Fantastic tour of @statesborofire's new Station 3, which officially opened last month. After nearly two decades of planning, it is great to see Station 3 officially open and providing expanded fire protection across Statesboro. God bless our firefighters in GA-12!

Thank you, @RepRickAllen, for championing #AmericanManufacturing.
As Rep. Allen testified before the International Trade Commission, "When competition is fair, American companies can innovate, invest, grow."

The socialist agenda is well-documented: Abolish the border, legalize mass migration, grant amnesty regardless of status, abolish prisons, defund the police, pack the U.S. Supreme Court.
@HouseGOP remains committed to defeating this threat and preserving the American way of life for our kids, grandkids, and future generations.

Every two years, I am blown away by the young leaders from across the 12th District who choose to participate in our Youth Leadership Summit.

Happy Columbus Day!
Today, we celebrate the spirit of exploration, honor the contributions of Italian Americans, and recognize the courage to venture into the unknown.
Several counties in the 12th District are expected to feel the impacts of Hurricane Isaias throughout the weekend, including scattered, widespread rain, flooding, and potential wind gusts up to 40 mph.
Stay weather aware, stay safe, and stay informed through local news and weather updates.
Continue to monitor weather and follow preparedness tips from @GeorgiaEMAHS and your local weather station. Make sure you’re using resources like your phone to stay informed on potential alerts.

Three years ago today, Hamas terrorists murdered approximately 1,200 innocent people on one of the deadliest days for the Jewish people in history. We will NEVER forget. America must always stand with Israel and against radical Islamist terror. 🇺🇸🇮🇱
Great to welcome @SBA_Kelly back to the 12th District yesterday! ShaloTek in Statesboro is a great example of the innovative manufacturers and job creators we have here in rural Georgia.
As one of only seven winners of the first-ever Critical Suppliers Prize Competition hosted by @SBAgov, ShaloTek has positioned itself well for future growth, expansion, and job creation.
ShaloTek is one of the winners of SBA’s Critical Suppliers Prize Competition. Today, in Statesboro, I saw firsthand the job creation power - and the talent, expertise and commitment - of small manufacturers in rural communities.
The Trump SBA is proud to back the builders within our critical supply chains across technology, aerospace and defense. 🇺🇸
Gone are the days of outsourcing our energy needs. @POTUS and @HouseGOP have reclaimed American energy dominance.
Energy security = national security
Congratulations @RepRickAllen for scoring a 100% on the American Energy Scorecard! Thank you for being a champion for American energy! americanenergyalliance.org/2…
American companies like Club Car and E-Z-GO, both located in GA-12, should be able to outcompete based on the quality, innovation and value of what they produce — not against foreign governments willing to subsidize competitors and distort prices.
Ahead of President Xi's visit to the @WhiteHouse, read my op-ed in @FoxNewsOpinion about what the golf cart industry can teach us about China’s threat to American jobs: foxnews.com/opinion/golf-car…
Wishing all who observe this sacred day a meaningful Yom Kippur filled with peace, hope, and reflection.
May your fast bring renewed strength and purpose in the year ahead.
☑️ Headed to the President's Desk: The Retire through Ownership Act
I was proud to lead this bipartisan, bicameral legislation that will help eliminate the regulatory ambiguity and unnecessary risks ESOPs often face.
This commonsense bill will ensure more Americans can enjoy a secure retirement!

Thanks Rep. Allen for the kind words about The @ESOPAssociation, it was a pleasure working with leaders across the aisle on this landmark ESOP legislation.
The funding for the long-awaited veterans cemetery in Augusta has now been officially awarded to the State of Georgia!
To our veterans and their families in the CSRA and surrounding communities: the tireless work that brought us to this point is for you.
