  • Rep. Higgins issues statement on evidence involving Biden family

    “As an investigator, I recognize that bank records are amongst the most irrefutable form of evidence. Every American knows that bank documents are unbiased. They’re just accounts and numbers and dates and times. They’re not opinions, they’re not Republican bank documents or Democrat bank documents." – Rep. Higgins
  • It’s time to take politics out of ESG and retirement savings
    Increased politicization of “environmental, social and governance” (ESG) factors in investment has resulted in one side claiming it only promotes social and political objectives, and the other side claiming that ESG is always relevant to making sound investment decisions. 
  • The Biden economy and how it could be fixed
    The hard economic times we are experiencing are especially striking as they come on the heels of the Trump boom, which opened our eyes again to American economic potential when we have low taxes, reduced regulation and a bountiful supply of domestic energy. Everybody, particularly minority and low-wage earners, reaped the benefits in the Trump years.
  • ESG just window dressing for liberal activism, far-left ideology
    Americans should be free to invest their own money in any legal investment strategy they choose. This freedom does not exist when asset managers use their clients’ funds to push ESG instead of client returns. And let’s not kid ourselves. ESG is just window dressing for liberal activism and radical far-left ideology.

    Ladies and gentlemen, more than 162 years ago, the Rev. Joseph McDowell Mathews, a pioneer of education in Highland County in the 1800s, announced he was resigning as president of the Hillsborough Female College in December of 1860. 
  • Veterans' benefits not on the chopping block
    House Republicans have made it very clear that veterans’ benefits, defense spending, Medicare and Social Security are not on the chopping block when it comes to debt ceiling negotiations. We’ve always prioritized veterans in our budgets to ensure that the men and women who have served our country have access to the care and benefits they deserve.
  • Countering coercion
    As a lead sponsor of the Countering Economic Coercion Act of 2023, I am pleased that a portion of the jurisdiction for this legislation rests with the House Rules Committee, and this week I will chair the first committee hearing on the provision.
  • Wind and solar aren’t nearly enough
    It turns out that Vladimir Putin’s war has brought the sleepwalking West the great energy reality check that it so desperately needed – and that includes even the most “climate ambitious administration in U.S. history.” 
  • A sermon on John 14:15-21
    When you love someone, you do what pleases them. The five most important words in a successful marriage is "I will do the dishes." 
  • Standing up for Ohio manufacturers against unfair trade
    I have fought my whole career for fair trade that puts American workers first, and stood up to presidents of both parties on behalf of Ohioans. One of my proudest votes was against NAFTA.
  • Spherical joy
    Our hearts are not so much warmed by the small spherical glass orbs, as they are warmed by the people that these small orbs share with us, and of course, I smiled.
  • No. 1 killer over the last 170 years
    There have been between 160 to 200 million people killed, i.e., they did not die of natural causes but at the hand of their fellow humans, since about 1860. It stands to reason if we could find one root cause of this tragedy, we would ban it from the face of the earth. Yet, I am sure we won’t. Why? The root cause is electricity.  
  • The time is now for missile defense
    China, Russia, North Korea and Iran continue to invest in technologies to expand their capabilities to hit the United States with nuclear weapons. All four countries have also escalated their threatening rhetoric, indicating their willingness to use nuclear weapons in a military conflict.
  • The 5.6-percent 'loss of income' narrative as foolish as the COVID-19 lockdowns
    If analysts had a clue about the future income of school-aged youth in 2020 and beyond, they most certainly wouldn’t be analysts. Instead, they’d be earning billions as investors based on an ability to see years and decades into the future.
  • Clinton, Bush, Obama align with open borders groups
    The latest chapter in the ongoing open border crisis involves four former first families associated with groups whose mission is to transport migrants from their home countries to the United States. Immigration lawyers call this “aiding and abetting,” a federal crime.
