In the time it takes you to read this post, our national debt will have increased $15 million. You all need to understand just how serious this issue is. Compounding the problem is that -- except for a small group of conservatives -- there is NO DESIRE in Washington to deal with this crisis. We're now spending so much that another trillion dollars is added to our national debt… Read more »

In the dead of the night on Thursday at 2 am, the Swamp unleashed their second massive 1,000+ page minibus that amounts to a shocking $1.2 trillion in spending.  House Leadership broke the 72-hour rule that gives Members 3 days to read and review legislation, and a vote was taken in the House this morning. We were not given the chance to offer amendments or debate it. This +1,000… Read more »

Agribusiness is South Carolina's largest economic sector. THANK YOU to the farmers who make this possible- you are the backbone of SC and America. In South Carolina, agribusiness contributes $2 billion to the South Carolina economy and creates almost 200,000 jobs. The state of South Carolina has 5 million acres of farmland with nearly 25,000 farms.  Read more »

Let’s talk about the TikTok legislation, which passed the House yesterday with my support. This is a longer post, I’m sorry. We’ll start with some undisputable facts. First, TikTok is owned by a company called ByteDance, which is controlled by the communist Chinese government. Just to refresh everyone’s memory: China, as you ALL should know, is behaving as a VERY hostile foreign… Read more »

Do not fall for this. President Biden is finally (I mean, FINALLY) making a trip to the southern border…but for what? To see the absolute uncontrolled chaos he’s created, 8+ million illegal immigrants later? This is an issue that should infuriate every single American. This is not a party issue, this is about the safety and security of our fellow Americans. On Biden's first day in office… Read more »

EARMARKS ARE EVIL. Here are some highlights of the worst-of-the-worst earmarks in Chuck Schumer’s +1,000 page spending rampage. And keep in mind, we will be borrowing the money to pay for these pet-projects… 1. $1.6 million for “artist living and working space” in New York. No offense to NY, but I think y'all have some more urgent matters to attend to. 2. $1 million to expand a LGBT… Read more »

Happy to be back in SC wrapping up another great week, this week in Union County! We have so many incredible manufacturers all over the district and I am always thrilled to visit and learn about the operations of different companies. I am so proud to represent a district heavily represented by the manufacturing industry. Read more »

Today on Term Limits day, I want to reiterate why my Constitutional amendment to implement term limits is more crucial than ever.  Service in DC ought to be for a season, not a career. I believe you ought to serve for a reasonable period of time and then go home & live under the laws you made. #TermLimitsDay Read more »

This year, the amount of money we’ll pay on INTEREST ALONE to service our national debt will exceed what we’re spending to fund the entire U.S. military. That’s according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Let that sink in for a moment.  What we’ll spend this year to operate the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, Coast Guard, and Space Force… take all those… Read more »

It’s all a calculated game to Democrats. Leaks from the White House indicate Biden is now (finally) considering executive orders to help slow the massive number of illegal migrants flowing across our southern border. This, after lying for weeks claiming he needed additional legislation from Congress to secure the border. (I covered this in a previous post.) That man doesn’t need… Read more »
