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,
All eyes are on Thom and his fellow Senate Republicans as they fight to cut
taxes for families, boost small businesses, and deliver historic reforms that
grow the economy.
The good news? North Carolina is already seeing the results of President
Trump’s America-first policies. Just this week,Amazon
<[link removed]> announced it will
invest $10 billion in North Carolina data centers—bringing more good-paying
jobs back to the U.S. to strengthen our economy and boost the growing science
and technology sector.
News like this underscores the fact that putting our country first is getting
us back on track, and Thom is working every day to ensure the wins keep coming.

Fighting For North Carolina: Thom Helps Secure Helene Recovery Funding and
Introduces Legislation to Prepare for the Future
This week, the Economic Development Administration (EDA) announced an
allocation of $1.45 billion in federal funding for disaster-impacted
communities, including Western North Carolina. The announcement follows a
bipartisan letter Thom authored with members of North Carolina’s congressional
delegation to the Trump Administration, urging the EDA to issue a Notice of
Funding Opportunity as quickly as possible.
And with another hurricane season underway, Thom also introduced legislation
to replenish the Disaster Relief Fund (DRF) to ensure FEMA has the financial
resources it needs to respond to natural disasters in the months ahead. The
legislation would provide $25 billion, which would fulfill President Trump’s
historic funding request for Congress.
“With Western North Carolina still recovering from Helene and an above-normal
hurricane season expected this year, we have to ensure that FEMA has the
constant flow of resources it needs to help states respond to natural
disasters,” Thom said.“Congress shouldn’t wait until the last minute, and I’m
proud to lead the effort to replenish the DRF and ensure that President Trump’s
request is fulfilled…”
In The News: WSJ Highlights Thom’s Bill to End Predatory Litigation Funding
Practices
<[link removed]>
The Wall Street Journal published an editorial supporting the Tackling
Predatory Litigation Funding Act, Thom’s legislation that would impose a new
tax on profits earned by third-party entities that finance civil litigation and
curb predatory practices in the litigation funding industry.
As the editorial states, the provision would require U.S. and foreign
litigation funders to “pay tax on their earnings at the ordinary income rate
(typically 37%), plus a 3.8% surcharge.”
This bill could help cut down on unnecessary lawsuits, which the U.S. Chamber
of Commerce says cost the average American household about $4,200 in 2022.

Legislative Highlight: Thom Fights for Shelter Pets with Bipartisan BARK Bill
Thom is standing up for animals with the reintroduction of the Bring Animals
Relief and Kibble Act, a bipartisan bill he’s sponsoring with Reverend Raphael
Warnock (D-GA).
Here’s what Thom had to say about the legislation:
“Every year, pet stores throw out surplus pet food, which could easily be
donated to feed hungry pets in animal shelters. This commonsense legislation
removes unnecessary bureaucratic restrictions that keep many pet stores from
donating food to animal shelters. No shelter pet should have to go hungry when
so many pet stores have a surplus of readily available food.”
This bill is endorsed by the Humane World Action Fund, Best Friends Animal
Society, Pet Food Institute, and American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals (ASPCA).

Make it Monthly: Recurring Donations Fuel our Campaign
Thom’s 2026 campaign is the #1 Senate race in the country. Democrats will
throw everything they have at us to try to flip this seat and regain control
from Republicans in the Senate. We can’t let that happen.
But we need all the help we can get if we want to stand a chance against the
Democrat-funded machine. Recurring donors fuel our campaign and allow us to
have a steady stream of resources to fight against attacks from the Left.Will
you become a recurring donor today to fuel Team Tillis and hold onto a
Republican majority in 2026?
