I voted for the bipartisan bill that sends $4.6 billion to help with the humanitarian crisis on our Southern border, and I am glad Congress approved this bill and sent it to @POTUS. This is a significant response to a major national problem. https://t.co/ykHkUfUrGY — PolitiTweet.org

The #LowerHealthCareCosts Act of 2019 will reduce what Americans pay out of their own pockets for health care in three major ways: 1. End surprise medical billing 2. More transparency 3. More competition for generic drugs and for biosimilar drugs https://t.co/BJYXFsuBdF — PolitiTweet.org

It also improves housing and helps increase employment opportunities for military spouses, which was a priority for Senator @MarshaBlackburn. She deserves credit for working to address this problem through her membership on the Senate Armed Services Committee. — PolitiTweet.org
