US Senator for Oklahoma | Republican Conference Vice Chair
We are busy this week confirming President Trump's nominations, and taking up the first of the appropriation bills, which would fund military construction and Veterans Affairs. Watch to see what else is moving this Monday!
Rheanna is a mom, homeowner, and server in Oklahoma. She says that the no tax on tips provision in the One Big Beautiful Bill is coming at a great time – helping her keep more of her hard-earned income for her mortgage, childcare, and rising costs.
Rescissions package is headed to your desk, @POTUS. @SenateGOP is keeping our promise to cut waste, fraud, and abuse.


Cindy and I are heartbroken by the death of Hosam Saraya. Hosam was an Oklahoman and member of the Druze community who was tragically executed alongside other members of his family in Syria. We are praying for his family, friends, and the entire community as they grieve this…
We had a great night with @POTUS celebrating the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill 🇺🇸


Ireland’s bill to ban imports from Judea and Samaria doesn’t just target our ally Israel, it puts American companies in legal jeopardy and could force them to violate US law. This is deeply misguided, and I urge Ireland to reconsider.
Cindy and I had the pleasure of giving a Capitol Tour to Eli Willits, the No.1 MLB draft pick, and his family. Eli is a remarkable young man from Oklahoma who is grounded in his faith, and we are excited that he is going to play ball here in DC. Eli, we can’t wait to watch you…




This officer was in Oklahoma City. Attacks on law enforcement will not be tolerated.
Attacks on our officers will NOT be tolerated. While ICE @ERODallas officers were detaining Honduran illegal alien Jose Melgar-Rivas, Melgar accelerated his van and dragged an officer nearly a block down the road in an attempt to escape. This resulted in multiple injuries to…
WATCH my Vice Chair POV with @SenatorWicker. We talk all things National Defense Authorization Act and how it supports our service members, strengthens our military, and reforms the way the Pentagon does business to ensure every dollar is spent smarter than ever before.
When it comes to illegal immigration, the Left has become consumed with protecting people who have violated the law. To be clear—law enforcement and the Trump administration will not be intimidated.
Great talking with @SenatorLankford about how the Big Beautiful Bill will deliver for Americans. Our bill will grow our economy, let Americans keep more of their hard-earned money and set the country on a more fiscally sustainable path. It is a massive win for Idahoans,…
In this Vice Chair POV, @MikeCrapo and I talk about all the Big Beautiful Wins in the One Big Beautiful Bill! As Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Sen. Crapo worked for months to shape the bill.

“Having a little more today means everything.” Proud Oklahoman Marilyn shares how new deductions for seniors included in the One Big Beautiful Bill will help her keep more of what she’s earned. This will make life easier for many senior adults who live on a fixed income.
No tax on overtime is a game changer for police officers nationwide. We spoke with Chief of Police Todd Gibson about how the One Big Beautiful Bill will directly benefit his officers and their families.
No question – one of the most pro-growth parts of the One Big Beautiful Bill is making full-expensing permanent. Read more about that here ⬇️ washingtonexaminer.com/policy/finance…
This week, the Senate is holding another vote-a-rama - this time to approve targeted spending cuts the White House has formally requested. These are called “rescissions,” and they’re basically a way to cancel funds that were previously approved but haven’t been spent yet. If we…
.@SenateGOP has taken 383 roll call votes – more than any Congress at this point in the last 35 years – even as Democrats try to slow us down. We’re doing the work to make sure the president’s team is in place and the American people’s agenda can move forward.
One week anniversary of the One Big Beautiful Bill being signed into law!
When it comes to copper, aluminum, and steel, we can’t keep relying on other countries and letting them take advantage of us. We need to be able to manufacture those things here in the US, and that is what President Trump is working to accomplish.
Psalm 34:18 says, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” We continue to pray for the families and all those affected by the flooding in central Texas, and that they are able to find comfort in the Lord during this time.
