He became the face of the Civil Rights movement and to this day, his work continues to inspire the nation. Because of his legacy, this day is recognized as one of two designated National Day of Service holidays during the year. In honor of Martin Luther King Jr, I… Read more »

FUN FACTS around the Capitol: (1) You may notice quite a few miniature doors while walking through the Capitol. Rather than a Willy Wonka style secret entrance to a room of flavored wallpaper, behind the doors are just enough room for a faucet and a pail. Odd, right? Well, the Capitol suffered from three fires (1814, 1825, and 1851) and this was the most efficient way to prevent fires… Read more »

Here’s a quick recap of two important pieces of news this week: FIRST, the Supreme Court slapped down Biden’s vaccine mandate yesterday. The President was trying to implement this through OSHA (the Occupational Safety & Health Administration), which would have affected more than 80 million American workers and placed massive compliance burdens on countless businesses. The Court was… Read more »

Great news just minutes ago from the Supreme Court, which BLOCKED Biden’s unconstitutional vaccine mandate for large employers. This affects around 80 million Americans who work for larger companies. President Biden was trying to use OSHA (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration) to enact this mandate. Fortunately, the Supreme Court halted that misguided order just moments… Read more »

It's like the President's own administration said, "Biden's going to need political cover if he's going to order federal law enforcement to crack down on parents. So you guys should write a letter to the President, telling him that's what you need." Remember the outrageous letter that the National School Boards Association (NSBA) sent to President Biden recently? It was concerning… Read more »

Every month in recent memory has brought more bad news on this front. This latest report represents the highest increase in the last 40 years. Lots of factors are in play here, not the least of which is the labor shortage, Covid, consumer demand,… Read more »

Those who have been completely silent on New York allowing 800,000 illegal immigrants to vote in local elections have NO standing to call for so-called “voting rights” legislation in Congress. Democrats, I’m looking squarely at you. President Biden is in Georgia right now trying to drum up support for this effort. He, along with liberals in Congress, want to change the rules in the… Read more »

Get ready to show your vaccine passport almost everywhere if you want to visit our nation’s capital.  The D.C. mayor has issued an edict requiring anyone 12 and older to show proof of vaccinations to enter public establishments.  It’s nuts. Think about the hundreds of thousands of school children visiting D.C. – how’s that going to work? And the burdens placed on businesses,… Read more »

On Monday, Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC-5) and Ranking Member Rep. James Comer (R-KY-1) of the Committee on Oversight and Reform lead a letter to Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser concerning her mandate requiring proof of vaccination to enter various public buildings within the District of Columbia. “We write to express our concern about the… Read more »

BIG win in court yesterday concerning an issue I told you all about last month, and something I filed legislation to address. Remember how the Food & Drug Administration wanted 55 YEARS to slow-walk its release of documents concerning the Pfizer vaccine? A group of medical and public health professionals wants to examine that data, and literally had to sue the FDA for copies of… Read more »
