In 1997, Hong Kongers were promised they could keep their autonomy, democratic gov. and capitalist economy for 50 years. Now, the Chinese Communist Party in Beijing is blatantly violating that agreement by imposing a heavy-handed communist rule. We must hold the CCP accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

.@POTUS – I’m glad you agree with me that China is our top pacing threat. Now, we need to see action to back up those words. The best thing we can do to deter Chinese aggression is give our military a strong defense budget. https://t.co/BgCfIXgAQu — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

@POTUS made excellent selections with @SecDef and @DepSecDef, and I urge him to send us nominees who can garner the same bipartisan support as they did. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

This position demands bipartisanship, even temperament and good policy judgment — characteristics I don’t believe Dr. Kahl has demonstrated. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

This is the number-three position at the @DeptofDefense — and the policy role is currently even more important because the United States is facing more threats than ever before. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

I appreciate Dr. Colin Kahl’s commitment to public service, but I cannot support his nomination to serve as Under Secretary of Defense for Policy. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

I discussed this with Admiral Aquilino, who has been nominated to serve as @INDOPACOM commander, at a #SASC hearing today. He agrees – we need the F-35, and we need forces positioned in the region to respond quickly. https://t.co/8uHJ9U1X3q — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

What we do or don’t do to deter China in the military domain will determine the success of our diplomatic and economic efforts as well.   That’s why we need the right investment, equipment (like the F-35), and posture in the Indo-Pacific – to send a clear message to China. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Proud to stand w/ @RepAshleyHinson to send a strong message to @SpeakerPelosi. This is hypocritical, not to mention an obscene overreach to overturn a state-certified election. Wanting to increase the Dem majority in the House isn’t grounds for overturning the will of the people. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Why else would Biden shut down the Keystone XL Pipeline, which eliminated 10,000 union jobs, push a minimum wage increase that would cost 1.4M jobs and advocate for radical changes to labor law that would overturn states’ right-to-work laws and harm independent contractors? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Tonight, I opposed the confirmation of Marty Walsh to be Secretary of @USDOL. We need a secretary who will be for all labor, not just big labor. The Biden-Harris administration is clear—they want him in the cabinet to work for big union bosses and not union workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Faith-based providers across the nation are finding their adoptive services endangered because of their religious beliefs, which in turn means fewer loving homes for children. Proud to join @SenatorTimScott's bill to empower & protect these providers. https://t.co/Kty0yD3P62 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

.@US_EDA is awarding a $1.25M CARES Act Recovery Assistance grant to Fairview to help recover from the pandemic and support rural health care in Northwest Oklahoma by expanding the outpatient therapy department of Fairview Regional Medical Center. https://t.co/L2bHw91Dgj — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Proud to join @SenThomTillis in reintroducing this act to punish violent criminals who intentionally target officers. I promise to continue to fight for the safety of those in Oklahoma & across the nation who put their lives on the line to protect us. https://t.co/gH557Ny7YW — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

That's why I joined @SenToddYoung in cosponsoring the DRIVE-Safe Act to address the truck driver shortage across industries such as oil & gas, agriculture & defense that drive Oklahoma’s economic growth, while improving safety and giving career opportunities to younger Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Oklahoma is rightfully recognized as one of the nation’s leading transportation hubs with 11,000 trucking companies and over 27,000 truck drivers using over 12,000 miles of highways to access and fully utilize our three inland ports and nearly 4,000 miles of rail. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Clean drinking water and reliable water infrastructure is not only needed, it’s essential—especially during extreme weather. It was great to introduce and hear @OklahomaDEQ's Shellie Chard represent our state and share her thoughts and expertise with the EPW committee. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

China continues to block Taiwan from obtaining observer status at @WHO, despite Taiwan being a strong, reliable & dedicated public health partner to the U.S. & international community. @SenatorMenendez & I agree, Taiwan’s observer status must be restored. https://t.co/rbJI8yPtNP — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Continuing to ignore these actions as if they can be separated from what we do in our trading relationship is dangerously misguided. To combat this @SenTomCotton, @SenRickScott &I introduced the China Trade Relations Act to end China’s permanent preferential trade relationship. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

I said it 20yrs ago and I will say it again: we can't allow the pursuit of trade to blind us to certain realities about China's Communist regime. They've violated far too many international agreements & are known globally for their brutal repression & disregard for human rights. — PolitiTweet.org

As we continue the battle for life, I want to assure all Oklahomans and all those who believe in the sanctity of life that I will continue to do everything in my power to fight for our shared beliefs in Congress. I will not be deterred. https://t.co/VnDAV5ODZI — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

It is the duty and responsibility of our president to nominate qualified individuals to lead our federal agencies. Sadly, that is not the case with this nominee. He is unfit to be Secretary of Health and Human Services — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Xavier Becerra has an appalling track-record: vehemently advocating against pro-life policies in Congress, attempting to force nuns to provide access to birth control and abortion-inducing drugs and pushing for the expansion of access to ‘abortions by mail’ during the pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

Today, we will vote on confirmation of Xavier Becerra to be Sec. of HHS. Becerra is the wrong choice. His appalling track-record against the sanctity of life, multiple violations of the First Amendment & radical polices prove that. See for yourself. ⬇️ https://t.co/uGa7e9tsN9 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe

The important work we see at @71FTW to keep our Oklahoma military families and communities safe, especially during a global pandemic, is appreciated. Thank you, @shopmyexchange for continuing to carry out your mission to serve and protect our OK military bases during #COVID19. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a humanitarian & national security crisis — which is why I joined @SenCapito & 39 of my Senate colleagues in sending a letter to @USGAO highlighting Biden's blatant violation of the Impoundment Control Act and infringement on Congress’ constitutional power of the purse. — PolitiTweet.org

And due to the administration’s actions, we are now facing an increasingly dangerous situation on our border. Our border agents are overwhelmed and Biden’s policies are encouraging illegal immigration – plain and simple. — PolitiTweet.org
