Dear Friend,
This week in Washington, I joined President Trump in celebrating the victory of the Great American Comeback during his State of the Union address. President Trump is keeping his promise to rebuild America, and the results speak for themselves. According to the January 2020 Jobs Report, over 225,000 new jobs were added to the U.S. economy, and unemployment remains at a 50-year low. I will continue to stand behind the President while he grows our economy, defends our borders, protects our Nation from terrorist threats, and rebuilds our military.
