Shana Tova (Happy New Year) to my Jewish friends this Rosh Hashanah.
Georgia’s ports are crucial to transporting goods into and out of the state, which grows our businesses and Georgia’s economy.
This effort is a long-term investment in securing Georgia’s role as a leading hub for shipping along the East Coast and is expected to generate thousands of jobs in many industries, including logistics, transportation, and manufacturing.
Last week, I met with the Georgia Ports Authority Board and Leadership to discuss how Georgia’s port expansion initiatives are progressing, including next steps for increasing the Savannah Harbor’s capacity.
Yesterday, I met with Youth Advocate Programs, Inc. to discuss juvenile justice & prevention programs that give youth the tools to succeed. When we support our youth, we build stronger communities, safer towns, & a brighter future for Georgia. #YouthEmpowerment #GA02 #FutureFocused
Hurricane Helene hurt agroforestry growers & wreaked havoc on communities. I helped secure federal disaster relief & continue to work with business & community leaders to ensure we grow back stronger together.
Yesterday, I met with the Southeastern Lumber Manufacturers Association. Georgia is a nationwide leader in lumber & forest products.
#HeadStart & #EarlyHeadStart provide millions of children with physical, cognitive, social, & emotional development skills & a strong start in life. Yesterday, I met with Head Start leaders from Southwest Georgia to discuss how Congress can ensure they have the resources to help Georgia’s families.
Happy Birthday, U.S. Air Force! Established on Sep. 18, 1947, it ensures that when there is trouble, America dominates in the air. GA02 is home to Robins AFB, and I proudly support all Americans who sacrifice & serve our country by joining the ranks of Airmen who protect our country.
Behind every crop are hardworking farmers & farmworkers. They make GA one of the top watermelon producers in America. Today, I met with the National Watermelon Association 🍉 to discuss bipartisan solutions to support American agriculture.
Today, I introduced the Military Housing Performance Insight Act with Congresswoman Kiggans (R-VA) to improve military family housing.

Today is #ConstitutionDay, a reminder of the rights & freedoms all Americans enjoy and for which we are responsible & accountable to one another. The Founders created this living document & I will continue to uphold & defend it.
Georgia Ag 🌱 isn’t just business, it’s a way of life. It helps feed, clothe, & beautify America. I met w/ AmericanHort today to discuss how Congress can invest in the research, provide the tools, & ensure affordability that help farmers & families thrive. 🚜
Proud to co-lead H.R. 1107, introduced by Rep. Womack (R-AR), that the U.S. House passed yesterday. Our bipartisan effort ensures veterans have access, in-person & virtually, to quality care. This bill helps provide seamless and efficient care for those who have served our country.
Today is National Voter Registration Day! Your voice is a cornerstone of our democracy. Registering to vote is the first step to making it heard.

Today’s terrorist threats targeting Clark Atlanta University, Alabama State U., Virginia State U., Hampton U. & other campuses must be investigated by federal authorities. Religious, race/ethnicity, or sex-based violence is despicable, hateful extremism & an assault on American ideals.
And as competitors like China invest strongly in STEM, this bill guts science education & research which drive innovation, create new economic opportunities, and are the foundation military strength and national security.
