The Sunshine State
@NYCMayor Zohran Mamdani is right to say housing is unaffordable, but socialism is NEVER THE ANSWER! @POTUS has been working to get big government out of the way and cut regulations, but Congress must DO ITS JOB too. It’s time to get government the heck out of people’s lives so hardworking Americans can own a house and have a shot at their dream.

I’ve been hearing from families in the Tampa Bay Area who’re concerned about this. I encourage local health officials to put out more specific details about where in Hillsborough County this is occurring so families can protect themselves.

For Mike and Tony Cocchiola and their family, the American Dream meant bringing a piece of home with them. IMECA was already an iconic business in Venezuela. When the Cocchiola family came to the United States, they built their business here from the ground up while preserving the roots, values and entrepreneurial spirit that shaped their family. Today, IMECA has a presence across Florida and continues to grow throughout the United States. Their story is a great example of the American Dream in action, and one we’re proud to celebrate this #HispanicHeritageMonth! LISTEN ⬇️

Para Mike y Tony Cocchiola y su familia, el sueño americano significaba traer un pedazo de casa con ellos. IMECA ya era un negocio icónico en Venezuela. Cuando la familia Cocchiola llegó a los Estados Unidos, construyeron su negocio aquí desde cero mientras preservaban las raíces, los valores y el espíritu emprendedor que dieron forma a su familia. Hoy en día, IMECA tiene presencia en toda Florida y continúa creciendo en Estados Unidos. Su historia es un gran ejemplo del sueño americano en acción, y estamos orgullosos de celebrarla este #HispanicHeritageMonth! ESCUCHA ⬇️

I’ve been clear: Delcy Rodríguez is NOT the legitimate president of Venezuela. She is a cartel leader who must cooperate with the United States as we work toward a true democratic transition and ensure the commitments that have been made are fulfilled. The United States knows exactly who Delcy Rodríguez is. We must restore Venezuela’s democratic institutions, beginning with a legitimate Supreme Court that can guarantee free and fair elections. And for those elections to truly be free, ALL candidates must have the freedom to run and campaign without oppression, intimidation or persecution — starting with @MariaCorinaYA. She must be able to return home and live, organize and participate freely in her own country. That also means every political prisoner must be released — no exceptions, no conditions. Venezuela cannot be free while innocent people remain behind bars for standing up to this evil regime. Thanks to the leadership of @POTUS and @SecRubio, we are getting closer every day to seeing the Venezuelan people finally have the freedom, democracy and future they have fought and sacrificed for.

He sido claro: Delcy Rodríguez NO es la Presidenta legítima de Venezuela. Ella es una líder de carteles que debe cooperar con los Estados Unidos mientras trabajamos hacia una verdadera transición democrática y garantizamos que se cumplan los compromisos que se han hecho. Estados Unidos sabe exactamente quién es Delcy Rodríguez. Debemos restaurar las instituciones democráticas de Venezuela, comenzando con un TSJ legítimo que pueda garantizar elecciones libres y justas. Y para que esas elecciones sean realmente libres, TODOS los candidatos deben tener la libertad de postularse y hacer campaña sin opresión, intimidación o persecución, comenzando por @MariaCorinaYA. Ella debe poder regresar a casa y vivir, organizarse y participar libremente en su propio país. Eso también significa que todos los prisioneros políticos deben ser liberados, sin excepciones, sin condiciones. Venezuela no puede ser libre mientras personas inocentes permanezcan tras las rejas por hacer frente a este malvado régimen. Gracias al liderazgo de @POTUS y @SecRubio, estamos cada día más cerca de ver que el pueblo venezolano finalmente tiene la libertad, la democracia y el futuro por el que han luchado y se han sacrificado.

THANK YOU @WHOMB for helping federal agencies identify opportunities to STRENGTHEN drug manufacturing in America. This is a great step toward making sure we have safe, AMERICAN-MADE medicines and the ingredients needed to make them. 🇺🇸

Great news from the Supreme Court today. It’s still long past time for Congress to do its part to secure our elections. We need to pass the SAVE America Act ASAP and get this DONE! 🇺🇸

Another quality control recall of drugs manufactured in India. This is EXACTLY why we can’t trust medicines made by foreign manufacturers and we need to pass Chairman @SenRickScott’s CLEAR LABELS Act! We have to STOP being dependent on Communist China and India. It’s time to make medicines IN AMERICA to keep us SAFE!
Thousands of bottles of a generic diuretic used for high blood pressure and fluid retention are being recalled after failed testing. India-based Inventia Healthcare Limited is pulling 13,567 bottles of 25-milligram chlorthalidone nationwide because of a “failed dissolution specification,” meaning the active ingredient did not dissolve properly and may not be absorbed as intended. The FDA classified the Sept. 3 recall as Class II on Sept. 17, a category in which exposure may cause temporary or medically reversible harm and the chance of serious harm is remote.

