www.nytimes.com/2025/12/04/u... HOW LONG TIL TRUMP ISSUES A PARDON?
Memphis households already spend more of their income on power bills than almost anywhere in the country.
My Clean Cloud Act would keep data centers and crypto miners from pushing those bills even higher.

Grifters in the first term but in the second term simply “for sale”
George Will no less

DNC chair: “Aftyn Behn’s overperformance in this Trump +22 district is historic and a flashing warning sign for Republicans heading into the midterms.”
Today I reintroduced the bipartisan TVA IRP Act to strengthen how TVA plans for the Valley’s future energy needs. It expands public participation, increases transparency, and brings independent expertise into the IRP — helping ensure reliable, lowest-cost power for families in Memphis & TN-9.
Featured in the print edition of the NYTIMES TODAY, PAIGE C 10.
An iconic American city!

Deeply saddened by the murder of US Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, a 20-year-old member of the WV National Guard serving in DC on a mission authorized by President Trump. No Guardsman should be put in danger on a deployment like this—I asked the President to lower flags to half-staff in her honor.
Saddened at her death. She served her state and nation and wanted to serve country as an agent. So sad.
As she was serving her country through President Trump’s call up of the National Guard and shot so close to the White House. I hope the president will lower the flags to half staff in her memory
Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.
She didn't want to deploy to D.C.
"She hated it. She cried about it."
But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.
May she rest in peace.

Young ones for Lloyd
Love seeing Memphis featured in the New York Times “36 Hours” guide. Great food, great music, great people — it’s all here.
Read what the Times had to say, or better yet come visit and see for yourself why we think Memphis is great!
Best to you and yours.
It was an honor to serve with you.
Keep speaking truth.

Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.
📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.
Prosecute her and everyone involved.
Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃
I’m grateful every day for the opportunity to represent Memphis and Tennessee’s Ninth District in Congress. To every family who calls Memphis home, wishing you and your loved ones a safe, joyful, and restful holiday.
Go Tigers Go!

“Maybe” NOT.
This past year I was named by a group of UVA & Vanderbilt political scientists in a scientific study as the 5th most effective Democratic congressman. I also was responsible for Tennessee receiving $394 million (largest infrastructure grant in Tn.history) for new Miss. River bridge.
Wasn’t told that.
I’m all in for Aftyn
No. But I am most effective and productive for my district and they decide as they have 8 times since I turned your too old to serve age of 60.
