Dear Friend,

Welcome back to my Week in Review newsletter. Please remember to follow me on Facebook, X, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube for regular updates on how I am serving the people of South Carolina!

This past Monday, our nation came together to honor the brave Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment remind us of the heavy price of liberty—one that cannot be measured by words alone.

May God bless the memory of our fallen heroes, comfort the families who carry their loss with strength, and continue to guide and protect our country.

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”

John 15:13

Keeping Our Country Strong and Competitive

Protecting jobs and securing our energy future starts with stopping radical activist delays on key energy projects. That’s why I’m proud to support the Protect LNG Act, which ensures strong leadership and a brighter future for South Carolina and the nation.

The Protect LNG Act doesn’t just keep the lights on, but keeps our country strong, competitive, and in control of its future.
