Today, we fully reopened the Tyrone Post Office!
Before I was sworn into Congress, I promised to reopen the Tyrone Post Office, which had previously suffered extensive structural damage due to a fire. As of today, the Tyrone Post Office is fully open for business.
During a Congressional oversight hearing, I asked the Postmaster General to accelerate the Post Office’s reconstruction, which had been delayed for years. He and his team swiftly reacted, and worked closely with my team to achieve this goal.
Thank you to Tyrone Mayor Eric Dial and the Tyrone Town Council for your partnership and forceful advocacy, and thank you to Postmaster General David Steiner, and Kayla Dufrene, Brandy Jackson, and Sharon Alston of the Postal Service for your leadership on this important project.

Tonight, I was honored to partner with the Columbus Clingstones and host a Service Academy Night at the ballpark for six of the outstanding students I appointed to our country’s military service academies. Sadly, the game was eventually rained out, but the fans were uplifted, as each appointee walked on the field with their families to be individually recognized on the jumbotron for their patriotism.
As we reflect this week on the costly sacrifices made to defend our freedom, we are inspired by these young men and women preparing to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point, the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, and the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.
Congratulations to Addison, Colson, Mahika, Matthew, Steven, and Travonte!

This morning, I was honored to join Coweta County veterans, families, and community leaders at Newnan’s Memorial Day Ceremony.
Newnan is a community from which heroes are born. Two of Georgia’s 27 Medal of Honor recipients were from Newnan, and dozens more have earned a Purple Heart. At today’s ceremony, we honored one of those recipients, Private First Class James Alfred “Alf” Smith, a Newnan native, who was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart after sacrificing his life in service to our country during World War I.
May the stories of these heroes continue to inspire us and the next generation of guardians of our freedom.

Today, we honor the lives of the brave warriors who died in service to our country’s Armed Forces.
May their sacrifices and the heartbreak felt by their families remind us of the cost of freedom and the price of liberty on this solemn day of remembrance.

I was honored to join the wonderful people of Spalding County today in celebration of the groundbreaking of the Griffin-Spalding Regional Airport. This historic achievement was delivered through the collaboration of federal, state, and local stakeholders, and its construction will create more jobs and grow the economy across Georgia’s 3rd Congressional District.
Thank you to the Under Secretary of Transportation Ryan McCormack, Lt. Governor Burt Jones, and Spalding County leaders for participating in our ceremony today!

Thank you to Georgia EMC and electric membership cooperatives from across our Congressional District for visiting Capitol Hill today!
We discussed support for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Utilities Service, proposed legislation to expedite FEMA reimbursements, and the importance of permitting reform and its ability to lower costs for customers in our District.

Thank you to our brave law enforcement who quickly acted to protect us this evening at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, an annual event that celebrates the First Amendment.
May justice be swiftly served.
