so many lives are at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

Heartbreaking to hear about the senseless killings of U.S. servicemembers and Afghan civilians. These attacks are a grim reminder of what our brave service members face in defense of the freedoms we all hold dear. My prayers are with those impacted by these horrific attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

It’s not just farms and ranches – it’s small businesses, too. Read to see how some small business owners could be wiped out by a higher capital-gains rate: https://t.co/HuWPHnaIXR — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

A study conducted by the Family Business Estate Tax Coalition estimates that repealing the stepped-up basis provision could kill 800,000 jobs over the course of a decade and could lower wages of U.S. workers by $32 for every $100 raised. https://t.co/y5MWghNea6 — PolitiTweet.org

Worse, the Democrats’ plan would tax these businesses on simple inflation, sticking them with the bill for reckless inflationary tax-and-spend policies enacted by politicians in Washington. https://t.co/uY8jWbyBID — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

Democrats want to create a double death tax by eliminating the benefit of this step-up in tax basis, including for small businesses, farms and ranches passed down from one generation to the next at death. My friend @SenJohnThune explains it well: https://t.co/wV0cooJKhV — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

Today, family businesses passed down at death are subject only to estate tax and not an additional income tax. Instead, a business’s tax basis is increased or “stepped up” to fair market value, sparing the next generation a large capital gains tax bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

I recently spoke with @HolmesJosh about some of the international tax policies in the Democrats’ reckless tax and spending proposal. Listen to our discussion here: https://t.co/peeazvOdpq — PolitiTweet.org

According to data reported in @taxnotes, top tech companies are estimated to have brought back a “whopping $59.8 billion into the United States in 2020 because of the TCJA. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

The Tax Cuts & Jobs Act (TCJA) international tax provisions are working—tech companies are bringing profits back to the US in record numbers. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

For veterans impacted by the news of the last few weeks, please reach out if you need help. The Veterans Crisis Line is 1-800-273-8255. Please check in on your veteran friends, family & neighbors. Let them know their service is valued and not forgotten. https://t.co/64OS0oN2Gg — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

The Administration’s int'l tax proposal seems designed to re-ignite the job-crushing inversions and foreign acquisitions of American companies that the Obama Administration faced. There's no reason to tax our businesses into moving abroad. https://t.co/mA1K8Y6gon — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

. @WaysandMeansGOP Ranking Member @RepKevinBrady and I have consistently said the Administration should not surrender jobs, growth, or tax revenues to other countries in order to advance a partisan tax increase agenda at home. https://t.co/91zACqtxfo — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

They fail to acknowledge that the tax increases in their plan will rocket the United States back into the outlier position it once occupied compared to peer nations. Once again, we will have the highest tax rates of the developed world, or at least very near the top. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

The Democrats’ tax plan would reverse the smart policies the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act adopted, once again raising the relative cost of doing business in America and punishing American businesses selling their products or services overseas. https://t.co/mCvVA7CCuy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Crapo @MikeCrapo

Regardless of the merits and drawbacks of the decision to withdraw from Afghanistan, the United States has a responsibility to those who are now at risk because of that decision and its execution by this administration. https://t.co/kIMyuE3gv4 — PolitiTweet.org
