08/11/2020 Tweet - "Americans need relief, and that means focusing on what's directly related to COVID-19: Kids, jobs, healthcare, and legal protections for re-opening. I applaud the President for taking action during this emergency to get help to Americans who are struggling."

07/20/2020 Tweet - "Our country can't afford a second epidemic of frivolous lawsuits while we fight the COVID-19 pandemic. The next relief package should focus on four things: Jobs, healthcare, kids in school, and liability protections for those helping us fight the coronavirus."
07/13/2020 Tweet - "Any future COVID relief package needs to be measured, with a focus on getting kids back in school safely, workers back on the job, and delivering liability protections for individuals related to the coronavirus crisis."
07/07/2020 Tweet - "We can't get our country back to normal unless we have kids in school. That's what a future COVID relief would focus on, along with jobs, healthcare, and liability protections."
07/02/2020 Tweet - "ICYMI: I joined @DanaPerino to discuss the Senate's leading role in coronavirus relief and the importance of legal protections for doctors, nurses, schools, universities, and employers."

06/30/2020 Tweet - "Senate Republicans led the CARES Act, the biggest rescue package in American history that helped our nation weather this storm. Any further legislation will need to focus intently on kids, jobs, and healthcare, and include legal protections to help schools and businesses reopen."
05/28/2020 Tweet - "Our country is starting to carefully re-open. Any further legislation will need to focus on practical solutions that help kids return to school next fall, help laid-off Americans get re-hired, and stop frivolous lawsuits from stalling our recovery."
05/20/2020 Tweet - "You can't make this up: During a global crisis, House Democrats are arguing that the acquittal of President Trump did not actually end their impeachment. They would rather spend another year trying to cram politics into the legal system than help the Senate govern the country."
05/15/2020 Tweet - "Forget about this $3 trillion left-wing wish list that even House Democrats are criticizing. Republicans are focused on practical solutions like legal liability protections for medical workers and the schools, universities, and businesses that will be trying to re-open."
05/12/2020 Tweet - "More than two-thirds of independent business owners say they are worried about a legal liability minefield getting in the way of re-opening. The Senate majority is not going to stand idly by and let trial lawyers vacuum up relief money & redirect it into their own pockets."
05/07/2020 Tweet - "Strong legal protections will be essential as our economy reopens. As of a week ago, 771 lawsuits had already been filed against everyone from workers on the front lines to universities to businesses. Our rescue efforts cannot get diverted into a huge giveaway for trial lawyers."
04/29/2020 Tweet - "ICYMI: I joined @kilmeade to discuss liability protections for frontline workers, reconvening the Senate next week, and Senate Republicans' accomplishments working with President Trump:"
