A little over 100 days ago, President Donald Trump was sworn into office for his second term. In his inaugural speech, he promised to set this country back on track and undo the damage caused by Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. His plan? Secure our southern border, stop inflation, restore law and order, put America First on the world stage, and work every day for the American people.
Not an easy task. But after what this country went through with Biden and Kamala Harris at the helm, President Trump knew there was no time to waste. And he’s kept his promises in record time.
On Day One, President Trump got to work. The president immediately signed executive orders to declare an emergency at the southern border, bring prices down, unleash American energy, combat fentanyl pouring into our country, restore free speech, and make America’s interests a priority again.
This is a president who is truly putting the American people first. His first trip as president was to my home state of North Carolina to tour disaster areas in the wake of Hurricane Helene. His administration has been working to help the Tar Heel State recover ever since he was sworn into office. In fact, the Trump administration recently approved a $1.4 billion grant to aid in recovery efforts in North Carolina.
These successes are just the beginning. Over the past 100 days, President Trump has worked tirelessly to Make America Great Again. But we must remember, this is not just his agenda; this is America’s agenda.
In November, he carried all seven swing states, won the popular vote, and helped Republicans carry the House of Representatives and the United States Senate. Do not listen to the fake news when they tell you this agenda is unpopular. President Trump is delivering exactly what he said he would and what the American people voted for. This is the definition of “Promises Made, Promises Kept.”
So, what’s next?
Looking forward to the next 100 days of this administration and the next four years, we must keep this momentum going. We need to ensure he has the support he needs in Congress throughout his entire term and not just the first two years. If we want to build a foundation for the future of this country and ensure President Trump’s successes last for future generations, we need to elect Republicans up and down the ballot in 2026. We also need to protect the integrity of our elections.
President Trump, the Republican National Committee, and House Republicans have already started this work.
Just a few weeks ago, the president signed an executive order to make sure only American citizens can vote. And the Republican National Committee was involved in more than 170 election integrity lawsuits last cycle—we are not taking our foot off the gas anytime soon.
The future of the United States depends on the policies we set now. If the Democrats gain control of Congress, they will stop the amazing successes of President Trump’s first 100 days dead in their tracks. This is not what the American people want.
If you want the United States to continue building on President Trump’s historic successes, then we need to elect Republicans in the House and Senate, so he has the support he needs throughout his entire four years.
