Tennessee has a “really good chance” at being one of two states in the running for a $50 billion nuclear energy campus.

Medicaid, healthcare outcomes and the cost of healthcare are of the utmost importance to our states. Not only because they are such a big piece of our budget but because it is about serving some of the most vulnerable in our communities.

Our state answered the call during the Manhattan Project and helped shape the course of history, and Tennessee stands ready once again to advance the safe, reliable energy solutions our nation depends on.

Tennessee has shown we can lead the nation in innovation while protecting hardworking families from higher utility bills, & we’re grateful for your leadership to advance policies that strengthen our economy & secure America’s future.

This measure is set to take effect July 1, 2027.

President Trump is right to hold the Iranian regime accountable.

You gotta remember maps are drawn by representatives elected by the people.

I think it’s really important that the courts will weigh in on this. The legislature has followed the authority and the process that they believe fairly and appropriately divides districts, as they have done for generations as has happened…

I think that rulings across the country set up the scenario for states to redistrict.

I think the General Assembly had the obligation and the authority to look at maps.

I have conversations with the president on a regular basis about what he wants. But this is about what members of the General Assembly want.

These scurrilous and false arguments that have been made against this bill--now, although some of these arguments have been mingled with truth, they are almost entirely false. They are built on lies. They are built on a blatant…

The fact that the acting president and CEO is a DOGE individual doesn't disqualify him from making this statement. It is corruption. Sure, it has been going on since the eighties, but so have a lot of things that are corrupt. We must…

The courts have universally determined that it is lawful to carry out the jury's sentence of execution given to Mr. Black for the heinous murders of Angela Clay and her daughters Lakeisha, age 6, and Latoya, age 9.

This amendment completes the half-baked task performed by the House of Representatives on these subsidies. Now, remember, the ``green new scam'' was adopted in 2022 without a single Republican vote. Not one Republican in the House, not one…

Energy manufacturing jobs survive and thrive when there is less Federal intrusion, not more, to my friend and colleague from Georgia. What is more, the American people want less. The American people understand that, with the Federal…

I respect my friend and colleague from Oregon, but I disagree with every word he just uttered including ``but,'' ``and,'' and ``the.'' Look, the energy and natural resources title of this bill is one of the most consequential pieces of…

Proud that In-N-Out Burger is fully relocating its California headquarters to the Volunteer State.

Vouchers will be only available to Tennessee citizens.

I've long believed we can have the best public schools and give parents a choice in their child's education, regardless of income or ZIP code. Today is a milestone in advancing education in Tennessee.

Look, we are in fact at the last effective legislative day of the year and of the Congress. And what my colleague from Oklahoma is saying is that we should call it up and pass it tonight. Now, whether he thinks I should have been aware of…

It is December 20. We are on, likely, the last legislative break before we break for the Christmas holidays. The first time I personally became aware of this issue was this afternoon. So it is not as if one could argue that there has been…

I recognize the presence of my friend and colleague the senior Senator from Tennessee.

Until we can undo that underlying trauma, we are just going to be treating the symptoms.
