| Honored to Lead
This week, I had the honor of officially becoming Chairman of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee. It is certainly a privilege to take on this role, and I’m eager to begin addressing the challenges and opportunities ahead. I’m committed to working towards solutions that strengthen our economy and create pathways for prosperity in every community across the country.
Working to Make America Great Again
This week, my Senate colleagues and I met with President Trump to discuss how we can deliver on his America First agenda. Senate Republicans are ready to work with President Trump to secure our southern border, expand economic opportunity, and Make America Great Again!
There is so much work to be done, and I remain committed to collaborating with President Trump to secure lasting solutions for the American people.
Meeting with President Trump’s Nominees
I continue to have the privilege of meeting with various nominees selected by President Trump to serve in critical positions throughout this new administration. It was great to sit down with Governor Kristi Noem to discuss how to reverse the dangerous Biden-Harris open borders policies. Solving the crisis on our southern border starters with a commonsense America first mindset. Read my full statement here!
Throughout his career, Paul Atkins has championed policies that promote capital formation and job creation, and his extensive experience in financial regulation will be critical to reversing the harm Gary Gensler has done to our capital markets and U.S. economy. I look forward to working with my colleagues to quickly consider his nomination to lead the Securities and Exchange Commission. Read my full statement here!
