The Albany Movement began in the fall of 1961, starting with just three young members of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee.
During Black History Month, I would like to highlight the rich contribution that Middle and Southwest Georgia has made to our country’s history.
Albany is known as the as the cultural hub of southwest Georgia and played a crucial role in our country's history and Civil Rights Movement.
All of this makes our nation stronger from coast-to-coast, across industries, and in public service – from Congress and our courts to the White House and our Armed Forces as well as state and local governments throughout the country.
Congress continues to recognize that Scouting engages young men and women, instills in them values, builds their character, and promotes leadership.
I am proud to join my colleagues, fellow Eagle Scouts and co-Chairs of the bipartisan Congressional Scouting Caucus, Representatives Thompson, and Sessions, in introducing a resolution, this week, to celebrate Scouting America.

Yesterday, I voted for a funding bill that reopened the federal government and allows Congress to focus on ICE and protect the public's safety.

Protect yourself & raise awareness!
TSA would like to remind everyone about REAL ID and CONFIRM ID. Know before you go!
Today, we discussed the progress the U.S. Space Force has made & how Congress can support its continued success through improving military family childcare, financial security, healthcare, & more.
I just met with Chief Master Sergeant of the Space Force, John Bentivegna. We last spoke at the U.S. House Appropriations Committee’s Quality of Military Life Hearing last April.
Today, we commemorate the life and enduring legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His unwavering fight for civil rights continues to motivate us in our relentless quest for a more free and just nation.
My top priority is making America more affordable again for hard-working Georgians and am working with my colleagues, Democrats and Republicans, to make sure that rural communities are not left behind when it comes to financial services and resources that support our entrepreneurs.
We also talked about how the Administration is not honoring their commitments to rural Americans and how they would like the Administration to have better lines of communication with lenders.
This week, I met with the National Rural Lender's Roundtable and discussed how they are working to help ensure rural communities and businesses have access to the capital they need to grow and thrive.
At a time when Georgians are asking Congress and the President to focus on affordability because they face skyrocketing healthcare costs, high food prices, and expensive housing, we need stability and not chaos like we saw yesterday.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time this Administration acted haphazardly in its continued disregard of Congress to break the partnerships we have built with communities across the country that empower hard-working Americans to improve their quality of life.
... these SAMHSA grants should never have been jeopardized in the first place.
While I am glad that Secretary Kennedy heard the outrage of elected officials, community leaders, accountability courts, law enforcement, patient advocates, & families across our country who are coping with the challenges of addiction and mental health, ...
Yesterday, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. reinstated billions of dollars in Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) grants that he had cancelled less than 24 hours earlier.
