Michael McCaul

As chairman of @HomelandGOP's Special Events Task Force, I will continue doing everything in my power to ensure the World Cup games are fun and safe for everyone involved. Our next order of business must be funding CBP and ICE — including ICE's crucial Homeland Security Investigations office, which leads essential anti-human trafficking efforts at large-scale sporting events.

I strongly applaud the passage of today’s DHS funding bill, which is critical for closing security gaps ahead of our upcoming FIFA World Cup games. Despite Democrats' attempts to play political games with ICE and CBP, I am also glad this bill funded CBP's National Targeting Center, which works to identify and stop travelers and cargo that pose a threat to our nation. With only 42 days left until kickoff, DHS must be operating at peak capacity.

After sitting back-to-back with @SandraSmithFox at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, I joined her on @AmericaRpts to discuss the aftermath of the shooting and my thoughts on the venue's security.

As chairman of @HomelandGOP's Special Events Task Force, I led a letter to Secretary Hegseth, Acting AG Blanche, & Secretary Mullin, urging the admin to empower the National Guard to address potential drone-related threats & ensure a unified federal security posture at the games. mccaul.house.gov/media-center/p…

With only 44 days until the first @FIFAWorldCup game, we must do everything in our power to secure the airspace over our 11 host cities. While the Safer Skies Act was a vital step forward, the tournament’s scale requires us to build upon that foundation immediately. reuters.com/world/us/congr…

“The big risk to The World Cup and America 250 are adversarial drones and counter drone technology.” Michael McCaul warns of evolving drone threats as officials ramp up security ahead of a critical summer.

Tune in now 🚨 I’m joining @AmericaRpts live on Fox News to discuss the harrowing shooting at the White House Correspondents’ dinner and what lessons can be learned about security at major events.

GOP Rep. McCaul after shooting at White House Correspondents' Dinner: "I think the Secret Service needs to reconsider having both the president and vice president together at something like that."

Last night's shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner was another reminder that we must work together to lower the temperature and end political violence. I joined @BloombergTV to share my thoughts and describe the scene after shots rang out.

I’m live on @CNN now with Dana Bash to discuss last night’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Tune in 📺

The Members of Congress who attended the White House Correspondents’ Dinner are safe and secure. We are assisting our federal and local partners with anything they need.

I was at the White House Correspondents' Dinner this evening when shots were fired. Thanks to the swift response of Secret Service and @Capitolpolice, who escorted me from the premises, my congressional colleagues and I are safe. I’m incredibly grateful for their quick actions to protect all in attendance — including President Trump.

Tune in to Fox News! I’m live on set with @aishahhasnie to discuss the latest on U.S. negotiations with Iran and more.

“I want to believe that this can work. But as Reagan said, trust but verify.” @RepMcCaul shares his perspective on Iran negotiations. This Week on Capitol Hill

Tune in now🚨 I’m joining @BloombergTV LIVE on set to discuss the latest on negotiations with Iran and much more.

Today, I stood in front of 20,000 teddy bears on the national mall — each one representing an abducted Ukrainian child — to condemn Putin's brutality and remind the world of these children's plight. Many of them are tortured, forced to memorize propaganda, and/or sent to the front lines to fight against their own country. This is evil in its purest form. Now is the time for moral clarity, and history will judge us by how we respond.

While US companies face strict export controls on sensitive tech and make real financial sacrifices, some of our closest allies are backfilling that market in China thanks to a loophole the Biden admin created. @RepBaumgartner's MATCH Act mandates a united front to stop the CCP.

To win the global tech race, the U.S. needs a transparent, collaborative, and highly effective export control system. I introduced a good-governance bill to do just that. Watch my remarks at today's @HouseForeignGOP markup on my BIS License Administration Enhancement Act ⬇️

We are still celebrating our @AggieVolleyball team, who won their first-ever national championship in 2025! Ahead of their well-deserved visit to the White House today, I had the honor of congratulating these young women on their victory. They have made Aggieland proud!

It was an honor to speak at @TAMU's inaugural Civil Discourse Symposium, which also featured VP @Mike_Pence. @RepCuellar and I discussed how we work across the aisle to get good things done for the American people. As I always say, when we disagree, we can do so with civility. Proud of the Aggies for leading the charge to revive civil discourse across our nation!
