This week was amazing: a wave of common sense overcame Washington! I'll be the first to say that meaningful action and change have been missing from Washington for far too long, but this week we made major progress to restore sanity to Washington!
This week I introduced the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Reauthorization Act to accelerate investment in our nation’s water infrastructure.
This was a historic week in Washington. We took major steps to put more dollars back in your pocket and increase the size of your paycheck. The status quo has failed. Enough is enough!
We need to put those words into action and give our veterans the proper care that they need and rightfully deserve. And this week, I’m happy to say we made some serious progress: we passed 15 bills to support veterans.
Sadly, as a veteran myself, I’ve seen firsthand how often the government fails our veterans. We can and must do better. This week, in honor of Veteran’s Day, the House passed 15 bills that will honor our veterans while improving care for them and their families.
As Vice Chairman of the Water Resources and Environment subcommittee, I'll keep this pressure on until Congress authorizes the resources we need to stop the discharges, send the water south and clean up the water quality.
I'm dedicated to fighting terror, securing our border, stopping Iran's reign of terror, punishing North Korea and destroying Hezbollah. This week we passed legislation to do all that and more.
Every week when I fly up to Washington, my goal is to make our community safer, healthier and stronger. You don't always hear about our work on the news, but that's exactly why I put out this update every week. Take a look.
Surviving families confront many challenges, often made worse by policies that fail to compassionately honor the memory of their sacrifice. That's why this week I helped introduce the Gold Star Family Support and Installation Act.
I'm focused on bringing radical reform to our broken and rigged tax code. This would be the first serious change to simplify our code and lower middle-class taxes since the Reagan administration.
