Nigeria has become the deadliest place on earth to be a Christian - nearly 17,000 have been killed since 2019. Nigeria is a nation of tremendous potential, but that potential is being choked by the violent persecution of its Christian population. Nigeria must change course now.

Today, I voted to do what Joe Biden and Democrats could’ve and should’ve done four years ago: release the Epstein files. This vote reflects my commitment to truth and transparency. The American people deserve both from their leaders. Liz and I are praying for every victim and

This is a massive win for anyone designing, building, selling, or buying a car. Michigan is the auto capital of the world, and this ensures that we continue to lead the way. I was proud to vote in favor of this. This is what putting American manufacturing first looks like.
New car loan interest deduction created under @POTUS' tax cut: — Lets carbuyers write off up to $10k/year in interest paid on qualifying auto loans — Starts with purchases made in 2025 and runs through 2028 — You won't have to itemize to claim the deduction

TLDR: Republicans ended the shutdown. Nobody wins when troops go unpaid and Americans suffer. It was 100% avoidable. I voted with Republicans to keep government open from Day 1. Democrats voted 14 times to keep it shut, while the media lied for them. My team and I worked unpaid

Nobody wins in a government shutdown. Troops went unpaid, SNAP funding ran out, our skies were unsafe, and the American people suffered. But the truth remains that this was completely avoidable. I am so proud to serve the people of Michigan, but I’m so disappointed in the

4 years of Joe Biden brought rising costs, vanishing opportunities, and painful inflation. In just ten months, President @realDonaldTrump is putting money back in your pocket, lowering costs, and creating opportunities for a brighter future. Thanks @AFPMichigan for hosting a

50 years ago today, the Edmund Fitzgerald was lost on Lake Superior - one of the darkest nights in Great Lakes history. I’m proud to co-lead a resolution honoring the 29 crew members who never made it home, ensuring their legacy lives on. Michigan will never forget.

Democrats have voted 14 times to keep the government shutdown. The result? Families in need without food assistance, troops unpaid, flights cancelled, and missed paychecks for federal workers. This shutdown is unnecessarily hurting the American people. Michigan: call your

In Sept, Republicans and I voted to keep the government open. Since then, Senate Democrats have voted 14 times to continue the shutdown they started. As a result the FAA’s preparing to slow air travel. Michigan families and travelers will be the ones paying the price. I

Last year, as Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Africa Subcommittee, I demanded answers and actions from the Biden Admin. While Biden chose silence and to not designate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern, President Trump did what Biden failed to.

Thank you, President Trump, for standing up for persecuted Christians in Nigeria and around the world. Thousands of believers are being murdered for their faith. America must not turn a blind eye. We stand with our brothers and sisters in Christ, and I’m grateful for a
