Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1994 and the U.S. Senate in 2002, Lindsey Graham is the current Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. He has previously served as both the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. He is a well-respected leader on national security matters and is known for his work to solve the biggest problems America faces.
Since the horrific October 7th attack on Israel, Senator Graham has visited the region multiple times and is continuing to push to set free the hostages held by Hamas. He believes that America has no better friend than Israel, and will continue to stand up for the only democracy in the Middle East.
During his tenure in the Senate, Senator Graham has led the charge to confirm a record number of conservative judges, reform entitlements, get government out of the way of job creators, rebuild the military, secure the southern border and keep Americans safe by defeating Radical Islam.
Thanks, in part, to Senator Graham’s work and leadership on the Judiciary Committee, Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, along with over 200 federal judges appointed by President Trump in his first term, now sit on the bench. When Republicans controlled the Senate during President Trump’s first administration, critics denounced the committee’s operation as a conveyor belt for conservative judges, a comment Senator Graham considered to be a compliment. Protecting the rule of law and the Constitution has always been a top priority for Lindsey Graham, and he will continue that effort during the second Trump Administration.
Senator Graham continues to be front-and-center on issues of judicial reform, national security, defense spending, and the need to restore America’s leadership position as a force for global stability. He has proven that he has the character and drive to tackle the tough issues and defend our nation.
