Congratulations to Lance Schroyer on his nomination as ICE Director by President @realDonaldTrump. His strong law enforcement background will support ICE's mission to enforce our immigration laws and secure our borders.

Black bodies lay in rivers and in fields all across this country because they dared to speak out for representation and the right to vote. This is an absolute power grab.

I just handed Representative Lamberth the Confederate flag saying "We will not go back," because you are trying to bring us back to the Confederacy.

Tennessee is a conservative state, and I submit its congressional delegation should reflect that. By passing this map, Tennessee is doing its part to advance common-sense leadership in Washington.

Gov. Bill Lee signed the repeal of a 50-year-old law barring mid-decade redistricting less than one hour after the bill cleared the Republican supermajority in the statehouse, clearing the path for the new congressional map to take effect.

The Supreme Court has opined that redistricting, like the judicial system, should be color-blind. The decision indicated states can redistrict based off partisan politics. Today, Tennessee joins other red and blue states in redrawing their congressional maps.

“

It's a blatant, corrupt power grab that would destroy the Black community's and our entire city's voice.

“

We have to defend our right to representation and our voices in Congress, in the state House and in elected office.

“

We owe it to Tennesseans to ensure our congressional districts accurately reflect the will of Tennessee voters.

We cannot accept a Homeland Security Secretary who lets federal agents shoot an unarmed citizen

The new ballroom is a practical investment in America's most important home. For years, the White House has struggled to accommodate large-scale events, whether for state visits, national ceremonies or even bipartisan gatherings that bring leaders together.
