While Democrat politicians say voter ID is a suppression tactic, they themselves require ID for all sorts of things 🧵

Senate Democrats are defying common sense – and their party’s own voters – by opposing voter ID in the SAVE America Act. According to a Harvard-Harris Poll: ✅81% of voters support requiring voter ID to vote, including: ✅70% of Democrat voters ✅79% of Independent voters

Missed paychecks. Travel disruptions. Long airport wait times. Hardworking Americans are paying the price for Senate Democrats’ political games. Stop the insanity and fund DHS.

We use IDs every day. The vast majority of Americans are in favor of using IDs when they vote. The SAVE America Act is common sense.

Americans from both sides agree the SAVE America Act is bipartisan common sense. It’s time Senate Democrats actually listened to the American people. Let’s get to work!

It’s safe to say Americans are taking their IDs out regularly and having a pretty easy go of it. Yet when it comes to voting, Democrats talk like requiring a photo ID is some insurmountable burden. If that were true, why would Democrats be requiring a photo ID for their voters to get into their campaign events?

Farmers need stability and we help deliver that in the Working Families Tax Cuts. Hear from @NCottonCouncil Chairman Nathan Reed how these historic investments are providing certainty during times of economic volatility.🚜

Right now, Senate Republicans are fighting to make sure only American citizens vote in elections. But Democrats are continuing to cling to their failed open-border, pro-fraud, anti-law enforcement positions.

The Republican-passed WFTC not only lowers tax rates, provides more deductions and credits, and incentivizes small businesses to invest and hire. It enhances 529 education savings accounts, establishes savings accounts for newborns, and creates new school choice tax credits. You can't expect the partisan Trump haters at the Forum to tell you about the many accomplishments of the WFTC for North Dakotans.

Only American citizens should be able to vote in American elections. This should be a straightforward issue, but the Democrats think otherwise.

It’s simple, you need an ID: ✅To travel ✅To drive ✅To get a library card ✅To volunteer to shovel snow in NYC If you are voting in the United States, you should NEED AN ID.

Democrats need to listen to the American people. Support voter ID. Pass the SAVE America Act. It's common sense.

The Working Families Tax Cuts are delivering real support for hardworking farmers like Gary, who grows Pima cotton. By strengthening the farm safety, we’re building a more secure future for America's cotton growers and our agriculture industry.

There’s only one way to be sure that only Americans are voting in our elections: Voters have to prove they’re citizens when they register to vote. Passing this requirement should be a no-brainer, but Democrats roundly oppose this commonsense policy.

TSA, Secret Service, Coast Guard, and FEMA workers are going without paychecks while national security threats rise and storm-hit communities wait for help. Democrats need to stop using the American people as political pawns and fund DHS now.

The Democrats’ decision to shut down the Department of Homeland Security has caused chaos at our airports, delayed assistance to communities affected by disasters, and forced thousands of frontline employees to work without any guarantee of when they will be paid. The United States is less safe because the Democrats chose to walk away from the bipartisan DHS funding bill and have blocked repeated Republican efforts to pass a short-term funding patch to prevent disruptions while negotiations continue. The White House made a good-faith offer last month that builds on the reforms included in the bipartisan funding bill negotiated earlier this year, with new safeguards to protect both the American public and law enforcement and increased oversight. Democrats waited 18 days to respond. In that time, we saw violent attacks at Old Dominion University and the Temple Israel Synagogue in Michigan and a massive cyber attack on the Stryker Corporation. It is time for Democrats to get serious and work with us in earnest to govern responsibly.

Democrats are holding TSA, cybersecurity, FEMA, and the Coast Guard hostage with their government shutdown, and the American people are paying the price. End the shutdown. Reopen @DHSgov.

The Save America Act's goals are simple: secure American elections by requiring proof of eligibility to register and vote, and protect children from Democrats' radical gender policies. Republicans are forcing Democrats to defend their opposition to these commonsense policies.

The SAVE America Act is comprised of commonsense measures that the majority of Americans support. The only folks who don't support it appear to be my Democrat colleagues.

To every American service member— and to the military families who support them:
