Investing in our national defense not only keeps us safe, but also creates jobs around the country. Camden is a prime example, a community proudly building the Arsenal of Freedom alongside new opportunities for thousands of Arkansans. https://t.co/Nm2al7S8Z9
I join all Arkansas in praying for a full recovery of Fort Smith Police Officer Kyle Newman. His family, fellow officers, and entire Fort Smith community are in our thoughts during this difficult time.
President Trump, @SecWar, and our brave troops are making America safer by successfully executing top ISIS terrorists who seek to harm our homeland. Let this serve as a warning: if you murder and persecute Christians and Americans, the United States military will find you.
I’ll continue to work with the Arkansas Oil Marketers Association to make energy more affordable for Arkansans. Thank you for stopping by. https://t.co/3jOBgnECX9
For years, our tax code has encouraged hiring foreign workers instead of Americans. @DHSgov is cracking down on this fraud, but more can be done. Congress should pass my OPT Fair Tax Act. https://t.co/onDpY26Qj0
For years, close family members of terrorists have benefited from U.S. visas. We shouldn’t host the relatives of people who attack our county—my bill ends this absurd practice. https://t.co/xqaSkvG8De
The Iranian regime is in an economic chokehold. President Trump’s naval blockade is costing Tehran $500,000,000 every single day and has halted 90% of their maritime trade.
We owe our gratitude to Arkansas’s teachers, who help educate and mentor the next generation. Thank you, National Teacher Policy Cabinet, for your important work. https://t.co/X8QldT3LFZ
Relatives of terrorists have no business being in our country. My bill would revoke visas from family members of terrorists to keep Arkansans safer. https://t.co/ZXQK8Vibqw
To the remnants of the communist Castro regime: I advise against the Maduro retirement plan.
