In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I also appreciate the President highlighting America's upcoming 250th anniversary. This is something every American can take pride in, regardless of party. It is a chance to come together, reflect on how far we have come, and recommit ourselves to ensuring the next chapter of our history is even stronger and more prosperous.”
“But the job is far from finished. I look forward to working with President Trump and my colleagues in Congress to build on this momentum and fight for policies that expand access to affordable housing and investment opportunities, support our small businesses, and deliver bigger paychecks and lower prices for Arkansas families.”
“President Trump inherited a sputtering economy weighed down by years of reckless spending, excessive regulation, and policies that made life more expensive for hardworking Arkansans. Tonight, he made clear that we are turning the corner, with Republican leadership delivering commonsense solutions to get our economy back on track and restore the American Dream for families across our country.”
“Artificial intelligence is a good next step in technology,”
“I don't support across-the-board tariffs. They can have a price level increase at one moment,”
“Our 21st Century Housing Act provides more capital and more ability for banks to make home loans and lowers the cost and provides incentives to lower the cost of constructing houses.”

“I know what it's like to save and be waiting for that low interest rate and waiting for that house,”
“The cost of living is plaguing a lot of families from top to bottom. The prices at the grocery store, the prices at the pump, prices of housing.”
“We're doing our part to undo four years of bad policy,”
