Thank you, Alabama, for allowing me the tremendous opportunity to represent you for 36 years in the U.S. Senate and eight years in the U.S. House. Throughout my career, I’ve strived to strengthen our nation and improve our great state. It’s been an honor. I wish you all the best.

Your Christmas @PKCapitol column: Richard Shelby got 65%~ of vote like clockwork. D or R, “hard right” or RINO.
My hourlong talk with him about his political evolution, feuds with McCain and CIA, and, most important, being “a senator of consequence.”

Pleased that Joe Ritch has been confirmed by the Senate to serve as a member of the Tennessee Valley Authority Board of Directors. Joe was previously the first Alabamian to serve as TVA Board Chair. His return to the Board will be good for TVA & great for North Alabama. Tennessee Valley Authority

Thank you to Aerospace Industries for presenting me with the Wright Stuff Award. I am proud of what Sen. Jim Inhofe, Sen. Patrick Leahy, and I have been able to accomplish in the aerospace and defense industry. There is no wiser investment than that of our military.
