The past year has certainly been a memorable one—and, more importantly, a rewarding one. Beginning the year by leading the Laken Riley Act through the Senate and to President Trump’s desk—and seeing it become the first bill he signed into law in his second term—was just the start of what we have accomplished for Alabamians […]

Oct. 7, 2023, didn’t happen in a vacuum. The effects of the deadliest terrorist attack in Israel’s history reverberated across the globe, and this evil found its way into the dark corners of our homeland. The Jewish people have been persecuted for centuries, but many Jewish Americans are experiencing violence today that they’ve never witnessed […]

Republicans controlling the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives means we have a rare opportunity in front of us. For years before we swept to victory in November — and for the first two years of my Senate term — we were stuck. Despite our attempts to pass legislation and actually address […]

Our country is in the throes of a mental health crisis, and it’s our kids who are suffering the most. While social media is far from the only contributor, it stands out as a major culprit. As a mom, it worries me for my own kids and their friends. As a Senator, it makes me […]

The American people have spoken loud and clear. They delivered the Republican Party majorities in the United States Senate and the House of Representatives and sent President Donald J. Trump back to the White House. With this electoral triumph achieved, it is time to unite as a nation and get America back on track. The sweeping results at the ballot box confirm the American people want conservative, commonsense solutions to the challenges we all face. President Trump has proven time and again that […]

This week, I marked the one-year anniversary of my swearing-in to the United States Senate, capping a whirlwind twelve months of work on behalf of the people of Alabama. I’m proud of the fact that my team and I were able to hit the ground running on day one, working diligently not only to deliver […]

When I announced my candidacy for the United States Senate in 2021, I made my motivation clear: Wesley and I want to preserve the American Dream for our children – and for generations to come. Never before has this mission been more urgent than today. The American Dream is a timeless promise – one that […]

Today marks my 100th day in office as U.S. Senator for the great state of Alabama. To say that this responsibility is an honor of a lifetime would be an understatement. I continue to be humbled by the people of Alabama’s trust, confidence, and prayers, and as your Senator, I am working to make you […]

While the spike in violent crime nationwide last year has rightfully grabbed headlines, one heinous crime wave continues to go relatively under the radar. Human trafficking, already the second-largest criminal industry in the world at $32 billion annually, is also the fastest-growing. While this might seem like a distant problem to our state, the reality […]

Alabama doesn’t share a border with Mexico. But the border crisis has turned every state into a border state, and Alabama is paying a steep price for President Biden’s open borders policies. One of Biden’s first actions as President was to reverse the successful border policies of President Trump, and the result has been a […]

Joe Biden’s administration continues on a path of reckless overspending and dictatorial overreaching, and the American people are ultimately paying the price. The fight continues in Washington, D.C. right now over Democrats’ proposed $3.5 trillion spending boondoggle, which would further inflame inflation that is already hurting hardworking Alabama families across the board. However, the wasteful […]

American family farms are under attack – both from within our very own country and from China. On top of the inherent uncertainty that they already have to deal with, our nation’s family farms are now being undercut by Chinese-owned farms located within our borders. Chinese agricultural investments abroad grew more than tenfold from 2009-2018, […]

Saturday marks the 20th anniversary of when the world stopped turning, September 11, 2001. Two decades later, it is more important than ever that we never forget that day – both the incredible loss we experienced and how America responded with strength and unity. First and foremost, please join my family in pausing to remember […]

Tuesday, August 31 marks Overdose Awareness Day across the globe. This annual international campaign brings much needed attention to a topic that is critical for Alabama, touching every community in our state regardless of zip code. This is a crisis that is personal for so many Alabama families; the victims are moms and daughters, sons […]

Thursday was not only a deeply somber day in recent American history, it’s an infuriating one. Joe Biden has displayed gross incompetence and an inability to effectively lead our nation as commander-in-chief. He has shown that he can’t protect us overseas. He can’t protect us at our southern border. And he can’t protect us in […]

I’m sure like me, you’ve seen the horrific photos, videos and reports from Afghanistan. The helicopter on the roof of our retreating embassy. Those desperately seeking refuge clinging onto a plane for dear life… and then falling from the sky. These tragic images are a direct result of the Biden administration’s lack of a plan […]

The subject of mental health has been all the buzz on news broadcasts, sports shows and around dinner tables all over the world this past week. Frankly, it’s a conversation that is long overdue. As I travel our great state, I frequently hear from judges, circuit clerks, law enforcement officers and health care workers that […]

The American Dream is fueled by the aspiration that all Americans should have the opportunity to build a better life for themselves through work ethic, grit and the content of their character. This opportunity should not be defined by gender, race, religion, political belief – or zip code. Unfortunately, that Dream is being shackled for […]

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” Two hundred forty-five years later, these words that powered a revolution continue to fuel America, the greatest power for good […]

Alabama has a proud history of fostering innovation and inspiring great ideas that have transformed how we live, work and do business. From the Saturn V rocket that took us to the moon to Shipt’s grocery delivery app that has now become a household name. Through the leadership of Representative Bill Poole and Senator Greg […]
