U.S. Senator Jim Risch of Idaho issued a statement following President Trump's address to a Joint Session of Congress.

In his remarks, Risch expressed strong support for the policies outlined by President Trump, emphasizing the changes that have occurred over the past four years. He stated, "America is back. For four years, Idahoans faced an economic catastrophe and inflationary disaster, a Green New Deal, a dangerous illegal immigration crisis, and a woke ideological agenda. We will not go back."

Risch praised what he described as President Trump's "commonsense revolution," which he believes is revitalizing the American Dream. He highlighted several key points from the address: "We will end the flagrant waste of taxpayer dollars. We will secure our southern border by finishing the wall. We will root out bureaucratic bloat and restore our freedoms."

The senator concluded with his view on the current state of the nation under President Trump's leadership: "America is safer, more prosperous, and stronger under the leadership of President Trump."
