@SenMcCormickPA How about a town hall available to all Dave? You represent everyone in PA not just the chosen few.

Our weekly Keystone Coffee is one of my favorite ways to meet with Pennsylvanians, hear what’s on their minds, and talk about the issues that matter most to our Commonwealth.
English
@SenFettermanPA A no bid contract? Do you even understand how government works? No accountability? Not to mention maintaining the historically significant site? You are guilty of malpractice.
English
Stop this henpecking.
$13M? This is an iconic American place and was in serious disrepair.
Get over the TDS and celebrate this is getting done for our 250th. 🇺🇸
English
@SenMcCormickPA This is rich you honor Salk but confirm RFK jr you cannot have it both ways. Honestly are you this oblivious? Or do you really think we are that stupid and just in awe of your continuous photos and videos meanwhile a demented president destroys democracy.
English
In celebrating America’s 250th, we honor one Pittsburgh doctor and researcher who gave the world a breakthrough that changed history and saved millions of lives: Dr. Jonas Salk, father of the polio vaccine

@SenMcCormickPA @BankingGOP @federalreserve Senator Warren took Warsh to school. Play politics? That’s all you know you could learn something from her. Warsh won’t even answer who won the election in 2020. And 100 million divestment a secret? Independent? Sure Dave 😉
English
Just walked out of Kevin Warsh’s confirmation hearing before @BankingGOP. He was outstanding.
Democrats played politics, and some launched vicious, unfounded attacks. It won’t work.
Kevin is exactly the right person the @federalreserve needs.
English
@SenMcCormickPA Republicans must end the political theater and get down to business and actually govern which means negotiate not dictate. People’s lives are at stake masked ICE agents kidnapping, and traumatizing our black and brown brothers and sisters without due process is unconstitutional.
English
I said it late Thursday night right before the Senate left, and I’ll say it again: America cannot afford half measures on homeland security.
The threats are real. The mission is critical. Fully fund DHS. Pay TSA, CISA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. Support ICE and Border Patrol.
Democrats must end their political theater and put the safety of Americans first.
English
@SenMcCormickPA Terrorizing and targeting our black and brown brothers and sisters without due process using masked slave patrols is egregious and unconstitutional. The American people want no part of the war with Iran Trump entered into without congressional authorization.
English
I said what I said on the Senate Floor yesterday and I meant every word of it.
A lot has happened in the last 24 hours, none of it changes the basic truth: the Democrats shutting down DHS in the middle of ongoing combat operations abroad and terror-linked attacks at home is reckless and dangerous.
English
@SenFettermanPA @AFGENational Trump refused to fund the DHS compromise proposed to him by Thune which would fund TSA along with other agencies. Your refusal to support the democrats is a ploy for attention. If you switched parties no one would seek you out you’d be just another MAGA.
English
Stop talking about “affordability” while voting to deprive their paychecks.
This shutdown is punitive, destructive and reckless.
I stand with @AFGENational. Pay these workers and end this shutdown.
English
It’s always a pleasure talking directly with Pennsylvanians while I’m in Washington voting.
I’m hosting a live Telephone Town Hall tonight at 5PM ET.
Sign up by 2PM to join the conversation ⬇️

@SenMcCormickPA @TSA Nope problem is you and your party refuse to fund TSA voted down the bill how many times now🤔
English
Senate Democrats have blocked DHS funding 5 times and our @TSA officers are bearing the cost.
Many have been forced to leave the job, work second jobs, or stay home. On Sunday alone, PHL and PIT saw over 24% callouts.
At both airports, TSA officers are depending on food pantries and community donations for meals.
Enough. Fund DHS. Pay TSA.
NBC News@NBCNews
TSA call-outs on Sunday, March 22, per DHS: TSA call-out rate: 11.76% Total TSA officer call-outs: 3,450+ Major airport call-out rates from Sunday: • MSY 42.3% • ATL 41.5% • IAH 39.1% • BWI 38.1% • JFK 37.4% • PIT 24.7% • PHL 24.2% • LGA 21.7% • PHX 20.3%

