RGood explanation of the strategic importance of the new security agreement to expand US defense presence and capabilities in Greenland. America is safer because of this, particularly if/when we complete new Golden Dome counter-missile defense. 🇺🇸
As part of the HISTORIC amount of funding from Congress, Washington State University now has plant science research laboratories in that are the MOST ADVANCED IN THE WORLD . It was great to join Cathy Rodgers and Sen. Patty M for the groundbreaking. (Also cool that WSU gave Cathy a well deserved Honorary Alumnus award!) These laboratories will be used to make sure that America continues to lead in potato, lentil and wheat production- areas China is throwing tons of research $ into their own production as they seek to dominate critical food security supply chains. Ag is huge for our economy and I’m very proud to have helped support an investment in research funding that will return $ billions for our state. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/1O0JyeQhsw
Save our Dams! It would be a disaster for E. Washington and the entire state to remove our Snake River dams. It’s how our wheat gets to market and how we generate clean power for our homes. Those dams were authorized by Congress for the express purpose of river navigation and they aren’t going anywhere on my watch. 🇺🇸
Every time ballots drop in Washington state, I’m reminded of Seattle Democrat Congresswoman expressing her distrust in our elections by trying to stop the certification of Trump’s first election in the House. I support the SAVE act because it will help restore trust in our elections on both sides of the aisle. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/TodaVypMcR
Great to stop by the EWU booth at the the Spokane college fair! With so many great local colleges, I’m not sure why so many students go so far out of state. Fine if you want the experience, BUT DONT GO INTO DEBT FOR A BACHELOR DEGREE! 🇺🇸 https://t.co/WgGVZVmGWD
The puppet master special interests who control Olympia are spending addicts. Giving them access to your wallets with a new income tax is like giving a crack pipe to a junkie. It will not end well. 🇺🇸
Well deserved. Cathy is 100% a Coug! (One on my favorite CMR stories is when her former Chief of Staff tried to wear a purple shirt in Pullman’s lentil festival and Cathy made him wake up early to go shopping for something Crimson😂) Also, despite all the partisan fighting you hear about in DC, it was productive to work with Sen Patty M for record research funding for WSU this year. Nice event.🇺🇸
Thank you to the NAACP for hosting the 3rd debate of our Congressional election. I really enjoy debating, talking policy and most of all hearing from folks all across E. WA - particularly to traditionally non-Republican gatherings who might have different viewpoints. Over the last two years we did 15 Town Halls and I think the 4 debates I’m doing may be near the most in the country for any incumbent member of Congress. (Still far short of the 19! debates and forums I did in my very first run for state Senate in 2010. ;)
It’s great to be supported by Ag leaders across our state. I was pleased to see the Farm Bill pass out of the House earlier this year - which my amendment to increase irrigated land in E. WA! Nobody has been a bigger advocate of extending the Columbia Basin irrigation project than Mary Dye - and it’s wonderful to have her support! 🇺🇸
We don’t usually promote our opponent’s social media, but staff asked me to make an exception for this one. 😂🇺🇸 https://t.co/0BwgvnK4LA
Happy 251st Birthday to the United States Navy! 🇺🇸⚓ Today we honor the sailors who have served and sacrificed to protect our nation and defend our freedom. Thank you to the men and women of the U.S. Navy, past and present, for your service and dedication to our country. https://t.co/bE3gL4zRkO
Shout out to my father David who spent 40 yrs as a Professor of Forestry at Washington State University and received numerous awards and recognitions, including WSU’s Faculty Excellence award! Love you, dad! ❤️🇺🇸 https://t.co/L9UWJ8n9MS
Grateful to be recognized with an “A” rating from the Institute for Legislative Analysis for my 2025–2026 voting record. https://t.co/k3lNEAGPXX
Happy Columbus Day! One of the most historic depictions of Columbus is this painting on display in the Rotunda of the US Capitol. If you’re from E. WA and would like to view the painting in person, please be in touch with my office to arrange a tour! 🇺🇸 https://t.co/PgGqosHp8N
I’m proud to have the endorsement of Bill Moos. His decision to hire Mike Leach was one of the best decisions in school history. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/d5735tivja
Fun time running the Spokane 1/2 marathon with my wonderful Eleanor to celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary! ❤️🇺🇸 https://t.co/A4ErsKLTRo
Was Woody Dixon in the replay booth?
Happy anniversary to my most wonderful ❤️🇺🇸 https://t.co/ETggGcH88T
ICC is a serious threat to our men and women in uniform and needs to be driven out of existence. Good move. 🇺🇸
I support bringing this terrorist to justice. I do not support the public livestream of the execution. This should be reconsidered. 🇺🇸
🇺🇸 Flashback Friday: Congressman Baumgartner is committed to securing our border, supporting law enforcement, and keeping American communities safe. He’ll continue fighting for policies that put the safety of Americans first. https://t.co/YjQMcxjEFy
I’ve been busy watching the Cougs, curious how UW is doing? 🇺🇸
John Braun is one of the smartest and highest character public servants I have ever worked with. America has a lot of challenges to face. We have a better chance of meeting them if John Braun is in Congress. 🇺🇸
Grateful for this recognition, but the real work is always back home. Standing up for WA-05 families by voting to protect your paycheck and limit government spending. 💼🇺🇸 https://t.co/CJlCIaoMUv
Fun and busy day. Great to chat with @TVWnews about improving government budgeting and then head over to @GonzagaU to discuss how to advocate effectively with an outstanding class of senior leaders. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/4Lm1jV1vld
