More than 31,500 veteran owned small businesses make Kentucky’s economy strong. I’m proud to join my colleagues in the Senate as a cosponsor of @SenJoniErnst’s National Veteran Small Business Week Resolution.

Congratulations to U.S. Senator-elect Andy Barr! Having worked alongside Andy in Congress, I know firsthand his dedication to Kentucky and his ability to deliver for our Commonwealth. I'm proud of the way that Andy worked to earn support across the Commonwealth. The confidence Kentuckians have placed in their next Senator is well deserved. I'm deeply grateful to Kentuckians for the privilege of serving them in the Senate, and I look forward to working with Andy to ensure a seamless transition so Kentucky can continue punching above its weight.
As a lifelong college sports fan, I’m proud to join our Kentucky universities in supporting the Protect College Sports Act. I care deeply about the traditions, rivalries, and communities that make college athletics so special. A national framework for NIL can bring much-needed clarity, consistency, and stability to the evolving landscape of college sports and provide greater certainty for student-athletes.

Kentucky mourns the loss of Kentucky State Police Trooper Hayden Phillips, who was killed in the line of duty.
Trooper Phillips gave his life protecting the people of Kentucky. We are grateful for his courage and service, and we will remember his sacrifice. May God comfort his loved ones as well as all who served alongside him.

I want to commend Chairman Boozman for his work on the Farm Bill. As a member of the Agriculture Committee since my first day in the United States Senate, I was proud to vote yes on the Farm Bill on behalf of the hardworking farm families across Kentucky. America’s farmers are the cornerstone of our nation and the backbone of Kentucky’s economy and I wish our Democrat colleagues would have joined Republicans supporting the many important provisions in this Farm Bill. My hope is the bill receives robust bipartisan support on the Senate floor and demonstrates our commitment to our Nation’s farmers and rural communities. @SenateAgGOP
