He chose... poorly.

| Posted in Blog

Earlier this morning, I led a congressional letter to the CEO of Disney for his antagonistic comments against a Florida law designed to protect children. That state bill would prohibit kindergartners and 1st - 3rd graders from being indoctrinated with woke theories on gender and sexual orientation. We’re talking about children here.  And we’re talking about the left’s weird,…

Early Migration Alert Program Act

| Posted in Blog

I've seen it happen personally on various airline flights over the last year - where illegal immigrants are being relocated across the United States. Officials are using planes, trains, busses, Ubers… any mode of transportation they can find to alleviate the massive overload of illegal immigrants at the border.   There's nowhere to put these individuals, and this…

This is more aggravating than a diagonal speed bump. Check this out: From multiple news outlets this morning, we’re learning that the Biden Administration is quietly trying to figure out how to increase oil imports from Canada. Friends, this is the President who ended development of the Keystone XL pipeline on DAY ONE of his administration.  In fact, he literally campaigned on…

REPLAY: Joint Tele-Town Hall w/ Rep. Jeff Duncan and Rep. William Timmons

| Posted in Blog

A very special thanks to Congressman Jeff Duncan and Rep. William Timmons! The three of us hosted an incredible joint tele-town hall on April 5th, with tens of thousands of constituents joining us on the phone from back home in South Carolina. There were many great questions about inflation, illegal immigration, Ukraine, and other issues facing our country. You can catch a full replay…

$5,200 More This Year

Tags: Inflation

$5,200 this year, or $433 per month. That’s how much MORE the average family will spend just to maintain the same standard of living as last year, according to new research from Bloomberg Economics. If your paycheck hasn’t kept pace with this inflation – and chances are it hasn’t – then guess what? You’re either saving less, dealing with a lower standard of living, and/or going into…

Huge Win for First Responders

| Posted in Blog

FIRST RESPONDERS: we had a huge win in the House of Representatives earlier this week. Almost a year ago, I co-sponsored a bill in the House known as the “Putting First Responders First Act.” The purpose of that bill was to help police, fire and EMS personnel who are injured in the line of duty. Under existing law, if a first responder is injured on the job and is unable to work,…

Her Judicial Record

| Posted in Blog

I don’t understand the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the U.S. Supreme Court. I really don’t. In all of our nation, there is no higher court. Its rulings affect virtually every other court, and there are no avenues of appeal beyond it. This means how the Supreme Court interprets our Constitution and matters of law is vitally important. It also means the justices serving on the…

Not a Serious Proposal

| Posted in Blog

It’s 30% good and 70% garbage. That’s how to describe President Biden’s $5.8 trillion budget proposal released yesterday.   Let’s start with the good. To his credit, Biden proposed a modest increase in military and national security spending. (I’d argue it’s not enough, but any efforts to increase military spending tend to upset his liberal base, so he’s in a bind here.)…

Vietnam Veterans Day

Today is Vietnam Veterans Day, a very special day where we honor and pay tribute to all who served in the Vietnam War. Over 2.7 million Americans fought for our nation in the Vietnam War, according to the Veterans Administration. Many were injured, some gravely.  And many others would never return home alive. I say this often, but it cannot be said enough: This nation owes our…
