here in DC this week is Police Week, and we are reflecting on the brave men and women who serve us in Tennessee and also across this country, where they are serving our communities every day with courage, with integrity, and with honor. We…
Well, they continue with this political charade, and we have now passed a budget resolution that is going to open the path for us for a targeted public safety reconciliation bill that is going to fund these issues through President Trump's…
Well here we are. And for more than 2 months, our colleagues and friends across the aisle have decided that they were going to hold the Department of Homeland Security shut down, kind of hold them hostage. And for that same 2 months…
well, today is tax day. It is not a day that conservatives usually celebrate, but this year it is a little bit different. And that is thanks to the working families tax cuts, the Big Beautiful Bill, that are allowing individuals to keep a…
we are having quite a debate, and I do believe that the American people are learning quite a bit about the Democratic Members of the Senate and the Republican Members of the Senate as we go through this debate on the SAVE America Act. Now…
I had spoken a little bit earlier about what was happening with Homeland Security funding. One of the things that we are hearing from so many school groups and church groups and people and families who are coming up for spring break is…
I am going to have some comments on the SAVE America Act, and I think it is appropriate that we move forward on that legislation. First, I want to talk a little bit about what has happened with the Department of Homeland Security. We are…
one of the things I noticed about today is that it is March 4. That means it was exactly 8 months ago that President Trump signed into law the Working Families Tax Cut Act. Now, we knew that this was a massive win for the American people…
new court documents that were made public last week revealed that nearly one in five--one in five--young teenagers have reported seeing ``nudity and sexual images on Instagram'' that they did not want to see. That is one in five--things…
We have had quite a feisty afternoon here on the floor, and I am so pleased that my colleagues have called out some of the actions that we have witnessed from the other side. It is beyond me that they would want illegal aliens to vote in…
today, I rise to commend faith groups across the country for joining together in prayer for our Nation, as we near America's 250th anniversary. Causes like the Nehemiah Alliance's National 52-Day Rebuild Initiative offer a meaningful…
12,937 is the number of homes and businesses in Nashville that are still without power in the wake of Winter Storm Fern. Eleven days after the storm hit, still, 12,937 customers of Nashville Electric Service are still in the dark. At its…
One of the things that has really captured the attention of the American people in this new year is the amount of fraud that has been uncovered in Minnesota. What we have learned is that now the total has climbed to $9 billion--still…
we heard so much over the weekend from Tennesseans who were reaching out, just so saddened by the series of truly devastating attacks we saw in Syria. Two of our National Guard members from Iowa lost their lives. Indeed, we know that right…
I am so pleased that my colleague from Oklahoma is on the floor and is talking about this issue that affects so many Americans. Indeed, in Tennessee, we have seen the impact of this. As my colleague mentioned, our friends across the aisle…
Last week, the day before Thanksgiving, our Nation's Capital experienced a horrific tragedy. Just blocks from the White House, two National Guard members were ambushed by a gunman. One of the victims, 20-year-old Sarah Beckstrom…
what the Senator fails to mention is that the cities with the high crime problem are blue cities. They are blue cities. Also, what he should know is that 63 percent of the residents of Memphis support having the Memphis Safe Task Force…
SNAP benefits have been in the news and a topic of much discussion, and those benefits for over 40 million Americans lapsed over the weekend because the Democrats have chosen to hold government funding hostage for political…
Verizon willfully handed over my call logs to the Biden FBI without hesitation, empowering Jack Smith’s witch hunt targeting Republicans for political gain.
Today marks nearly a full month since the Schumer shutdown started. That was really the time when the Democrats decided to just go on strike and filibuster a clean CR. What has happened is our Federal law enforcement is being forced to…
earlier this month, we discovered one of the worst abuses of government power in our Nation's history: The FBI, under President Biden, spied on eight U.S. Senators. I was one of those eight. Now, what we have learned so far is this: The…
we know that under Joe Biden and Chris Wray's leadership, the FBI, it turns out, was truly rotten to the core. In many ways, they oversaw the worst political corruption of the justice system in our Nation's history, and now we have proof…
well, I am coming to the floor today as we find ourselves in the middle of the Schumer shutdown, and this is a time where, indeed, instead of being in the Schumer shutdown and having these shenanigans taking place, we should be in the…
Looks like ol’ Charlie spoke his fate into existence. Hate begets hate. ZERO sympathy.
