I won't let government be weaponized to abuse our Constitutional rights. The Protecting Privacy in Purchases Act that I helped lead through the House prevents the data collection of firearms purchases. This doesn't prevent police from investigating criminal activity but will protect lawful gun owners from being surveilled by their government.

🔥 In support of HR 1181, the NRA-backed bill to prohibit credit card companies from tracking constitutionally protected purchases like firearms and ammunition, @RepAndyBarr NAILS IT: “At its core, this bill is about protecting privacy and preventing government surveillance on citizens simply for exercising their constitutionally-enshrined Second Amendment rights. ... The lawful purchase of a firearm protected by the Second Amendment IS NOT, in and of itself, suspicious activity. Nor should it be surveilled by the government.”

🚨BREAKING: The House just passed my legislation with @RepRileyMoore and @RepAndyBarr to stop banks and credit card companies from tracking law-abiding Americans who shop at gun stores. Americans should never have their purchases monitored just because they are exercising their Second Amendment rights.

Americans need a Federal Reserve focused on fighting inflation and maintaining price stability—not pushing climate activist policies. Today, Chairman Warsh committed to keeping the Fed in its lane, ending NGFS and climate supervision that threaten Kentucky’s energy industry and raise costs for consumers.

Chairman Kevin Warsh is an excellent choice to lead the Fed. He’s fully focused on the Fed’s dual mandate of full domestic employment and price stability. Full q&a at today’s @FinancialCmte hearing ⬇️

Turning the tide on the worst inflation crisis in a generation. We’ve replaced Bidenomics with the largest tax cut in American history and a serious effort to slash big government regulations in DC. I’ll keep fighting to lower costs for Kentucky. justthenews.com/nation/economy…

Reforms I fought for in the House are helping the VA deliver results for veterans. MORE claims processed last year than any year on record. LOWEST backlog since 2020. I will never stop fighting for our veterans until every single one gets the benefits they earned in service. news.va.gov/press-room/va-…

🚨 LAUNCHING TODAY 🚨 The American Dream starts at birth. Every eligible baby born between January 1, 2025 and January 1, 2029 gets a $1,000 Trump Account—fully funded by the Working Families Tax Cut. We’re creating a generation of savers, investors, and owners—not dependence.

.@POTUS: "If parents have not done so already—and they are doing so in record numbers—they should go right away to TrumpAccounts.gov and sign their child up for a free investment savings account... parents, loved ones, churches, and generous companies and individuals will be able to contribute funds to these accounts to grow throughout the child's life."

WATCH: @RepAndyBarr on bank state charters and responsible innovation: “As Chairman of the Financial Institution Subcommittee, who's also been working on this issue with my friend from Wisconsin, one of our core responsibilities is overseeing our nation's banking system and ensuring that the regulatory framework keeps pace with innovation. For more than 150 years, our dual banking system has allowed states to serve as laboratories for innovation, testing new ideas while maintaining prudential oversight.” 📺⬇️

Community banks are the backbone of KY’s economy — funding first homes, small businesses, and family farms. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act makes the most significant reforms to community banking in a decade. More access, more opportunity, more American Dreams being realized.
Financial Services GOP@FinancialCmte

WATCH: @RepAndyBarr speaks in support of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act: “Community banks are the financial infrastructure of housing and rural America. When they thrive, small towns thrive. When they're regulated out of existence, capital dries up and the opportunity for home ownership disappears. This legislation changes that. By streamlining de novo formation, increasing supervisory transparency, strengthening access to deposits, community banks can better serve their communities and remain a key contributor to the home loan market, expanding opportunities, not just for Kentuckians, but for Americans to become homeowners.” 📺⬇️

Great to see KY Reps @RepBratcher and Wade Williams in DC today. Both are veterans and great champions of the military, and both are doing an outstanding job representing Hardin and Hopkins Counties, respectively, in Frankfort.

Sent off an outstanding group of 12 students from Kentucky’s Sixth District to the U.S. Service Academies. These young patriots will join the ranks of the world’s greatest military as officers—and lead our military into the future. We couldn’t be more proud of their dedication, discipline, and commitment to our country.

Congratulations to the students, teachers, and parents from Flemingsburg Elementary School for their outstanding achievement—being the one of the only elementary schools that made it to the finals at the Presidential AI Challenge in the nation! They showed the country what Kentucky innovation looks like. The future is bright in the Commonwealth.

Great ceremony on Sunday to commemorate the Blessing of the Bikes. Praying for a season of beautiful, safe riding throughout the Commonwealth for all our bikers. Grateful to Pastor Lowell Rice for dedicating this year’s event in honor of Tatum Dale, who loved attending each year.

Eighty-two years ago, heroic Americans stormed the beaches of Normandy. They saved America, they saved Europe, and they changed the world. We should forever be inspired by their patriotism and bravery. God bless our WWII veterans and our American military!

Nearly $1 BILLION is being invested in Clean, Beautiful Coal nationwide—including $150 MILLION right here in the Commonwealth. Congratulations to @EastKYPowerCoop, @KentuckyPower, and @DukeEnergy Kentucky, both recipients. Thank you, President Trump, for delivering for our coal communities in Kentucky and powering our nation with reliable energy.
