Since then, over 200,000 Georgians have dropped healthcare insurance which makes it harder for hospitals and health clinics to stay open and puts added stress on local emergency rooms and taxpayers who are left footing the bill.

Unfortunately, healthcare is becoming more expensive and less accessible. Last summer, the "Big, Ugly Bill" gutted Medicare, Medicaid, and nutrition programs while also failing to renew ACA tax credits in order to pay for tax breaks that overwhelmingly benefit billionaires.
I was happy to join the Macon community for the groundbreaking ceremony at the Unionville Clinic. Through a collaboration between Keryx Ministries, Inc., and Mercer University medical school, the clinic will provide free medical care close to home for thousands of people.
Macon is home to the Tubman African American Museum, and for more than four decades it has celebrated African American art, history, and culture as well as inspired positive change in our community and those who visit.
She returned to the South over a dozen times, courageously guiding about 70 enslaved people to freedom along the Underground Railroad and helping dozens more on their journeys.
Each March 10th, America commemorates Harriet Tubman Day.
She was one of our country's most influential abolitionists and social justice leaders. Born into slavery in 1822, Tubman escaped to Philadelphia at the age of 29.
As we continue to celebrate Women's History Month, let us remember Harriet Tubman.
It is important that we protect our land now so that we have access to clean drinking water, fresh produce and meat, and construction material for years to come.
I will continue to work in Congress to make sure that USDA provides the support that our hardworking Georgia farmers and ranchers need to be the best stewards of our land that they can be.
On Wednesday, I met with two Georgia farmers to discuss their strong efforts in land conservation and how I can work in Congress to make sure that farmers and people across the state understand how conservation practices can protect Americans’ access to food and timber.
I commend Chief Wolfe for his service and look forward to working with all the senior enlisted leaders to continue making forward progress and address the issues identified in the bipartisan Quality of Life Panel results.

As a member of the Congressional Military Family Caucus, I understand that military readiness and quality-of-life for our armed forces are inseparable.
On Tuesday, I spoke with Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force David R. Wolfe about improving the wellbeing of our service members.
Instead of working with Democrats, Congressional Republican leaders are holding disaster relief, national security, cybersecurity, and training hostage in order to extract even more money for ICE and CBP without any oversight or accountability.
ICE and CBP already have billions of dollars for FY26 provided by last summer’s big, ugly bill.
This would allow us to reopen these vital government agencies while still working to protect Americans’ civil rights and put commonsense guardrails to rein in ICE’s & CBP’s aggressive actions which have hurt, and even killed, American citizens and law-abiding immigrant families.
... the Science & Technology Directorate (S&T), the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG).
My colleagues and I have offered a Homeland Security funding bill that fully funds FEMA, TSA, the Federal Protective Service, the Secret Service, the U.S. Coast Guard, the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC),...
As an Eagle Scout, I know how vital it is for young people to have a place they feel heard and where they can develop their skills and passions. All youth, no matter their beliefs or backgrounds, deserve opportunities to learn and to have positive experiences with adult role models.
