Thank you for reading my newsletter. Here's a summary of last week:

Message from Congressman Scott Fitzgerald

Good morning! Let me update you on a few of the most important happenings from last week.

The House was in session for a busy week. In the Financial Services Committee, we held a hearing to conduct oversight of the Department of the Treasury and inquire about their practices to manage our debt. In the Judiciary Committee, we met to continue our work on empowering the United States to better compete against China and protect our intellectual property.

After we finished voting for the week and wrapped up our work in committee, I was able to get back to the district to attend Breakfast on the Farm in West Bend. I had a wonderful time meeting with so many fantastic folks and hearing about their top concerns facing the country and Wisconsin right now.

As always, it's a privilege to be trusted to represent you in Washington. We have very important work ahead and I am eager to continue to fight on your behalf. Thank you for sending me.

- Scott
