I was honored to escort President Trump into the House last night on behalf of Arkansans. It was an outstanding speech on a great start to the administration with the best yet to come.

Illegal aliens operating commercial vehicles threaten the safety of all Arkansans. That’s why I’ve introduced legislation to ensure every commercial driver is fully qualified.

I’m pleased to see the defense budget increases recently announced by President Lai.    Taiwan is a strong and reliable partner to America, and this decision is an important step in ensuring peace and stability in the region.

This week millions of Americans will gather around a table with loved ones, give thanks, and eat turkey. I’m thankful for Arkansas’s turkey producers for making our Thanksgiving traditions possible.

Communist China is engaging in one of the biggest military peacetime buildups in history with the clear goal of threatening American interests. Let me be clear: we will not allow a Communist dictator to threaten our friends in East Asia.

Our military needs the proper funding to do their job and keep Americans safe. Congress needs to increase the annual defense budget to reflect the threat posed by countries like Communist China.

Too many of our military bases and large civilian gatherings are unprotected from potential drone strikes. Congress needs to give local law enforcement and @DeptofWar the tools they need to keep Americans safe.

Arkansas’s farmers and ranchers must have the necessary assistance to get through next season so they can continue operating for generations to come. I’ll continue working with President Trump to get our farmers the help they need.

For far too long, our farmers haven’t gotten a fair shake, but President @realDonaldTrump is working to help and make it right. I’m proud that Arkansas can stand with them and do our part. My Administration is making sure they aren’t saddled with an even bigger tax bill on top

Arkansas farmers are still recovering from Joe Biden’s disastrous economic policies which raised the costs of machinery, fertilizer, and other inputs. I will continue to work with @USDA to provide much needed assistance to our farmers.