@SenMcCormickPA Voters do not overwhelmingly support voter suppression and the implementation of a poll tax mimicking Jim Crow. Our voter rolls are already clean and mechanisms in place for each state to double check, voter fraud is extremely rare.
English
The SAVE America Act is simple: only US citizens should vote in US elections.
Proof of citizenship to register. Photo ID to vote. Clean voter rolls. Enforce the law.
Basic. Reasonable. Common sense.
So why are Democrats opposing a bill voters overwhelmingly support?
English
@SenMcCormickPA @SenMikeLee The SAVE Act is a voter suppression act in essence a poll tax mimicking Jim Crow laws that requires states turn over voter registration to the Feds which should alarm every American including you but you’ll do anything for the grifter-in-chief for personal profit.
English
“It does not take many illegal votes to swing an election and change the course of history.” That should alarm every American.
Election integrity is common sense and an overwhelming majority of Americans support it.
More from my remarks on @SenMikeLee’s SAVE America Act ⬇️
English
@SenMcCormickPA @TSA No Dave your party keeps blocking the funding and refusing to actually govern which means meeting and negotiating with the Democrats. Instead you all capitulate to an increasingly mentally incompetent corrupt president who is reckless and dangerous. Fund the TSA bill!
English
Americans are paying the price for Democrats’ shutdown politics.
@TSA officers are working without pay. Travelers at Philadelphia International Airport are feeling the impact.
Fund DHS. Pay TSA. Keep Pennsylvania moving.
Jarrett Renshaw@JarrettRenshaw
6 am at Philly airport...security line back to the hotel Marriott... I have never seen a line this long in Philly.
English
Heading to vote, and I will remain the only Democrat that refuses to shut our government down.
Pay TSA agents.
Reopen DHS.
English
@SenFettermanPA You’re a Democrat? Now you’re doing the dance of every Republican compare Trump to Biden or blame Biden and use Fox News to justify it. And you still refuse to condemn the atrocities ICE commits let alone the targeting of our black and brown brothers and sisters.
English
“26,963 encounters nationwide in February, down…88% below the monthly average during former President Joe Biden’s administration.”
From a monthly high of 302,000 to less than 27,000.
Sorry, I’m a Democrat that votes for a secured border over a wide-open one.
English
@SenMcCormickPA It’s on you and your party to put up the TSA funding bill and the Dems are all in. But you are not interested in governing which means negotiating on ICE it’s your way or the highway at the expense of people’s lives.
English
PHL is paying the price for the Democrats’ DHS shutdown.
Unpaid TSA officers. Closed checkpoints. Long lines. Missed flights.
Pennsylvanians are paying for Washington’s political games.
Fund DHS. End this now.
Officer Lew@officer_Lew
JUST IN🚨: Major disruption at Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) this morning 😳 Several TSA checkpoints (including A-West, C, and F) are temporarily closed due to staffing issues from the ongoing partial gov shutdown. Lines shifting—arrive early!
English
@SenFettermanPA It’s a question of temperament and what is best for the country not for your pal. Fun fact the grifter-in-chief doesn’t listen to anyone that’s how we got into this war in Iran without a plan.
English
In January, I called on the president to fire Noem—and he did.
I truly approached the confirmation of my colleague and friend, Senator Mullin, with an open-mind.
We need a leader at DHS.
We must reopen DHS.
My AYE is rooted in a strong committed, constructive working relationship with Senator Mullin for our nation’s security.
U.S. Senator John Fetterman@SenFettermanPA
.@POTUS @realDonaldTrump: I make a direct appeal to immediately fire @Sec_Noem. Americans have died. She is betraying DHS’s core mission and trashing your border security legacy. DO NOT make the mistake President Biden made for not firing a grossly incompetent DHS Secretary.
English
@SenFettermanPA I’m with Carville! There is no plan for Trump’s war in Iran. You have violated your oath by supporting his war without congressional authority. Israel is guilty of war crimes.
English
As a Democrat, I’m deeply proud to stand with Israel through the horror of 10/07.
I’m deeply proud of our military and what they’ve accomplished in Epic Fury.
Picking country over party is never wrong.
English
@marlysa91724199 @SenMcCormickPA @SenMikeLee Follow the research. Sounds like you believe the election was stolen in 2020 so not true.
English
Illegal immigrant Mahady Sacko allegedly voted in 5 elections in PA. That should never happen. Only U.S. citizens should decide U.S. elections.
This is precisely why I support @SenMikeLee's SAVE America Act. We must secure our elections.
I commend U.S. Attorney David Metcalf and his team for uncovering this case and working to hold those who undermine the integrity of our elections accountable.
