WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Ronny Jackson (TX-13) released the following statement on President-elect Trump’s picks for his administration. 

Jackson said: “It is time to shake the foundations of our nation’s capital, and President-elect Trump has already begun doing so by tapping an incredibly talented team thus far to execute his national security agenda in pursuing peace through strength once again through decisive America first policies. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, and the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I am looking forward to working with these highly qualified appointees, including Senator Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, Representative Mike Waltz, Governor Kristi Noem, Tom Homan, Stephen Miller, John Ratcliffe, Representative Elise Stefanik, and Tulsi Gabbard as they lead their respective departments or agencies with diligence and integrity. I am confident they will rapidly turn these offices and agencies around by ridding them of waste and ensuring we work efficiently to deliver President Trump’s agenda. 

The American people, including an overwhelming number of my constituents from Texas’ Thirteenth Congressional District, have issued a mandate by reelecting President Trump to put America first and make our country great, safe, healthy, and affordable again. I look forward to working with the Trump administration to immediately begin undoing the damage of the past four years by delivering on promises to secure our borders, support our allies, stand up to our adversaries, and bolster our military. The great American comeback is already taking effect. I’m excited for the future of our country and to work with this historic incoming second Trump administration to restore the safety and security of our world.”
