Friends – as you’ve probably heard, I have decided to hang up my electoral spurs for the final time.
Just know the #TheLionRoers will always be with you.
In the words of a great American poet: 🎶 In the jungle the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight 🎶
Good riding with ya.
Things can get a little hairy after session. Temperatures rise, and passions are high.
Right now, I’m over here ready to fight this MMA fella with my affliction shirt and I got ol Santa bear backing me up. I’ve had this shirt since 2007, and I’ll never back down. #TheLionRoers
Today I’m “cheesin” from cheek to cheek because it’s my BIRTHDAY. 39 has never looked better! Many people are saying 4/21 is perhaps the best day to be born, and I concur. #BrithdayRoers#TheLionROERS#BirthdayInTheSenate
This session has been all about strategy. You could call it a “strategy session.” As you can see, I shrewdly sat in Sen. Mathern’s chair when conferring with him this morning. This is called a “power move” son. #TheLionRoers
The new kid is putting in A LOT of work already!! Go get em slugger, and remember my office door is always open (it’s a desk! 😎) #TheLionRoers#Advice#Mentorship
First two prime sponsored bills in the hopper — one to establish pilot program at AG’s office to help victims of domestic violence, and the other to give counselors licensing reciprocity with other states to help provide patients more options
The Lion of the Senate has awoken from his slumber! This new Secretary may be slick, but I’m not letting him off easy. Great taste in ties though! #TheLionRoers#HoweDoesHeDoIt#NDLeg
I’ve heard the hoodlums are trying to turn North Dakota into Gotham City with people snorting marijuana on every street corner.
But even in the darkness, a knight rises.

Kruen and me putting in the hours staying well into the evening. All of those young bucks leaving after floor session don’t know what real work is!! #Roers#AfterHourRoers
My rubber band wallet snapped, and now there’s cash blowing all over the Senate floor. Kempenich was heating spaghetti in the Senate Office and is now screaming about steak and lobster for lunch. It’s bedlam! #RubberbandRoers
I have introduced a bill to the ND State Senate allowing State Senators to wear vests on the Senate floor. They’re comfy and I look great in them.
DM me for bill number!
@TeddyMeadowlark @sroersjones Hey there Theodore! What do you know about the ROERS calendar? You know zip! Must be tough having your last name be that of the state bird too? Ha! #ROERSFORSENATE
Well, that was a healthy hiatus! I’ve been holed up watching succession for months, in 15 minute increments. I just wanted to remind you all that I will win! #TeamLogan#WayStarRoersCo
As we are now in the waning days of session, I have decided to carefully review the House journal and become parliamentarian. These folks aren’t very careful!! #WisdomOfRoers
