Disrupting the financial networks that support organized crime is an important part of combating transnational criminal organizations. Targeting illicit revenue streams can complement broader efforts to reduce drug trafficking and improve public safety.
We are proud to introduce the Mass Timber Federal Buildings Act, legislation that supports our nation's timber industry, expands markets, and strengthens mills across the country.
American forests, like our very own Allegheny National Forest, are tremendous natural resources, and when managed responsibly, they serve as a long-term source of high-quality timber.

Robert Gabriel has done a stellar job as DNSA aligning economic policy with national security goals.
He has been a great partner in driving efforts to reindustrialize the U.S. economy, re-shore production and investment, and prioritize our financial and capital markets.
Strong partnerships with allies help reinforce economic security, financial cooperation, and resilient investment frameworks. Continued dialogue is key to addressing shared global challenges.
Assistant Secretary Chris Pilkerton spoke at the @SelectUSA Investment Summit to highlight the positive impact of foreign direct investment and to advance a new OIS initiative – the Strategic Vendor Program. This program seeks to identify and support critical components of our domestic supply chain to further protect the national security of our country.
The American Dream belongs to every child. Today, we are equipping the next generation to claim their rightful share.

Building resilient supply chains and strengthening domestic production remain central themes in discussions about long-term economic competitiveness and national resilience.
Fort Knox holds roughly 147 million ounces of gold. More than half of America's total reserves. Hundreds of billions of dollars sitting in one vault in Kentucky.
The last full physical audit was in 1953.
The 1974 "audit" everyone points to was a tour. They opened one section for a handful of Congress members and reporters, showed some bars, took some pictures, and closed the door.
No full count. No independent weighing. No purity testing of every bar. Nothing close to real verification.
That was over 50 years ago.
The Treasury says internal reviews happen and the books balance. Maybe they do. But this is the public's gold. It belongs to the American people, and no independent party has verified it exists in more than half a century.
Germany physically verified and repatriated its gold. The Netherlands did the same. The technology exists to audit every single bar with serial tracking, assay testing, and tamper-evident seals without compromising security.
If everything checks out, confidence in US reserves gets stronger.
If it does not check out, we deserve to know.
There is legislation floating around that would require an independent audit every few years. It should not be controversial.
Audit Fort Knox.
The Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act was written by agriculture, for agriculture. It was an honor to stand beside so many producers as we introduced this vital bill on Tuesday. Watch a recap of the press conference video below ⬇️
Chairman @SECPaulSAtkins: "Under this SEC, we have ended the 'regulation by enforcement' approach of the past and recentered enforcement efforts on the Commission’s core mission by prioritizing cases that provide meaningful investor protection and strengthen market integrity."
🚨 JUST NOW: President Trump instructs Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent to REFUSE to give back the bell he rang this morning for the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ in the Oval Office
🤣🤣
"They're gonna have to FIGHT LIKE HELL to get it back. We're not giving it back. Do you understand that, Scott? Don't let it leave! It's so beautiful. That's the bell we rang."
Following the devastating earthquakes in Venezuela, humanitarian assistance is critical. Expanded authorizations to support emergency relief can help aid organizations deliver assistance more efficiently to affected communities during recovery.
On this day, July 5, 1865, the @SecretService was established under @USTreasury to protect the integrity of our nation’s financial system.
Yesterday, they once again demonstrated their professionalism, safely evacuating attendees and welcoming everyone back for @POTUS' remarks and the fireworks.
Thank you to the United States Secret Service and all law enforcement officers who keep America safe.
WATCH: @SecScottBessent Participates in the Launch of @TrumpAccounts: "The American Dream belongs to every child, and today we are equipping the next generation with the right to claim their rightful share of it. Through Trump Accounts, @POTUS is creating an ownership economy where all citizens become shareholders. 38 percent of American families do not have any exposure to our great equity markets, but with Trump Accounts, over time, we can get that number to zero."
