This week, after our coalition refused to compromise on election integrity, Speaker Johnson agreed to attach the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act to every appropriations bill and must-pass bill, including the NDAA, that passes the House and moves to the Senate. With this agreement in place, the Senate will be forced to pass voter ID and proof of citizenship, and if they don’t, the blame will fall squarely on the shoulders of no one other than Senate Majority Leader John Thune.

On Monday, we marked two years since the assassination attempt against President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, where God spared his life by a fraction of an inch. On that day, Corey Comperatore was killed while shielding his family, and his courage remains a lasting reminder of the cost of political violence.

As we remember Butler, we honor Corey’s life, pray for his family, and carry forward the resolve to protect the country he loved. America is worth fighting for, and his sacrifice will never be forgotten.

This week, I was glad to have an early birthday celebration for my friend and colleague, U.S. Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), ahead of the August recess. His commitment to transparency has made him a trusted partner in Congress, and I am grateful for his friendship and continued leadership.
