I join the junior Senator from Virginia in expressing my sincere gratitude to the Salvation Army for all they do to support and provide for Americans across the Nation.
For over a century, the Salvation Army has been committed to “Doing the Most Good.” This good is carried out in countless ways including feeding the hungry, rebuilding homes, providing addiction recovery services, assisting with disaster relief, and combating human trafficking. For the past 160 years, it has been evident: Where there is need, the Salvation Army steps up.
annually, offering warm beds, nutritious meals, and financial assistance. I am especially grateful for Alabama's local Salvation Army units for their tireless efforts and impactful work within our communities. After several tornadoes hit our State in 2023, the Salvation Army came to Alabama's aid to provide resources including over 1,800 meals for affected families. Each year, the Salvation Army partners with the University of Alabama at Birmingham to bring gifts and joy to thousands of children during the Christmas season. And in true Alabama fashion, local Salvation Army chapters have mobilized to the frontlines of disaster response across the Nation to lend a helping hand and provide essential supplies to families devastated by natural disasters.

my deep appreciation for the Salvation Army's tireless work in uplifting lives, strengthening communities, and “Doing the Most Good” for Americans across our Nation.
