Official Team Britt Newsletter | | | Laken Riley Act will be first bill Trump signs | President Donald Trump is set to sign the Laken Riley Act, the first bill of his new administration.
The bill is named after Laken Riley, a Georgia nursing student who was killed in 2024, whose name became a rallying cry during Trump’s White House campaign.
If signed into law, the bill would require the detention of unauthorized immigrants accused of theft and violent crimes, according to the Associated Press. | | | SEN KATIE BRITT: Trump and his team ready to supercharge America's economy and energy sector | We often talk about history repeating itself, but rarely have we seen it as clearly as we do now. In the 1970s, America’s economy was in disaster mode, plagued by historic levels of inflation and stagnant growth.
Our flawed foreign policy led to the Iranian revolution and the abduction of 66 American citizens in Tehran, which only increased costs at home – costs that had already soared through the roof during a long-term energy crisis.
Since January 2021, over the course of former President Biden’s tumultuous time in the White House, the American people have suffered from very similar conditions to those in the late 1970s. The rate of inflation in 2022 hit a 40-year high, and everyday goods and services, like margarine (56.8% increase), car insurance (47.3% increase), and eggs (40.1% increase), cost significantly more than they did in 2020. | | | Republican Sen. Katie Britt Reintroduces Bill To Finish Border Wall Construction | Republican Alabama Sen. Katie Britt will reintroduce legislation Thursday to secure the southern border.
The bill, known as the WALL Act, would appropriate $25 billion to complete the construction of a border wall at the southern border, fulfilling a long-time goal of President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers. Britt’s legislation would be paid for in part by eliminating taxpayer-funded entitlements for illegal migrants and does not increase the national debt, according to background on the bill exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
“President Donald Trump and the Republican majorities in the House and Senate have not just a mandate but an obligation to secure the border and protect American families,” Britt told the DCNF in a statement. “The United States needs a completed border wall — it is just commonsense to have a physical barrier in place to ensure only lawful entry into our country.” | | | | | Alabama values.
