Senator Lindsey Graham was a statesman and patriot. He will surely be missed here in Congress. My prayers are with his family and loved ones in this difficult time.

Hopefully the FBI finds no foul play. My thoughts are with everyone affected, and I’m praying for their safety and well‑being. Losing your home can be one of the most devastating experiences anyone can face.
Antisemitism has no place in Indiana or anywhere in America. Violence and discrimination are not Hoosier values, and will not be tolerated.

The FBI is assisting with investigating a fire that destroyed a historic building in Zionsville this morning. Officials say the home was displaying an Israeli and an American flag, which has prompted the investigation. The fire happened just before 2 a.m. on Main Street. Early estimates put the damage at more than $150,000. “This is deeply troubling and profoundly disappointing” said Mayor John Stehr, “Zionsville is a welcoming community built on respect, and acts of hatred or intimidation are against the values we share.” Investigators have not determined what started the fire.

Article I, Section 5 of the Constitution, prohibits one chamber of Congress to adjourn for more than three days without the consent of the other. To meet this constitutional requirement we hold pro forma sessions.
Today, I had the honor of standing in the Speaker's Chair, serving as Speaker Pro Tempore.

America needs secure and diverse energy production to meet growing demand.
Nuclear power can help shore-up our grid and power our communities 24/7.
English
Nuclear energy is a secure and reliable source of power. Currently, the U.S. has 96 commercial nuclear reactors producing 20% of our nation's energy. ⚛️⚡️
With energy needs growing by the day, nuclear should be a massive part of the solution.
Let’s dive into how a nuclear reactor works!

"From George Washington’s Continental Army to the creation of the U.S. Space Force, every generation has had brave servicemembers answer the call to serve, not because it is easy, but because America is worth defending."
Reflections on America's 250th birthday this July 4th from former @BipartisanVets Vice Chair, Army veteran, and one of the last three Vietnam veterans in Congress @RepJimBaird.

Two hundred and fifty years ago, our Founding Fathers declared independence and founded a nation where every person is endowed with the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. For two and a half centuries, generations of Americans have worked, sacrificed, and persevered to leave our country stronger than they found it.
Together, we have continued the work of building a nation defined by freedom and opportunity. As we celebrate 250 years of our nation's founding, I am proud to be an American.
