Today, we honor the 1.34 million+ Americans in uniform. North Carolina is proud to be home to one of the largest military communities in the nation, from Fort Bragg to Camp Lejeune, to Seymour Johnson and beyond. To all members of our Armed Forces—thank you for your service.
President Trump’s strategy has restored deterrence and Iran is negotiating from weakness while the U.S. holds a commanding position. A country that has chanted "Death to America" for 47 years must never be allowed to possess a nuclear weapon.
Great to join the Economic Development Summit with North Carolinians to discuss why our state is the best place to do business. NC is building an AI-ready workforce, creating more jobs, & investing in national defense. Together, we can drive innovation & ensure a strong future.
For over 47 years, Iran has attacked & killed Americans & our allies. Where past presidents kicked the can down the road, @POTUS is doing what they refused to do. We are finally on a path towards dismantling their ballistic missile threat & nuclear enrichment program—for good.
The Army's proposal to procure 2,400 NC-made Infantry Squad Vehicles (ISVs) is the right step to modernize Army mobility & increase soldiers' survivability. Built with 90% commercial parts, ISVs save taxpayer dollars while delivering a proven solution for our warfighters.
National Police Week is a meaningful time to recognize the brave men and women in blue who serve and protect our communities across North Carolina and the nation.
Thank you for your unwavering dedication and sacrifice.
From the F-35 to next-gen drones, @LockheedMartin delivers cutting-edge capabilities to our warfighters & bolsters the American arsenal. Proud to sign an F-35 for @mcas_cherry_point to support our Marine pilots in North Carolina. Strong industry-government partnerships are needed to accelerate U.S. airpower.
The future of American military dominance relies on preserving our air superiority & keeping our top pilots. The RETAIN Act & the Fighter Aircrew Career Flexibility Act address this need promptly by providing incentives for our pilots to stay in service.
Appreciated meeting with Ambassador Ilyassov to discuss Kazakhstan’s decision to join the Abraham Accords—a meaningful step toward peace and expanded economic partnerships. We also had a productive conversation on strengthening trade ties and expanding critical minerals partnerships.
For nearly a decade, the Special Operations budget has remained virtually flat. Even as our most elite units have answered the call at an increasing rate. Our nation’s best deserve more support.
For too long, U.S. air dominance has been taken for granted—but it isn’t an American birthright. Given China’s advances, it is time for a renewed bipartisan focus on the skies.
For years, Iran has attacked and killed Americans and our allies. Our country and the world are undoubtedly safer now because @POTUS is crippling the regime’s nuclear ambitions and their ability to wage war.