Happy National Daughters Day to all daughters, especially our two amazing girls, Allison and Jordan!

Raising the two of you has been one of the greatest joys of our lives and we’re blessed to watch you continue to grow. We love you both more than you know! ❤️

Birth tourism is a severe threat to our national security. Thank you, @SecRubio, for cracking down on it! Congress needs to take action, too. Pass my SAFE KIDS Act so we can stop our foreign adversaries from scamming their way into American citizenship.

Proud to announce that my and @MarshaBlackburn’s Romance Scam Prevention Act just PASSED the Senate! This bill requires dating apps to notify users if someone messaging them is suspected of scamming others. As Chairman of the @SenateAging Committee, I’ve heard so many heartbreaking stories of romance scams exploiting our seniors, taking their savings and leaving them feeling emotionally broken. This bill is a great step toward stopping scammers from exploiting innocent Americans. I look forward to @POTUS signing it into law ASAP!

Americans’ safety ALWAYS comes FIRST. The greatest nation in the world should be 100% certain we aren’t giving visas to CHILD PREDATORS to come work in our country. My new bill, the SCREEN Act, would fix a glaring oversight in federal law and keep our kids SAFE.

Anyone can see where their clothes are made, but even pharmacists don't know which countries many of our medicines are from. That’s horrifying! Chairman @SenRickScott’s CLEAR LABELS Act will add much-needed transparency to our drug supply chain, so Americans know EXACTLY what they’re taking and where it’s from!

As Chairman of @SenateAging, I’ve been fighting to secure America’s drug supply chain from foreign enemies like Communist China. This week, the Trump administration announced HUGE NEWS about the progress they’re making to make our medicines in America! Here’s what you need to know ⬇️

🚨 Communist China is clearly meddling in U.S. agriculture & nobody is talking about it. The CCP has made it clear it wants to hijack our agricultural industry & food supply. THAT CAN’T HAPPEN! We have some big votes coming up with the Farm Bill & this problem needs to get fixed.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE 🚨 The Smithfield-China lobbying cover-up scandal I exposed last week just got worse. Just 24 hours after my exclusive viral story last week about how China-owned Smithfield’s @SmithfieldFoods @SmithfieldBrand longtime lobbyist from @GT_Law Greenberg Traurig hid the company’s Chinese ties and was forced to report it after a watchdog complaint, Smithfield’s lobbying disclosure was amended AGAIN on Sept. 3 to ERASE any mention of the company’s CCP-linked Chinese owner 万洲国际 (WH Group). This is super shady. Here’s the timeline: On July 20, Smithfield lobbyist Christopher DeLacy at Greenberg Traurig @GT_Law checked "NONE" on the foreign-interest disclosure box when asked on a federal form whether his lobbying for Smithfield to influence the Farm Bill and allow China to own U.S. farm land benefited any foreign interests. They wrote the same thing on all disclosure reports dating back to 2023. On August 18, after a watchdog group filed a federal complaint, the disclosure form was amended and resubmitted to add that Smithfield’s Chinese owner 万洲国际 (WH Group) had an interest in the lobbying. Then, on September 3, one day after I exposed the coverup and it went viral, the firm submitted another amendment to its lobbying disclosure that completely deleted any mention of Smithfield’s Chinese owner (after adding it 2 weeks earlier). What the hell is going on? Smithfield is 87% owned by China. Their CCP-connected Chinese owner obviously has an interest in their lobbying on the Farm Bill, the Save Our Bacon Act, and other efforts to give Communist China more control of the US food supply. With the next Farm Bill vote approaching soon, Smithfield’s lobbyist’s cover-up of the company’s Chinese ties is extremely alarming and needs to be investigated immediately. Congress, the Trump Treasury Department and the American people deserve the truth about the extent of China’s dangerous influence over our agriculture and food policy.
