The Big Beautiful Bill is a generational investment in American manufacturing and our military. It includes critical funds for renewed shipbuilding and a historic, landmark investment in unmanned ships and drones.

After two years of bloodshed that started with the horrific October 7th attacks carried out by Hamas against Israel, the people in the region may finally have hope for a lasting peace. I commend the president, Secretary Rubio, and all those who worked diligently to bring about a…

A strategy based on peace through strength is the best approach for deterring China, Russia and Iran—the axis of aggression. It requires sustained defense spending that equals 5% of GDP, write @SenatorWicker and @SenatorFischer on.wsj.com/4gTh32I

America’s Pacific allies are on the front lines deterring Chinese aggression. In the @WSJ, @SenatorWicker and @SenatorFischer make the case for why sustained U.S. support is vital to preserving peace through strength in the Indo-Pacific. wsj.com/opinion/pacifi…


Chairman @SenatorWicker on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA): "While we’re at an impasse, and the Senate is still in session, it seems to me a reasonable thing to do to bring this bipartisan, noncontroversial -but highly significant- bill to the floor."

HAPPY SATURDAY AMERICA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸


Good to see @anduriltech and others pushing forward on ground-launched low-cost cruise missiles. There is currently no program for these types of missiles, but there will be soon. Reconciliation sets aside $25M to accelerate development.

Successful test of a prototype surface-launched Barracuda-500. We’re investing our own resources to deliver more affordable, producible, and flexible long range precision fires to the U.S. and our allies.

.@POTUS is exactly right. Putin only understands pure military strength and economic pain. President Trump and I believe Ukraine can win – a fact President Biden avoided saying for years. It is time to ramp up pressure on Putin to end this senseless bloodshed.

🚨 "...Putin and Russia are in BIG Economic trouble, and this is the time for Ukraine to act. In any event, I wish both Countries well. We will continue to supply weapons to NATO for NATO to do what they want with them. Good luck to all!" - PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Chairman @SenatorWicker & @KTmBoyle in the @washingtonpost: By cutting red tape and supporting innovation, the Pentagon can jump-start an American manufacturing comeback. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…


Low-cost air defense must be a top priority. The cannon-launched hypervelocity program has great promise. That's why @SenatorWicker and @RepMikeRogersAL provided $167m in reconciliation to prevent its cancelation and accelerated it instead.

The Senate Armed Services Committee is juggling a fairly aggressive confirmation schedule. Leading the efforts behind the scenes is John Keast, the staff director for @SASCGOP. Read more about one of the 25 sta­ffers who make Capitol Hill run: trib.al/bXYKYy2


Congrats to @PDW_ai, @SenTuberville, @SenKatieBritt, @RepMikeRogersAL, and @RepDaleStrong on this new drone production facility. With our investment of $2.5 B in drone production, we are going to reposition America as a leader in this tech and equip our warfighters at scale.

Alabama-based Performance Drone Works announced the official opening of Drone Factory 01 in Huntsville, a “state-of-the-art” production facility that the company says will be able to churn out over 60,000 FPV drones a year. tectonicdefense.com/pdw-opens-dron…

This annual defense bill is one of the most important things we do each year. I appreciate the hard work that Chairman @SenatorWicker and our colleagues on @SASCGOP have done to put forward a strong, bipartisan bill and get it ready for the floor.

The Taiwanese people and their resolve to live in a free society are a symbol of hope for the world. I’m glad to be here and to stand shoulder to shoulder with the free people of Taiwan as we work together to enhance their right to self-determination.
