Senator Braun, quick question, did you take the shot? @SenatorBraun please don’t say you refuse to answer for privacy reason.

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Thank you! President Biden for your leadership.

Are you courageous enough to take your business and you money elsewhere, if they are not fully vaccinated? I am, join me! Ask the question. Are you fully vaccinated? If NO - leave and take your business elsewhere.

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Should we know if the doctors and nurses that we see are vaccinated? YES they ask us, ask them. They should disclose this information voluntarily.

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Encountered 8 medical professionals, asked all 8 if they have taken the vaccine, 5 said yes and 3 cited HIPPA reasons for not disclosing to me. I take that as No- unsettling. Get the shot people!!!

Do you care if your bus driver is vaccinated? I hope you do. Call your school system and demand it.

Millions of Americans have lost employer sponsored health insurance that the employee pays for, then you have millions that only work for health insurance.

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

@MampillyGuru I totally agree!

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Millions of Americans who have worked for years receive Social Security benefits below the poverty line, which is $12,880 annually. The Biden administration has proposed raising the min Social Security benefit to 125% of the federal poverty level, or approximately $16,100.

@JoyAnnReid Let’s get big money out of government. Stop electing these people to office.

Exciting to watch Magha Ganne the US Open. So cool!

If all the jurors were white, would they have reached the same verdict?

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Thank you MLB!!

I don’t think they realize what they’ve just done. Republicans in Georgia have just angered & awakened a sleeping growing giant. That giant which usually sleeps through midterms is now wide awake. They’ve handed progressives the energizing & mobilizing midterm issue they needed!

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

@RepMarciaFudge Congratulations!

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

House of Representatives just passed H.R. 8 and H.R. 1446—two critical gun safety bills that will close loopholes in our country's background check laws.

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Not 1 Republican Representative in Congress voted for the Covid bill. We can do better!

[Dee Thornton @DThorntonGO]

Game On!
