Today, I mourn the passing of Rep. Doug LaMalfa of California.
He was a hardworking member of Congress & will be greatly missed. I enjoyed our camaraderie as co-chairs of the Congressional Automotive Performance & Motorsports Caucus.

#HappyNewYear! Wishing you and your family a prosperous and bright 2026!
I also introduced two bills to help military families, the Military Housing Performance Insight Act (September) as well as the Stabilizing Tours to Advance Readiness Act (November). You can read about the bills on my website:

Earlier this month, I testified to the U.S. House Veterans’ Affairs Committee about my bill, the Disabled Veterans Tax Termination Act.

One of the events the caucus organizes each year is the Military Family Summit. This August, we hosted it at the National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center in Columbus, GA. You can watch the presentations and panels here:

Making sure that Congress does its best for America’s military families will continue to be a top priority of mine in the new year!
This year, I was honored to once again co-chair the bipartisan Congressional Military Family Caucus, which I co-founded with former Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington and now co-chair with Rep. Jen Kiggans of Virginia.
As #Kwanzaa begins we are reminded of its principles: strength of family, community, and shared values that guide us forward. Happy Kwanzaa to all that celebrate this holiday season!
#MerryChristmas to all and may this season be one of joy, blessings, and hope!
As we head into 2026, I will steadfastly work in Congress to ensure these programs remain strong, transparent, and focused on real conservation outcomes that serve Georgia’s farmers and families.
Middle and Southwest Georgia farmers have been a driving force for conservation efforts, benefiting from federal resources under Democratic and Republican administrations to continue to produce the highest quality, most abundant and affordable food and fiber.
This month, USDA announced its Regenerative Agriculture Pilot. Interested producers should submit applications to their local NRCS office by January 15, 2026.
This program builds on the EQIP and CSP programs that our farmers have relied on for decades for soil health and reducing input costs.

Today, the U.S. Space Force celebrates its 6th birthday! 🎉 The newest branch of our military ensures America's national security in space, and it protects communications & GPS, on which we rely every day. It was an honor to welcome these Guardians this week & thank them for their service.
Yesterday, I joined my colleagues on the House steps to urge him to immediately bring this ACA tax credit extension bill to a vote.

Fortunately, several Republican House Members have joined Democrats on a discharge petition to force a vote on a bill to extend ACA tax credits. The House Speaker must call a vote but has yet to do so.
This week, I voted against a bill pushed by GOP leadership that not only failed to extend ACA tax credits, but also threatened to leave patients with less protection, destabilize the insurance market, and put Americans on the hook for big medical bills not covered by insurance.
... to ensure that the $1 billion in relief reserved for specialty crops are quickly and fairly distributed through a clear process that reflects the unique nature of specialty crop production.
