    Zika is already here in Ohio, with 12 Ohioans having been diagnosed with it. Thus far, it looks like all of the Americans who have become infected did so either by traveling somewhere else and being bitten by a mosquito, or by sexual contact with someone who had Zika.

  • White House media manipulation
    There is a widespread view around here that our chief job is "to pass legislation." That is incorrect. Our main job – indeed the oath that we took – is to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution – which is about limited government and about the separation of powers. Our job is to ensure that the nation is well-governed, and that the public can have confidence that it is well-governed.

  • We don’t need a national zoning board
    A study by the Reason Foundation demonstrated that while the Community Development Block Grant program has been a boon for special interests and channeling taxpayer dollars to politically connected groups, it has been entirely unsuccessful in actually reducing poverty or housing segregation. The so-called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule would only continue the Community Development Block Grant program’s well-established track record of failure.

  • Feeling the effect of the Obama economy
    If we continue on the path we’re on right now, we might be the first generation of Americans to leave the next generation worse off, but we don’t have to be. We can reverse the course the president has set during his administration and put in place the kind of policies that will grow our economy and lift the burdens on American families.
