12/14/2023 Biden Admin. Strangles American Energy While China Surges Forward
09/14/2022 Tweet - "Senate Democrats just blocked our bill that would have given railway workers a big raise and prevented a crippling strike and supply chain crisis. If a strike occurs and paralyzes food, fertilizer, and energy shipments nationwide, it will be because Democrats blocked this bill."
09/14/2022 Tweet - "Republicans are heading to the floor with a bill to prevent a railway strike that would create total chaos. It would give workers the package that most of the unions have already approved. President Biden should have already resolved this himself. Democrats must let this pass."

07/15/2021 Tweet - "On Democrats' watch, inflation has turned a 3.5% annual pay raise for American workers into a nearly 2% pay cut. Families are facing runaway costs. But Democrats still want to tax, borrow, and spend another $4 trillion this summer."
06/16/2021 Economic Recovery
06/08/2021 Tweet - "Democrats rammed through their spending bill in spite of warnings that it would slow rehiring and drive up prices for American families, As last month's jobs report shows, the consequences for Main Street small businesses are coming into painful focus."

05/17/2021 Coronavirus
05/13/2021 Tweet - "When Democrats forced through their partisan "COVID relief" bill, we said bad policies would slow rehiring and risk inflation. - April came in about 800,000 new jobs below expectations - Unemployment actually inched back up - The biggest reported inflation jump in over a decade"
05/12/2021 Biden Administration
04/13/2021 Infrastructure
03/31/2021 Tweet - "The Administration's non-infrastructure "infrastructure bill" looks like another Trojan horse for far-left demands. Rolling back Right to Work laws. Imposing the biggest new tax hikes in a generation -- killing jobs and slowing wage growth when workers need a fast recovery."

12/19/2020 Coronavirus
11/20/2020 Tweet - "Our country badly needs the kinds of targeted, urgent COVID relief that Republicans have been trying to pass for months -- from job-saving PPP funding to vaccine distribution. My full statement:"
11/18/2020 Tweet - "For months, Republicans have tried to make bipartisan progress on huge areas of COVID relief where there's no disagreement. Vaccine distribution funds. Another round of the PPP for hard-hit small businesses. But Democrats blocked it all over their unrelated liberal wish-list."
11/17/2020 Tweet - "Republicans have tried for weeks to pass another targeted rescue package. It would send hundreds of billions of dollars to schools, unemployment aid, another round of the job-saving PPP, and healthcare. Democrats repeatedly blocked it all. Let's hope they let us make law soon."
10/21/2020 Tweet - "NOW: The Senate is voting on another rescue package for American families. Testing. Treatments. Vaccines. Unemployment aid. Another PPP. Historic money for schools. Find common ground & get help out the door. We'll see if Democrats use the filibuster to kill the bill."
