U.S. Senator for Kentucky | I fight for the Constitution, individual liberty and the freedoms that make this country great.
Bowling Green, KY
Joined November 2010
The Somali fraud exposed a broken system. Instead of reform, Washington spent $5B more. If Republicans can’t cut a fraction of the deficit, they aren’t serious about debt. See how your senator voted:

67 senators, 20 of them Republicans, voted to protect earmarks and kill @BasedMikeLee's amendment. That’s how Washington buys votes and buries taxpayers in debt. More pork. More pet projects. Less accountability.

Washington shouldn’t run the welfare state on autopilot while the national debt soars past $38T. That’s why I introduced the End Welfare for Non-Citizens Act to stop taxpayer dollars from being spent on refugees, asylees & illegal immigrants. Let’s protect American workers &

The funding rose from less than $2 billion in fiscal year 2021, the last year of President Donald Trump’s first term, to nearly $9 billion the next fiscal year – the first year of former President...

America’s resources should defend Americans. H.R. 260 stops the flow of cash to failed missions overseas and puts our security and our taxpayers back at the center of policy.

For too long, foreign aid has meant endless spending with no accountability. H.R. 260 changes that. Taxpayers deserve to know their money is not fueling corruption or terror abroad.

No country or NGO that props up the Taliban should ever receive U.S. tax dollars. This amendment makes that principle law. America must not bankroll those who side with our enemies.

H.R. 260 finally ends Washington’s blind commitment to relocate Afghans without adequate safeguards. We’ve already seen the cost. One National Guardsman is dead at the hands of a terrorist who entered through resettlement. We must put security first.

🧵If H.R. 260 becomes law, $631M meant for Afghanistan reconstruction will be clawed back to the Treasury. After twenty years of war and failure, not another dollar should ever reach the Taliban.

Call your senators and ask them to support Rand’s amendment!
I’ve filed an amendment to stop over $5 billion in taxpayer-funded welfare for refugees hidden in the minibus bill. If it fails, your money funds cash benefits, healthcare, daycare, and job programs. The amendment is germane and can pass by a simple majority—if Republicans stay

This is simple math. Billions were spent unchecked. No one was was held accountable. And what's worse is Congress wants to send more. Urge your Senator to back my amendment. Stop the waste. Protect your tax dollars.

Billions lost. Zero accountability. Now more money on the way. Call your Senator at 202-224-3121 and tell them to support my amendment to strike refugee funding until the fraud is fully investigated.

I would say Spain needs a modern El CID . . . But even the hero who defeated the Moors also fought for both sides. Is it irony or is it kismet that Spanish socialists will destroy Spain one way or another. Spain legalizes up to 500,000 undocumented

Spain announced plans to grant legal status to 500,000 undocumented migrants over three years, taking the opposite approach from Trump's border crackdown.

Families are cutting back while Congress keeps spending like there is no limit. Billions of taxpayer dollars funded these refugee programs and no one has been held accountable. My amendment stops the flow of funds.
