Thrilled to see the House pass the Retirement Fairness for Charities and Educational Institutions Act, legislation I’m proud to lead in the Senate. I’m also pleased to see the White House support this commonsense bill. I urge the Senate to take up and pass this legislation to strengthen 403(b) plans and maximize savings to ensure our nurses, ministers, teachers, and charitable workers have the opportunity for retirement security.

One of the greatest privileges of serving Alabama in the U.S. Senate is getting to meet and thank the incredible veterans who have served our nation. Their courage, sacrifice, and commitment to our country inspire me every day. I’ll always fight to ensure our veterans receive the care, benefits, and support they’ve earned.

Our veterans have sacrificed so much for our nation, and we have a responsibility to ensure they receive the support they’ve earned. This Veterans Day, I’m proud that my bipartisan Housing Unhoused Disabled Veterans Act became law through the ROAD to Housing Act, ensuring veterans’ disability benefits won’t prevent them from accessing critical housing assistance. britt.senate.gov/news/press-…

Happy Veterans Day! Today and every day, we are grateful for the generations of Americans who have served our nation and helped preserve the freedoms we hold dear. May we never take their service or sacrifice for granted. God bless our veterans!

Happy 251st Birthday to the United States Marine Corps! For more than two and a half centuries, Marines have answered the call to serve our nation with courage, honor, and an unwavering commitment to defending our freedoms. Thank you to every Marine, past and present, for your service and sacrifice. Semper Fi!

It’s always special to be back home in Enterprise! I appreciated the opportunity to sit down with Southeast Gas CEO Greg Henderson for a conversation about the future of the Wiregrass, from strengthening Fort Rucker’s mission to investing in infrastructure and creating new opportunities for our communities.

I’m thrilled that Fort Rucker will welcome @FLOTUS and @SLOTUS this week. Growing up just outside the gates of @FortRucker_, I’ve seen firsthand just how special Alabama’s exceptional military installations are to our state and nation. The outstanding men and women in uniform and their families deserve the utmost respect and recognition for their service to our nation.
First Lady Melania Trump, along with Second Lady Usha Vance, will be traveling to Fort Rucker as part of a special visit later this week. Go to the link in our bio to read more.

Excited to see Honda continuing to grow right here in Alabama! Honda’s Lincoln plant has thrived for almost three decades. With plans to expand production and build a new hybrid engine, Honda is creating new opportunities for hardworking Alabamians and strengthening Alabama’s automotive industry long into the future.
Honda is investing in our next 50 years in America. Today, we announced plans to establish a new $3 billion auto plant in Ohio, creating more than 2,000 jobs and expanding our U.S. auto production capacity to almost 1.3 million vehicles a year using domestic and globally made parts. The facility is part of a broader investment in Honda manufacturing operations in Ohio, Alabama and Georgia that will expand and strengthen an integrated U.S. production network to boost the production of hybrid-electric vehicles, engines, and hybrid systems. This investment will establish the foundation for our next generation of manufacturing and support new Honda and Acura models being developed right here in the U.S.

I fought to make rural healthcare a priority in the Working Families @TaxCuts Act. With today’s announcement, Alabama has now received $402 million this Congress. I’ll continue working tirelessly to strengthen rural healthcare and help families access quality medical services closer to home. cms.gov/newsroom/press-relea…

Thank you, @SusieWiles47, for your tremendous service to our country. From being the first woman to serve as Chief of Staff in our country’s history to bravely battling breast cancer, Susie has been an inspiration to millions across the country. Congratulations, @StephenM, on your new role. I look forward to continue working together to deliver results for the American people.

Feral swine cause serious damage to Alabama farms, agricultural lands, and natural resources. Thanks to funding provided by the Working Families @TaxCuts Act, @USDA is investing in four new projects across Alabama to help control feral swine populations, protect more than 100,000 acres, and support our hardworking producers and landowners. nrcs.usda.gov/conservation-b…

Great news for Alabama! 141 communities across our state, including 65 in rural areas, have been designated as Qualified Opportunity Zones! Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts, this program is now permanent, helping attract private investment, create good-paying jobs, and bring new economic opportunities to communities across Alabama. home.treasury.gov/news/press…

Few Alabama traditions compare to the Magic City Classic, and the 85th matchup didn't disappoint. Congrats to Alabama A&M on a hard-fought win.

My family and I continue to pray for the individual whose life was taken, those who were injured, and all who were impacted by the senseless violence following yesterday’s Magic City Classic. Thank you to our tremendous law enforcement officers who are working tirelessly in the aftermath of this tragedy.

Early detection saves lives, and women deserve access to the care they need. During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I’m glad to see @HHSGov taking steps to strengthen breast cancer screening, expand education, and improve timely follow-up care. This goes hand in hand with my bipartisan ABCD Act, which would eliminate out-of-pocket costs for necessary follow-up diagnostic tests, helping more women receive a timely diagnosis and access the treatment they need. hhs.gov/press-room/hhs-stren…

Such a special evening reconnecting with fellow SGA alumni at the University of Alabama last week! It was especially meaningful to celebrate Dr. Kathleen Cramer’s amazing legacy by naming the SGA Lobby in her honor. Dr. Cramer was an incredible mentor to me and countless others at UA. For generations of students at the Capstone, she was the steady hand and driving force who always believed that more was possible and could be achieved. This event was a wonderful way to honor her legacy and remember what it means to come back and give back.
