Today, Congressman Jim Baird (IN-04) released the following statement after President Donald J. Trump’s Joint Address to Congress:

“For four years, Hoosiers were buckling under the numerous crises caused by President Biden and Congressional Democrats’ failed leadership. Tonight, President Trump laid out his bold agenda to renew the American dream and restore American excellence.

“President Trump has been working at a rapid pace to deliver on his successful America First agenda. The president is already reclaiming our leadership on the world stage and will restore peace in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. This is a far cry from President Biden’s failed foreign policy of appeasement.

“In his first month in office, the President took executive action to secure our southern border and sign the Laken Riley Act into law. As a result, we have seen the lowest number of monthly illegal border crossings on record. The Trump Administration is also taking historic action to unleash American energy dominance, rescind burdensome regulations, drive investment in American industries, root out waste, fraud, and abuse in our federal government, and lower costs for Hoosiers to ensure the American Dream is more achievable than ever.

“President Trump’s Joint Address made it clear: under President Trump and House and Senate Republicans’ leadership, this is truly the beginning of the Golden Age of America, and we will work hard to make the American Dream a reality once again.”
