Opposition to the World Health Organization

| Posted in Blog

More from my press conference with Rep. Bob Good and others from yesterday:  It is clear that the World Health Organization is pursuing various techniques to take down American sovereignty and freedoms. Perhaps the most insidious of those techniques is their stealthy effort to undermine our form of government by fundamentally transforming international organizations into instruments…

Constitution Day

| Posted in Blog

Happy Constitution Day!  On this day 237 years ago, history was made. On September 17, 1787, 39 delegates to Constitutional Convention signed the greatest political document ever written, the United States Constitution.  I love this quote from the Father of the Constitution, James Madison. As we continue to move our country forward, my hope is that America may continue to see…

Update on the SAVE Act

| Posted in Blog

Update on the SAVE Act + the Continuing Resolution:  Stopping illegal immigrants from voting in our elections is still my top priority—that’s why House Republicans should absolutely use our leverage in the September spending fight to protect our elections! The good news is Congress already passed the SAVE Act on a bipartisan basis back in July. The bill simply requires states to…

Fair and Secure Elections

| Posted in Blog

I know that many of you have asked me how to ensure our state continues to set the standard for fair and secure elections, and I have taken time to think about this issue at great lengths.  While only U.S. citizens can legally vote in federal elections, it’s nearly impossible to enforce since the National Voter Registration Act effectively prohibits states from asking for…

South Carolina Prayer Breakfast

| Posted in Blog

I was honored to speak at Senator Tim Scott's 14th Annual South Carolina Prayer Breakfast earlier this week. The theme was: "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life" Proverbs 13:12. I enjoyed reflecting on this verse with my colleagues. I thank God every day for the blessings He has granted us.

Biden is Out

| Posted in Blog

🚨 BIDEN IS OUT 🚨 After every state in the nation has held its primary election… After Democrat voters have already chosen who they want on their ballot in November… After all this, Biden drops out of the race just days before the Democratic convention. Is anyone really surprised? A few random thoughts: First, this is proof that we were lied to for YEARS by the White House and…

Terrible Day for America

| Posted in Blog

Saturday was a terrible day for America. The assassination attempt of President Trump was a horrific tragedy of political violence. We can see in videos and photographs that our former President was millimeters away from extremely grave injuries in which we would be having very different conversations right now. I thank God that President Trump survived this attempt on his life with only…
