Under Pres. Biden's economic policies, American families are falling behind. I'm committed to stopping inflationary spending, supporting policies that reduce energy prices, and extending middle class tax cuts and child tax credits previously approved by Congress.

The percentage of Americans naming inflation or the high cost of living as the most important financial problem facing their family has reached a new high.

The Hill and Valley Forum is a bipartisan discussion between lawmakers and innovators. Yesterday, I participated in a panel hosted by @zebulgar from @vardaspace , where I spoke about my efforts to leverage investments that will more rapidly deliver innovations to our warfighters.

I just joined a bipartisan majority of the House of Representatives in passing the Antisemitism Awareness Act on the first day of Jewish American Heritage Month. This bill reinforces Civil Rights Act protections for Jewish students who are subjected to antisemitism.

Fentanyl killed more than 100,000 Americans last year. That’s why as Defense Appropriations Chairman I increased the budget for the Nat'l Guard’s Counter Drug Program from $100 million to $300 million. Yesterday, I asked them how they’ll use the funding to address the crisis.

Congress must use all tools available to ensure our federal laws protecting the rights of Jewish students are being adhered to by college administrators. Your right to protest ends when it threatens violence or denies others with the ability to receive an education.

Antisemitism is a virus that the Biden administration and woke university presidents are permitting to spread. Today my colleagues joined me in announcing a House-wide effort to crack down on antisemitism on college campuses. We will use all the tools available to us to end it.

The border crisis goes beyond our land borders. The number of migrants caught trying to illegally enter the US in the maritime domain has increased 334% since FY2020. I just voted (HR 529) to double the current distance CBP can enforce US laws from 12 to 24 miles off our coast.

Antisemitism of any kind cannot be tolerated on our college campuses. University leaders must ensure students of all religions can safely attend classes.

I've watched the videos of the atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists on October 7th. The terrorists responsible for the murder, rape, mutilation and kidnaping of civilians must be brought to justice. The U.S. stands firmly with Israel in its quest to protect its people. 🇺🇸🇮🇱

Hamas invaded Israel 6 months ago, proudly filming themselves brutally murdering, raping, and mutilating hundreds of Israelis. Over the last 6 months, many have already begun denying these atrocities. @SSLIsrael let people see the truth for themselves. 🎥: Menachem Kashanian

The reason California families and job creators face the highest prices and taxes in the nation is because of radical policies and mandates enacted by Democrats.

An upcoming California ban on the sale of gas-powered cars could cost taxpayers as much as $20 billion, according to research from the University of California, Berkeley.

President Biden’s inflationary policies are costing California families an extra $1,222 every month for the same goods and services they purchased before he was sworn into office. #Bidenomics

If even a small percentage of our university students are voicing support for Hamas terrorists and cheering the death, rape and torture of Israelis, then it’s time to ask what on Earth are our academic institutions teaching our students and where does this moral rot come from?…
