  • Happy Father's Day wishes

    I will continue to advocate for policies to enhance the future of this great nation, because our children and grandchildren deserve a future filled with prosperity and success. I wish everyone a safe and happy Father's Day.
  • The path to 270 relies on independents
    To take back the White House and Senate and expand the majority in the House, Republicans must win over independent voters.
  • A father's responsibility
    Dads, there is nothing in life that can substitute for time with you. The foundation of your child doesn’t have the strong underpinnings it needs without you. The result of your neglect will likely be a hurting adult. 
  • Immigration displacing U.S. workers at record pace
    Unquestionably, Biden, his White House team and his donors are pleased with their immigration agenda’s catastrophic consequences on U.S. workers and are eager to maintain the status quo. Not a shred of evidence exists that Biden or any of his cohorts will take steps to reduce the anti-American worker program that puts illegal aliens in line for jobs ahead of U.S. workers.
  • A sobering reflection on the Russia-Ukraine War
    Those Western policymakers who invoke solemn principles and who offer righteous moral posturing when discussing the Russia-Ukraine War should take the time to read historian Margaret MacMillan’s sobering reflections in Foreign Affairs on the similarities between the current war and the First World War. 
  • Four things to know about Democrats’ claims
    The Oversight Committee has already obtained thousands of pages of financial records related to the Biden family and has traced millions of dollars from China and Romania to the Biden family and their associates. Americans are asking: What is the Biden family business? They don’t sell anything, they don’t have lucrative assets generating income, yet they receive millions from around the globe. 
  • The good, the not-so-good, and the ugly
    Since at least March 2013, Hillsboro city officials have been made aware that the city's lodging (motel) tax was improperly levied. Since 2013, Highland County Prosecutor Anneka Collins has told anyone who would listen that this tax should not have been levied.  So has The Highland County Press.
  • Trump’s indictment and the collapse of confidence in our institutions
    The country hungers for leadership that is honest, competent and determined to enforce the law evenly. That means cleaning the Augean stables at the FBI and Justice Department and gaining control over the engorged, biased and largely unaccountable bureaucracies that now rule our daily lives. 
  • IRA green energy tax provisions hurt America and help China
    Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle have long recognized the need to reform our energy tax laws. But rather than work on stakeholder-informed, bipartisan energy tax policies that would support a technology-neutral approach, Democrats pursued a partisan path through their misnamed Inflation Reduction Act.
  • Lawmakers call on Biden to withdraw radical CDC director pick
    This week, Representative Chip Roy (TX-21), and Senator Ted Budd (R-NC) led 26 of their colleagues in the House and Senate to demand that President Biden withdraw his reported selection of the radical, partisan Dr. Mandy Cohen to serve as the next director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
  • Celebrating Flag Day
    As we celebrate Flag Day, let’s never lose sight of what our American Flag represents. It is a symbol of hope, opportunity and freedom for all the world to see.
  • The DeSantis plan to wage war on ‘weaponized’ DOJ
    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been working for months on plans to tear down and rebuild both the Department of Justice and the FBI, consulting with experts and members of Congress to develop a “Day One” strategy to end what conservatives see as the weaponization of the justice system.
  • Sen. Grassley: FBI redacted references to recordings in Biden allegation shared with Congress
    The 1023 document produced to the House Committee redacted reference that the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter Biden allegedly has audio recordings of his conversations with them. Seventeen total recordings. According to the 1023, the foreign national possesses 15 audio recordings of phone calls between him and Hunter Biden. According to the 1023, the foreign national possesses two audio recordings of phone calls between him and then-Vice President Joe Biden. I want everyone to remember, that I have read the unredacted version.
  • Reining in overreach
    Overreach from the Biden Administration is nothing new. On more than one occasion, the nation has scratched its head wondering how the Administration could make such unilateral choices on behalf of the entire federal government without input from Congress. 
  • Future leaders of America
    Every June, hundreds of high school students who just completed their junior year are selected by the American Legion Auxiliary to participate in Boys State and Girls State. I had the opportunity to attend Boys State when I was in high school, and it has had a lasting impact on me. 
  • American sea power in the Asia-Pacific
    War between the United States and China in the western Pacific is a real possibility in the next several years. Although both sides have conducted military exercises and “war games” in the region, predicting the course and outcome of such a war is problematic.
