ICYMI - Sen. Budd and @RepTroyNehls: Supersonic aviation modernization is key to US aerospace leadership.

A heartbreaking, senseless act of radical antisemitic terror was committed in our nation’s own capital city last night. Amy Kate and I are praying for the families and loved ones of the young couple who tragically lost their lives - Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim.

Proud to support @SJAFB as it becomes a Deployable Combat Wing — bringing 200 new Airmen & families to Goldsboro. With a growing mission, Seymour Johnson is more vital than ever, and I’m working to ensure that they have the combat aircraft they need to succeed!

It’s time to bring our air traffic control system into the 21st century — and turn a speed limit in the sky into a sound limit on the ground. Legalizing civil supersonic flight should be part of modernizing U.S. airspace. The time is now.

RT @SenateGOP: Republicans want to preserve and strengthen Medicaid. Waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid puts the program at risk for seni….

For 52 years, we’ve had a speed limit in the sky. It’s time to cut red tape and flight time coast-to-coast. @boomaero proved supersonic flight is possible without a sonic boom reaching the ground. My SAM Act would legalize civil supersonic flight over land.

During National Police Week, we honor the courageous men and women of law enforcement who serve and protect our communities throughout North Carolina and across the nation. Thank you for your unwavering dedication and sacrifice. I am proud to #BackTheBlue. #NationalPoliceWeek

As threats to the United States increase, we cannot afford delays. I urge my Democrat colleagues to stop blocking highly qualified Pentagon nominees from receiving an immediate vote on the Senate floor.

To maintain U.S. leadership in aerospace innovation, we must modernize air traffic control systems and remove regulatory barriers on new tech adoption. Today, I introduced the Supersonic Aviation Modernization Act to lift decades-old restrictions on civil supersonic flight.

In March, I led a bipartisan, bicameral push for clear USDA guidance on disaster relief funds. Last week, @SecRollins delivered—with a plan to get aid to our farmers. A big win for NC ag!.

North Carolina’s workforce & infrastructure make it an ideal place for biopharma success. Today, @Roche & @genentech announced a $700M investment in a new state-of-the-art facility in Holly Springs. This is another win for our state's economic growth.

Encouraged to hear American citizen Edan Alexander, held hostage by Hamas since 2023, is on his way home. But our work isn't done—we must keep pushing for the release of ALL remaining hostages, including the four deceased American hostages still held by Hamas.

The United States is competing with China for leadership in AI and future economic strength and influence. America is by far more innovative, but if we don’t deploy AI fast enough, the Chinese Communist Party will set the rules of the road.

ICYMI - Sen. Ted Budd: How we can get more Americans the work skills they need.

The AI race will be won or lost on our ability to generate power. Once reconciliation is complete, Congress must turn to permitting reform to unleash American energy dominance for economic growth and our national security.

We cannot build tomorrow’s workforce based on the blueprint for yesterday’s economy. My PELL Act will open the door for millions of Americans to gain in-demand skills, while creating more family-sustaining careers.

During Teacher Appreciation Week, we recognize and thank the educators who shape future generations of leaders — one student at a time.

Chemical abortions destroy human life and often come with serious or life-threatening side effects for women. The FDA needs to reevaluate the medical and societal risks involved with allowing mifepristone on the market.

More than 10 percent of women in the U.S. who use mifepristone experience a serious adverse event.

Adverse events from mifepristone are roughly 22 percent higher than the FDA currently recognizes.
