Fighting For What’s Right 💪
<[link removed]>
Let’s just call this the hill I’m willing to die on.
I don’t care who is in charge; I have never voted to raise the debt limit and
likely never will. Why? Because America is nearly$32 trillion
<[link removed]>
in debt right now. That’s right, 32,000,000,000,000…a figure with a whopping
12 zeros.
Knowing this, I voted against the debt ceiling legislation that narrowly
passed in the House
<[link removed]>
this week. Sure, I was one of just four Republicans who stood up for what’s
right—but that’s fine with me.
As East Tennessee’s elected representative, I aim to stay true to the shared
values that got me here in the first place. I understand that those values
aren't just fancy talk—they're the bedrock of our community. That's why I'm
committed to standing up for what's right and fighting for the folks who put
their faith in me.
I’ve said it hundreds of times, and I’ll say it hundreds more—this reckless
spending and never-ending taxation has got to stop. If we don't put an end to
it, our children’s children’s children will be living with the consequences of
ourfoolish spending sprees
<[link removed]>
.
But it’s not only the boldfaced spending I’m worried about.
It also grinds my gears that there’s a severe lack of transparency
<[link removed]>
when it comes to how our tax dollars are being spent in Washington. I mean,
this is your money we're talking about! You work hard for it, and you deserve
to know where it's going. But let me tell you, I'm not seeing nearly enough
accountability from those in charge. That’s why we must hold our elected
officials' feet to the fire and demand better.
Today, tomorrow, and always, you can count on me to stay true to the promises
I made to each and every one of you. It often feels like my back’s against the
wall, but I’ll keep fighting for fiscal responsibility until the very end.
Smoky Mountains Magic ✨

It’s hard to believe our treasured Great Smoky Mountains National Park could
get any better, but this spectacle may seal the deal.
The synchronous firefly viewing event
<[link removed]>
is right around the corner, and forjust two weeks
<[link removed]>, these fireflies will put
on a beautiful display. In an effort to find their perfect mate, these insects
light up the night in harmony, which makes for a truly dazzling experience.
Why do they all shine at once? According to the National Park Service, it’s so
females know they’re responding to one of their kind. That’s because there are
19 different species of fireflies living in Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Tennessee is blessed with some of the most breathtaking outdoor sights in the
country, and I couldn’t be more proud to call this place home.
