Washington, D.C. – In his first 100 days, President Donald J. Trump has fought to reignite our economy like never before. He slashed Democrats’ far-left regulations, unleashed American energy production, and secured trillions of dollars in investments to support American workers and create new jobs.
This week, I spoke on the Senate floor about the President’s efforts to usher in a new Golden Age for America, and we are already seeing incredible results. In Tennessee alone, we’ve seen hundreds of millions of dollars in new investments secured to boost manufacturing in places like Mt. Juliet, Selmer, and Lewisburg.
l will continue to work with President Trump to stand up for hardworking Tennesseans and Americans. With strong leadership back in the White House, we can be confident that our best days are ahead.

In just his first 100 days in office, President Trump has delivered on his promise to secure the southern border after the Biden-Harris administration allowed more than 10 million illegal aliens to invade our country. However, not everyone is on board, including our nation’s largest social media company. According to recent reports, Facebook is allowing a black market to thrive on its platform where illegal aliens can buy rideshare and delivery driver accounts from credentialed users.
