U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville, who has made support for Donald Trump a main part of his message since the former college football coach entered politics five years ago, said he looks forward to helping to advance the president-elect’s agenda in the Senate.

Tuberville’s office, asked if the senator expects to be considered for a Cabinet position in the new Trump administration, said he will remain in the Senate.

“Tuesday night was a clear mandate that Americans are 100% behind President Trump,” Mallory Blount Jaspers, Tuberville’s communications director said. “Sen. Tuberville was the first U.S. Senator to endorse President Trump and he looks forward to championing President Trump’s agenda in the Senate.”

“Sen. Tuberville will help President Trump secure the border, strengthen the military, protect our farmers and veterans, and restore Title IX protections for women and girls everywhere.

“Sen. Tuberville has also spoken with President Trump several times about the importance of moving Space Command back to its rightful home in Huntsville.”

Tuberville, the former head coach at Auburn, was elected to the Senate as a political newcomer in 2020, defeating established candidates in his own party and Democratic Sen. Doug Jones in the general election.
