Today, we remember the innocent lives lost in Hamas’ horrific attack on Israel three years ago. We must never forget the evil we witnessed on Oct. 7 or the pain so many families continue to bear. I remain committed to standing with our friend and ally Israel and supporting its right to defend itself.

Great news for Western North Carolina! As an original cosponsor of the Great American Outdoors Act, I’m proud to have helped secure the funding for this $100 million investment to restore 75 miles of the Blue Ridge Parkway, supporting visitors and local communities.

“We are thrilled to have completed this work in advance of the busy fall season.” - Blue Ridge Parkway superintendent

Congratulations to Brian S. Meyers and Philip L. Aubart on their nominations to serve as District Court Judges for North Carolina’s Eastern and Middle Districts. Both are highly qualified attorneys who respect the rule of law and are committed to upholding the Constitution. I am confident they will serve the people of North Carolina with integrity and distinction. I thank President Trump for nominating them and look forward to working with Senator Ted Budd to advance their nominations and secure their confirmation by the full Senate.

I commend the Office of Inspector General for its comprehensive analysis of the Fed’s renovation costs. While the report makes clear there was no fraud or criminal wrongdoing by the Fed or any member of the Board, it also makes clear there should have been better procedures and project management expertise for a project of this scale. The entire federal government, from the executive branch to entities with statutory independence like the Fed, has an obligation to be transparent and good stewards of taxpayer dollars. I appreciate Chair Warsh’s commitment to both protecting Fed independence and inviting Congressional oversight.

On the second anniversary of Helene, we remember the lives lost and the families whose lives were forever changed.

Western North Carolina has made great strides in recovery, thanks to the resilience of its people and those who have stood beside them. But much work remains.

I will continue fighting to ensure North Carolinians are not forgotten and that WNC receives the support it needs to be made whole again.

This is not the end for the Clarity Act. We've made substantial bipartisan progress in large part because of the White House. This procedural motion allows us to continue working towards a positive outcome.

President Trump is right: communism is an inhuman ideology that brings only death and destruction.

Vladimir Putin is the latest authoritarian carrying forward that brutal Soviet legacy, aligning with Iran and North Korea to undermine democracy. We have seen the savagery of that ambition firsthand in Ukraine.

"Win-win" strategies work in the private sector, but there is no middle ground between freedom and totalitarian aggression. We cannot accommodate a dictator bent on destroying sovereign democracies. American strength and resolve are the only answers.

In the aftermath of September 11th, our NATO Allies invoked Article 5 for the first time in history to answer the call to defend freedom. We will never forget the 2,459 American servicemembers and 1,100 coalition servicemembers, including 457 from the UK and 158 from Canada, who made the ultimate sacrifice serving in Afghanistan. America remains forever grateful to Allies for answering the call and for their sacrifice.

25 years ago, our nation was forever changed.

Today, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, honor the heroes who answered the call and pray for the families who carry that loss.

We will never forget. 🇺🇸

As we approach the 25th anniversary of September 11th, I am reminded of the remarkable story of Operation Yellow Ribbon. When American airspace closed after the attacks, more than 6,500 stranded travelers were welcomed by the people of Gander, Newfoundland who housed and fed them until the crisis was over. In our darkest hour, our Canadian neighbors demonstrated extraordinary compassion.
