I voted for today’s funding bills—while far from perfect—because they contained legislation I fought for that reduces youth vaping, supports Utah’s @HAFB, repeals harmful Obamacare taxes, and protects rural Utah communities.

@HAFB Important to our national security:
✔️ Funds nearly 100 F-35s (maintained & repaired at Utah’s @HAFB)
✔️ Modernizes our missile defense system
✔️ Reauthorizes our E-Verify program

Raising the tobacco age to 21 helps protect kids from addiction. Today’s funding bills also:
✔️ Permanently repeals the medical device tax
✔️ Lowers health care costs for millions of Americans
✔️ Orders @US_FDA review of vaping cartridges to ensure they’re tamper proof

@US_FDA Today’s funding bills protect rural Utah communities:
✔️ Reauthorizes programs that support rural law enforcement, county services, and schools
✔️ Funds wildfire suppression & prevention activities
✔️ Helps @BLMNational manage wild horses & burros

@US_FDA @BLMNational We also need to take action to address the drivers of our debt and preserve our trust funds for the future. I’ve introduced the bipartisan, bicameral TRUST Act which would form rescue committees to solve this looming crisis. You can learn more→
