Welcome to our Team Tillis newsletter, where we discuss what Thom has been up to from the campaign trail to Capitol Hill, and everything in between! |

Friend, A new month is upon us, and Thom remains steadfast in his commitment to getting President Trump’s cabinet confirmed so they can begin delivering results for the American people. Those who have been through the process successfully are already securing major wins. For example, Attorney General Pam Bondi just announced that 29 wanted criminals from Mexico have been taken into U.S. custody since she took office. As Thom pointed out, one of these thugs was responsible for the tragic death of Wake County Deputy Sheriff Ned Byrd. After years on the run, he will finally face justice. This is exactly why it’s critical to support President Trump and push forward the America First agenda. We must continue to put law and order first, secure our borders, and ensure that criminals are held accountable—because American lives depend on it. -Team Tillis |
Confirmations Continue: 20 Down, Only a Few More to Go!
|
Thom has been working at a historic pace to help confirm President Donald J. Trump’s cabinet nominees—securing 20 confirmations so far. Congratulations to Dan Driscoll, who was just confirmed as Secretary of the Army. Thom was proud to vote for a fellow North Carolinian and looking forward to working with Dan to ensure our service members, particularly those at Fort Bragg, have the resources they need to succeed. |
This week, Thom also voted to confirm Jamieson Greer as United States Trade Representative. Jamieson is dedicated to promoting America’s interests, and we’re confident he will do a great job. But we’re not finished yet! If all goes as planned, Linda McMahon will be our new Secretary of Education, which will be a critical pick as President Trump looks to restructure America’s education system to better serve our children. → Read more: Following key wins, Trump poised for cabinet completion in record time (Fox News) |

Legislative Highlights: Plasma-Based Medicines and Rural Healthcare
|
Thom had healthcare top-of-mind this week as he introduced two pieces of legislation with various Senate colleagues. Along with Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ), he introduced the bipartisan Preserving Life-saving Access to Specialty Medicines in America (PLASMA) Act, legislation to ensure individuals with rare diseases and immunodeficiencies have access to necessary plasma-based medicines. It’s important that critical patients with rare diseases and immunodeficiencies have uninterrupted access to the life-saving plasma-based medicines they need, and this commonsense legislation increases access and affordability. Additionally, he helped introduce the Conrad State 30 and Physician Access Reauthorization Act, bipartisan legislation to increase the number of doctors working in rural and medically underserved areas. As Thom pointed out, too many rural areas in North Carolina and across the country lack the health care workforce needed to provide quality and timely care. This bipartisan legislation allows American-trained doctors to help fill those gaps so we can expand access to critical health care in medically underserved areas. → Read more: Bipartisan effort led by Senators Tillis, Klobuchar to boost rural healthcare with new legislation (Hoodline)

Apple announced this week that it will spend more than $500 billion in the U.S. over the next four years, and North Carolina will directly benefit from this investment. After a meeting between President Trump and Apple CEO Tim Cook, the tech giant announced that Apple teams and facilities will expand in nine states, including North Carolina. As Thom put it, the company’s decision to expand its data center capacity in North Carolina is a great win for the state and will help create thousands of new jobs for our residents. → Read more: Apple's $500B U.S. expansion plans include North Carolina (Axios Charlotte)
