Nothing is simpler than passing the SAVE America Act.
The House has passed it multiple times. The Senate needs to pass it immediately and send it to the President’s desk.
The integrity of our elections depends on it.
During Gold Star Families Remembrance Week, we remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country and honor the families who have sacrificed alongside them.
May God bless our Gold Star families and the memory of their loved ones.
Today, I sent a letter to @WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert urging the league to define women as biological females and establish biological sex as the basis for eligibility in women’s basketball.
Women’s sports should be for women only. It’s that simple.
Nearly $1 BILLION in funding for illegal aliens and radical, woke programs RESCINDED.
Some of the most harmful uses of taxpayer dollars — including “pet therapy” for alien children and improving access to transgender care for minors — CANCELLED.
America First under @POTUS. 🇺🇸
Wasteful funding? Rescinded.
We will use every fiscal tool at our disposal to deliver savings for the American people.

When a system is left vulnerable to fraud and abuse, the only winners are the criminals taking advantage of it.
Fraudulent Obamacare coverage for more than 760,000 enrollees does nothing to help the Americans who depend on these programs.

Proud to earn an A rating from @NSSF!
In Congress, I will continue defending North Carolinians’ God-given Second Amendment rights and the freedom of lawful gun owners to protect themselves and their families.

Yesterday, I was honored to join some of our local heroes for lunch in Richmond County. It was a special afternoon hearing their stories and sharing how we’re working in Congress to support them and their families.
As the son of a World War II veteran, caring for those who have served is especially personal to me. These men and women have given so much to our country, and they deserve the health care, benefits, and support they have earned through their service.
I'll continue doing my part to ensure our country fulfills its promises to them.
When left-wing advocacy groups use their platforms to push a radical agenda, it is no surprise they would be against the SAVE America Act.
Democrats are persistent in protecting the ballots of illegal aliens and other ineligible voters.

Jack Smith took an oath to defend the Constitution. He knew about the protections afforded to members of Congress but disregarded them to spy on his political opponents.
Our Founders would be appalled by this level of two-tiered justice.

Dem fundraising giant ActBlue’s own legal counsel was sounding the alarm about illegal activity within the company.
If there was nothing to hide, why silence the very lawyer responsible for ensuring compliance?
Pastor Ezra Jin’s release this summer was a victory for the right to believe and worship without fear.
As President Trump meets with President Xi this week, I urge him to continue defending religious freedom and advocating for those who remain unjustly detained by the CCP.
Pastor Ezra Jin, with translation by @GraceJDrexel, gives testimony of his persecution and imprisonment at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party.
"18 pastors and church leaders were criminally detained at the detention center... our basic rights were severely restricted..."
On July 3, I was taken out of the detention center, charges were dropped, and I was put on a plane bound for the United States. "I learned this happened because President Trump had specifically requested my release from President Xi Jinping during his visit to China..."
"I cannot stop thinking and worrying about my 8 fellow church leaders who remain in prison... and quite a few other pastors from other churches..."
I hope that this week's meeting between President Trump and Xi Jinping "can produce genuine consensus and a breakthrough in improving China's human rights situation and ending the persecution of religious believers."
@CECCgov
Great meeting with @ncrealtors to discuss the housing challenges facing families across our state.
Every young North Carolinian should have the opportunity to own a home and build a future.
I’ll continue working to make homeownership more affordable and attainable for the next generation.
The abuse within the H-1B visa program has undercut hardworking Americans with cheap foreign labor.
That was never part of the American Dream.
Honored to earn an A+ from @NumbersUSA and proud to cosponsor @RepEliCrane’s End H-1B Visa Abuse Act to put American workers FIRST.
🚨 13 Members of Congress have taken action to crack down on the H-1B visa scam and END the OPT program.
By cosponsoring @RepEliCrane’s End H-1B Visa Abuse Act (H.R. 8443), they’ve earned an A+ NumbersUSA Grade in our “Stop Excess Work Visas” category.
Wonderful afternoon with seniors at the 29th Annual @unionCoSheriff Senior Fraud Awareness Luncheon!
It was a privilege to share how we’re working in Congress to protect what they’ve earned, from the enhanced senior tax deduction to legislation cracking down on scammers.
The Democratic Party has completely lost its mind.
They want Trump out of office by ANY means necessary—even if that means an assassination or military coup.
Their agenda has reached the farthest extremes of radicalism.
After three assassination attempts, you would think they would turn down the temperature. Instead, they are owning it and fueling the political division in our country just to stay in power.
Replying to @StratPolitics
We polled five routes for Trump to leave office before the end of his term. A plurality of Dems support four of them, including a military coup and death by natural causes. The only one underwater, an assassination, is still supported by 29%.
American education needs a HARD reset.
Since 1980, we have spent more than $3 trillion on the Department of Education, with nothing to show.
More money and more bureaucracy have not produced the results families were promised. It's time to get back to the basics.
