U.S. Senator John Cornyn has issued a statement following President Trump's victory in the recent Presidential election. In his remarks, Cornyn extended his congratulations to Trump, emphasizing the dissatisfaction of Texans with Democratic policies.

"Congratulations to President Trump on his historic victory," said Cornyn.

He stressed the importance of Senate readiness to support Trump's agenda from day one by confirming nominees, passing budgets, addressing national debt, extending tax cuts, and reversing certain border security policies.

Reflecting on past collaborations with Trump during his tenure as Senate Majority Whip, Cornyn highlighted achievements such as tax reform and Supreme Court confirmations. He looks forward to working alongside Trump and Republican colleagues in advancing the new administration's goals.

Cornyn concluded by expressing his commitment to making America great again through effective Senate operations.
