Senate Democrats have now voted 14 times to keep the government closed. By refusing to support Republicans' clean funding bill, they are putting our air safety at risk, disrupting travel, and turning a blind eye to the TSA workers who are protecting this nation without pay.
Today, TSA security officers and air traffic controllers missed a paycheck. Senate Democrats need to prioritize these essential workers, put air safety first, and vote to reopen the government.

As a longtime champion of the U.S. semiconductor industry, I'm proud to see American ingenuity driving efforts to supercharge domestic chip production. Wishing @substrate the best as they work to re-establish our nation as a global industry leader & bolster our national security!
Substrate co-founder James Proud is fixated on thwarting China’s advancements in semiconductors, but the hurdles are high

For years, I've called out the CCP's persecution of religious minorities—including Tibetans & the Dalai Lama, whom I visited last year in India. Proud to cosponsor this bill to help stop the abuse & protect the right of Christians, Tibetans, & all people to worship & live freely.
The CCP jails Christians, burns churches, and silences faith. America will not stay silent. This is why we are introducing the Combatting the Persecution of Religious Groups in China Act with @SenTedBuddNC — to sanction every CCP official behind these abuses.

To all the companies propping up Russia’s war machine: You’ve been put on notice. This is what a PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH presidency looks like! Thank you @POTUS!

Putin is discovering there will be consequences for his belligerence in the face of President Trump's good-faith efforts to secure peace. I commend the president and Secretary Bessent on imposing these sanctions, which will deal a significant blow to the Kremlin's war machine,
Treasury is imposing further sanctions as a result of Russia’s lack of serious commitment to a peace process to end the war in Ukraine. Today’s actions increase pressure on Russia’s energy sector and degrade the Kremlin’s ability to raise revenue for its war machine and support

In Texas alone, Democrats' shutdown is projected to cost $6.3 billion per month, wipe out 4,100 jobs, and force up to 218,000 federal workers to serve without pay. Senate Democrats know they could end this pain TODAY, but they choose to cater to the most radical parts of their
In newly reported remarks, some Democrat insiders are blaming the far Left for the failure of Senate Democrats to vote to end the federal government shutdown. “People are going to get hammered,” an anonymous Democrat said. @SignalAdams

Today's meeting between President Trump and Prime Minister Albanese proved the U.S.-Australia alliance is as strong as ever. The timely new mineral deal will strengthen both of our economies and bolster U.S. national security by reducing our reliance on the CCP, just as it works

It was a pleasure to meet with @AndriyYermak ahead of President Trump’s meeting with President Zelensky this week. We discussed ways the U.S. can continue to help Ukraine push back on Russian aggression, including through weapons and counter-drone technology, sanctions, and more.

I’m consistently amazed by the cutting-edge projects & innovation at @TAMU — & this announcement is no exception. The bold partnership between Last Energy & RELLIS will help ensure Texas leads the way in powering our nation with reliable, clean, & safe energy for years to come.
The Texas A&M University System and @LastEnergy have announced the future deployment of a 5-megawatt microreactor at @relliscampus. The partnership will demonstrate safe, low-power nuclear operations with potential to generate electricity for the grid: https://t.co/MiK6aWzJgS

As these courageous hostages return to their families, we also remember those who will not make it home alive. I know President Trump will not give up on them either until their bodies are brought home and given the dignity they deserve. May their memories be a blessing.

Praise God, the nightmare is finally over. I'm filled with relief, joy, and gratitude to see these 20 individuals embraced by their families after 738 grueling days in captivity. Thank you, @POTUS, for fighting for these innocent lives — and for peace, against all odds.

This is an issue very close to my heart as well. As a father of five, I can't imagine the pain these children's families go through, and I'll continue advocating for them until Putin stops his vile behavior and returns these children to their homeland.

Since the start of the war, Russia has abducted thousands of Ukrainian children from their homeland and indoctrinated many to serve as soldiers. I'm incredibly grateful for a First Lady who cares deeply about these children and is working to bring them home. Thank you, @FLOTUS.

It's been an honor to serve for more than two decades in Congress and defend our nation from global threats. I enjoyed sitting down with the @TexasTribune to discuss some of my proudest moments and my hopes for the country. Read the piece from @birenbomb⬇️ https://t.co/FdtVjx88n7

Another fantastic deal! For years, Russia and China have worked together expand their footprints in the arctic, which is rapidly becoming a key front in the great power competition. I applaud the president for striking this MoU with our arctic ally, Finland, to enhance U.S.
.@POTUS strikes a deal to leverage Finnish expertise in constructing up to four Arctic Security Cutters — U.S. Coast Guard icebreakers — in Finland: "We need these ships very badly because we have a lot of territory... It's going to be a great partnership."

Senate Democrats could vote at any moment to pass Republicans' clean, non-partisan government funding bill. Instead, they continue to ignore Americans' pain for their own gain.
Our soldiers, sailors, airmen, & Marines, who will soon miss a paycheck thanks to the Schumer shutdown, will find little comfort in the fact that life is getting better for Senator Schumer.
