The Secure America Act helps keep our communities safe and our border secure. This is Chris. Watch as she shares the story of her brother, Joe, who was needlessly and tragically killed by a criminal illegal alien. Through her family's experience, Chris talks about the impact of her loss and why fully funding @DHSgov through our bill was so important to prevent further tragedies like the one they have suffered.

As more details emerge from the tragic B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base, we learned that this tragedy has sadly touched our Shreveport-Bossier community. Col. Gregory Watson of Haughton, a weapons systems officer, Air Force reservist, and a beloved member of our community was a victim of this terrible crash. Lt. Col. Gabriel Estrella, weapon systems officer, formerly served at Barksdale and was also a victim this great tragedy. Our prayers and deepest condolences are with the families, friends, and fellow service members of these patriots. ktbs.com/news/barksdale-loca…

Over 450,000 migrant children WENT MISSING under Biden, and nearly 300,000 STILL haven't been accounted for. Biden’s border crisis was a STAGGERING FAILURE and Democrats in Congress tried to defund the border patrol agents working to keep families safe. @POTUS and Republicans are cleaning up the mess. nypost.com/2026/06/11/us-new…

The Secure America Act helps keep our communities safe and our border secure. Too many innocent Americans have tragically lost their lives because of the illegal flow of deadly fentanyl through the previously opened border. Jesse was one of those. We are grateful to his mother Debbie for sharing her story and working courageously to ensure he is not forgotten, and others are not made to suffer such profound loss.

Thank you to the brave men and women of law enforcement who keep our communities safe. Democrats BLOCKED their paychecks and SHUT DOWN Homeland Security for months — all to deliver more DYSFUNCTION. Republicans will ALWAYS fight to protect and fund public safety.

Our hearts and prayers are with the loved ones of the eight brave Americans who lost their lives during a test mission today at Edwards Air Force Base. The roar of a B-52 is a familiar sound to all of us in Bossier City, Shreveport, and the surrounding region, and reminds us daily of the courage and sacrifice of those in uniform. As more details emerge, we mourn alongside our military community and pray for the families, friends, and fellow service members grieving this devastating loss. May God comfort those impacted and bless the men and women who serve our nation. cnn.com/2026/06/15/us/b-52-c…

As we were walking into the White House reception last night, I happened upon and took this photo of the great Lee Greenwood…taking a photo of Old Glory. 🇺🇸 Proud to be an AMERICAN!

The courage and conviction of John Quincy Adams inspire us still today. If you don’t know this great story from American history, you should. “Duty is ours. Results are God’s.” youtu.be/PUB_DHes_6A?is=_x9g…

Don’t believe the FAKE NEWS. When Republicans talk about fixing Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, we are not talking about reducing a single benefit. We’re talking about eliminating hundreds of billions in FRAUD and inefficiencies that are draining the programs and threatening their sustainability. The duty of Congress is to address the problems so we can PRESERVE the essential benefits that are relied upon by the American people. thehill.com/homenews/senate/…

The @ufc @Freedom250 event last night was an epic celebration of American grit and a tribute to our troops and first responders. The 90,000 fans at the White House and Ellipse, and tens of millions who watched the broadcast, enjoyed the once-in-a-lifetime show!

Great to catch up with @TGowdySC on Republicans’ accomplishments and the agenda ahead for the rest of Congress. No matter how many ways Democrats try to stop us, Republicans will never stop fighting to deliver results for the American people.

Honored to welcome Rep. James Gallagher this week to represent California’s 1st Congressional District. He’s an excellent addition to our small but consequential @HouseGOP majority, and we look forward to working with him to continue delivering results for the American people.

Every House Democrat voted AGAINST funding to strengthen border security and fully fund @DHSgov because they support OPEN BORDERS and allowing CRIMINAL illegal aliens into our country. House Republicans are laser-focused on keeping our border secure and protecting the American people. We're getting the job done.
The Secure America Act puts an END to Democrats’ political games, fully funding the Dept. of Homeland Security through the end of the term to strengthen border security and further enforce immigration laws. 🇺🇸

“Ghost students” are FRAUDSTERS posing as college students to steal financial aid. They’ve cost taxpayers **more than $350 MILLION** in the last five years. The House passed the No Aid for Ghost Students Act to STOP federal financial aid fraud and PROTECT taxpayer dollars.
Fake identities. Fake students. Real taxpayer money. Billions were stolen through federal student aid fraud. Today, the House passed the No Aid for Ghost Students Act to stop the abuse and protect taxpayer dollars. Student aid should fund students—not fraudsters.

What a terrible time for me to be away from the office, @EricSchmitz1! Thanks for the visit and iconic speech, @SeanAstin! #Rudy
As a lifelong Lord of the Rings fan, I never expected to hear Samwise's speech from the end of The Two Towers recited from the Speaker's Balcony. Yet here we are. Thanks for the visit, @SeanAstin!
