On the recordFebruary 4, 2020
As the President in the State of the Union reviews his achievements from the vantage point of the White House, I have lived his successes on the ground level, in South Carolina and overseas. In Orangeburg, his Opportunity Zone legislation with Senator Tim Scott has prompted a $20 million spec building for jobs. In Munich, Germany, with Senator Lindsey Graham, I saw his urging NATO defense spending. In Aiken, Chancellor Sandra Jordan has achieved the funding for the Advanced Manufacturing Collaborative in USC-Aiken. In New Delhi, India, and also in Houston, Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured his alliance with President Trump. In Cayce, Lou Kennedy of Nephron Pharmaceuticals continues her success, growing over 2,000 jobs. And in Manama, Bahrain, it was heartwarming to see our Arab allies appreciate peace through strength. In Columbia, I joined Governor Henry McMaster to visit Fort Jackson to meet our reinforced troops. In Krakow, Poland, our allies appreciate the 5,000 U.S. troops to stop Putin aggression. In Barnwell, foreign investments at Swiss Krono have reached half a billion dollars. In Israel, citizens are more grateful for the President's moving of the Embassy to Jerusalem. Our prayers for Rush Limbaugh, an American icon of truth telling. ____________________
