Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee - For months, I have been in constant communication with the Trump Administration to develop a multi-phased, strategic plan to combat crime in Memphis, leveraging the full extent of both federal and state resources.
The next phase will include a comprehensive mission with the Tennessee National Guard, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Tennessee Highway Patrol, Memphis Police Department, and other law enforcement agencies, and we are working closely with the Trump Administration to determine the most effective role for each of these agencies to best serve Memphians.
Our goal is to accelerate the positive momentum of Operation Viper — an ongoing FBI mission in Memphis with a dedicated task force of federal, state, and local law enforcement that has already arrested hundreds of the most violent offenders. To further support this mission, I have authorized an additional Tennessee Highway Patrol surge in Shelby County, and THP continues to work closely with the Memphis Police Department through the Bluff City Task Force.
I’ve been in close contact with the Administration throughout the week, and will be speaking with President Trump this afternoon to work out details of the mission. I’m grateful for the President’s unwavering support and commitment to providing every resource necessary to serve Memphians, and I look forward to working with local officials and law enforcement to continue delivering results.
As one of America’s world-class cities, Memphis remains on a path to greatness, and we are not going to let anything hold them back.

Governor Bob Ferguson @GovBobFerguson - Let me be very clear: that is at least 80,000 more Washingtonians who will lose health coverage, in addition to the 250,000 Washingtonians we already expect to lose coverage because of Medicaid cuts.

Today, I joined House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Rep. Suzan DelBene, and Rep. Kim Schrier to call on Republicans in Congress to stop their health care price hike.
At least 80,000 Washingtonians can only afford their plans through tax credits that will currently go away on January 1st. If these credits go away, so do their healthcare plans. Premiums will skyrocket for others on the Health Benefit Exchange.
That is morally bankrupt. I say that as a Governor, as a father of teenagers, and as a person of faith.
Grateful to Overlake Medical Center CEO Jon Duarte, Insurance Commissioner Patty Kuderer, impacted community members, and medical staff for joining us.

Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor - The Pitt raked in gigantic Emmy wins tonight, including for Best Drama Series.
This award-winning first season was made possible in part by the nearly doubled @FilmCalifornia Tax Credit — and we're excited that the show is again filming its second season in LA.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer @GovWhitmer - Video: Tyler's building his life and raising his family here in Michigan thanks to a good-paying job fixing our roads. A long-term roads plan means more Michiganders can count on good-paying jobs that keep them, and their talent, here at home.
