Senator Rand Paul

I fight for Kentucky, individual rights, and the Constitution | This is an official government account for Senator Rand Paul.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

A compilation of some of my fight against the circus of poison pills & petty grudges.

The embarrassing display by Democrats & others showed how broken & futile Washington has become. I’m glad we finally broke through the obstruction & passed funding for Border Patrol & ICE.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

Back when TikTok faced calls for a ban, I said what still holds true today: the First Amendment is not up for negotiation. In America, we confront bad ideas with better ideas, not censorship.

🚨 NEW DOCUMENTS: NIH scientists charged with attempting to smuggle monkeypox into the United States had a years-long history of skirting rules for moving dangerous pathogens.

2/ I previously revealed that Vincent Munster of NIH’s Rocky Mountain Laboratories was also part of the initial pitch for a DARPA proposal known as DEFUSE to create coronaviruses that would have been suspiciously similar to COVID-19 — with EcoHealth Alliance, the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and Ralph Baric.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

Today marks 14 years of @TPUSA.

Charlie, your tireless dedication and courage built this movement—we miss you deeply. Securing that hard-fought DHS funding victory felt like a nod from you, encouraging us to keep up the good fight. Your legacy lives on.

Rest in peace, @charliekirk11. Thank you @TPAction for the perfect 100% on the border. So grateful.

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

Senator Rand Paul is always leading to put AMERICA FIRST!

It's purely irresponsible to let FISA 702 be reauthorized without a warrant requirement for American citizens.

That's insane.

[Chad Pergram @ChadPergram]

Pre-dawn development: The Senate just blocked a procedural vote to renew FISA for 3 years, 52 noes to 47 yeas.

GOPers Tuberville, Rick Scott, Paul, Schmitt, Lee, Hawley and Kennedy voted nay.

The installation of Bill Pulte as Acting DNI torched a bipartisan deal on FISA. The GOP needed Dem help on this. But Pulte blew that up as Dems weren’t willing to help.

Current FISA authorization expires in a little more than a week

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

I led the effort to fully fund ICE and Border Patrol, and I make no apologies for it.

[Homeland Security @DHSgov]

Each and every day, our @ICEgov law enforcement put their lives on the line to keep the American people safe.

Despite this, sanctuary politicians continue to smear our officers — leading to a massive increase in assaults, threats against their families, and violence against them.

The violence against law enforcement must end.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

There should never be a situation where any Republican who campaigned on @POTUS’s America First agenda turns around & rallies with Democrats to poison-pill a straightforward bill funding ICE & Border Patrol.

I shot down this unrelated amendment, and we got the funding passed.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

As Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, last month I pledged to restore the funding for border security and immigration enforcement that Democrats blocked. Today, the Senate passed my legislation to fund our Border Patrol and DHS law enforcement for the rest of the Trump Administration. With this bill, Democrats can no longer hold the paychecks of those protecting us and securing our country hostage. I am proud of the work we did to defeat every attempt by Democrats to block this vital funding.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

I am proud for of President Trump for standing up for what is best for our country. I will continue to support his mission to end this war.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

Democrats have been unserious about border security, repeatedly holding DHS funding hostage. I led Senate Republicans in overcoming their obstruction by crafting the bill directly in my committee, allowing us to swerve around the roadblocks & secure its passage. I am proud to support President Trump’s effective mission that’s delivering record-low levels of illegal border crossings.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

11 hours later, I'm still standing in the way of Democrats attempting to hijack border security funding.

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

@LindseyGrahamSC @RandPaul Cheers to that

[Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul]

Senate Democrats have forced law enforcement officers at DHS to go without funding for 110 days.

Now, they've taken about 10 hours soapboxing on the Senate floor about how much they love illegal aliens & hate President Trump.

They love wasting time & a whole lot of money.
