The Acquittal of President Trump

| Posted in Blog

Just moments ago, President Trump was acquitted and vindicated in the Senate. The partisan impeachment charade is over (for now at least). Unfortunately, it cannot be forgotten. As we turn the page on what’s been a very dark & unnecessary chapter in American politics, it’s time to double-down on the policies and priorities that have brought this nation its countless blessings in…

Unlike Any Other State of the Union Address

| Posted in Blog

Two totally different worlds – two completely different mindsets – were on full display last night. It was unlike any other State of the Union address I’ve seen, either in person or on TV. There were a couple of themes to the President’s address. First, he took a well-deserved victory lap on numerous fronts: from the economy & trade to our military & war on terror. We must always…

America First or Back to Business as Usual?

| Posted in Opinion Pieces

This op-ed by Rep. Norman was originally published in The Sumter Item on January 31st, 2020. When this president was sworn in, pundits scratched their heads at his promise to put America first. Since taking office, our president has delivered on his promise to rebalance the scales of trade fairness. On Oct. 7 last year, he signed free trade agreements with Japan. Months later on Jan.…

Rep. Norman Issues Statement on H.R. 943 Vote

| Posted in Press Releases

On Tuesday, U.S. Congressman Ralph Norman (SC-5) issued the following statement regarding his No vote on H.R. 943, the Never Again Education Act. “Let there be no doubt about my record on fighting antisemitism: I am a member of three separate caucuses opposing anti-Semite and a cosponsor of many more bills and letters that combat BDS, support the state of Israel, and raise awareness of…

Meet Baby Warren

| Posted in Blog

This is not something I’ve spoken about in public until recently. It’s deeply personal, and (for what felt like an eternity) we just had no idea how things would turn out. I’m talking about my youngest grandchild, Warren, who weighed only 1 lb. 15 oz. when he was born back in September. He was three months premature. Much of September 25th is now a blur, but I remember receiving a…

How Leverage Works

| Posted in Blog

Lost in much of the news coverage last week was that the U.S. signed Phase One of a new trade deal with China. More on that in a moment. First let’s remember we've had major problems with that country, ranging from unfair trade practices to rampant intellectual property theft. It’s critical we recognize that China would have been nowhere near the negotiating table were it not for…

Excellent News About Religious Liberties in Our Nation’s Schools

| Posted in Blog

This (Sunday) morning seemed like a good time for this particular update. I have some excellent news about efforts to protect religious liberties in our nation’s schools. Last week, President Trump issued an executive order that provides public schools with guidance on prayer and other forms of religious expression. Among other things, this order explicitly states that students may pray…

True Colors

Gold pens brought in on silver platters. You can't make this stuff up. These were the ceremonial pens that Nancy Pelosi used yesterday to sign the House's resolution transmitting articles of impeachment over to the Senate. In a perverse form of celebration, these pens were later handed out as souvenirs to those who have been working tirelessly for impeachment since the moment President…

An Ongoing Effort to Damage President Trump

| Posted in Blog

The left’s contradictions on impeachment would be humorous if they weren’t so cynical. Remember their rush in the House of Representatives to impeach President Trump? We were all told that this hearsay and speculation was an “urgent concern” and that there was “no time to waste.” So what happened after the fastest impeachment inquiry in U.S. history and a vote entirely along party…
