However, the Holt Lock is one of three failed locks this year alone on the Tenn-Tom waterway in Alabama. We’re unrealistically expecting our infrastructure along waterways to continue operating, many past their intended lifespan, without making significant investments in their condition. This threatens to disrupt our supply chain and hurts businesses up and down the rivers who depend upon navigable waterways. Three years ago, Kamala Harris and Joe Biden forced taxpayers to foot the bill for the $1.2 trillion infrastructure deal. Unfortunately, less than 20% of the money has been spent – and Alabama businesses and communities are bearing the brunt. Instead of continuing to send billions of taxpayer dollars to Ukraine, Kamala Harris and Joe Biden should focus on making sure basic American infrastructure needs are being met.” -Senator Tommy Tuberville Senator Tommy Tuberville represents Alabama in the United States Senate and is a member of the Senate Armed Services, Agriculture, Veterans’ Affairs, and HELP Committees. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:55:29Z |
