FEC reports are in. Over 4,200 individual contributors, no corporate PAC money AND only outraised by $100k - not bad for the “little girl” they said couldn’t win. Let’s do this! 💪🏻 #VoteThemOut
Did I mention he’s held this seat since I was in kindergarten? #FireInhofe
My column in today’s paper: “Oklahoma is leading the charge in a Handmaid’s Tale-style assault on women’s health care.” (1/5) oklahoman.com/story/opinion/…
This year’s newly eligible 18-year-old voters were born more than three decades after the United States Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade. Now, while exercising their protected voting rights under our Constitution, another protected right may soon be stripped away (2/5)
in a destructive move against this generation. Oklahoma is leading the charge in a Handmaid’s Tale-style assault on women’s health care. The day after the leaked draft Supreme Court opinion overturning Roe made headlines, Gov. Kevin Stitt (3/5)
Remember when @JimInhofe talked about employees in the Murrah bldg & how they were playing hooky- he’s attacking workers again
"Furloughed workers won’t come back to work b/c they’re enjoying their federal unemployment benefits"
Anyone you know enjoy being out of work?

He knows he’s full of it and still says it:
“Look, I know there are people shaking their heads right now at the comments I just made, because they’re thinking, ‘if Inhofe only knew how we’re hurting right now…I do know, because we’ve talked to people.”
Really?

@JimInhofe is so out of touch he believes our economic woes are because you won’t go back to work - that you’re lazy and worthless.
He’s been socially distancing from Oklahoma since 1994, he has no idea the work ethic of today’s Oklahomans. He just assumes the worst in you.

I saw this yesterday - there are few words that can describe how disrespectful this tweet is for families in rural Oklahoma, and rural America. To think that families are legitimately scared right now and your only words of comfort are, "look at us, aren't we the best!"
Jim obviously has no idea what rural families are facing. All of the staff written tweets in the world won't save him from the reality that he's been in the Senate for an entire generation and nothing has changed. Here are some facts from our friends at @_OneCountry_
1.8M people 65 years & older (4% of US seniors) live in a county without a hospital. 86% of counties w/no hospital beds have greater than average senior population & most of those counties are rural.
Since 2005, there have been 170 rural hospital closures.
Just my thoughts as to what we need from a new stimulus: I’m tired of waiting on Inhofe to get his act together, Oklahomans need help now. We need a Marshall type plan for healthcare; billions for hospitals, community hospitals and nursing homes + money to pay for COVID testing.
-Our small businesses need help: if you have under 500 employees, we need to help your business and your furloughed employees come back strong.
-SNAP needs a strong investment -We need a large package for seniors & child care as well + transportation & housing - come on.
-Our airline industry needs help BUT it can’t just be cash directly to them. -Save the furloughs and no stock buyback plus they can’t undo collective bargains.
-If any company gets a direct investment they must, MUST keep their employees.
