WEEKLY UPDATE June 23rd, 2023

Dear Kansas friends, Thank you for your interest in receiving my newsletter. Please feel free to share this with your friends and family.

Oversight Investigation of Proposed EPA Rules

The EPA's new power plant emissions restrictions are just another example of this President and his army of unelected bureaucrats forcing burdensome and costly regulations on domestic energy producers. I'm leading an investigation to demand answers from the Biden administration and stand up for American energy. Read more HERE

Delivering for America's Servicemembers

America's servicemembers and their families sacrifice so much in service to our country. It's vital that we ensure they have the resources and support they deserve.  During a House Appropriations markup this week, I proudly voted for a 5.2% pay raise for our troops—the highest in over two decades.

Accountability for the DOJ

Hunter would not have gotten this sweetheart plea deal if his last name wasn't Biden. Americans are sick and tired of this White House weaponizing the federal government for their own gain. It's time to get politics out of the DOJ and end this two-tiered system of justice. Read more HERE

Standing Up for our Veterans

This week the House passed the Veteran Entrepreneurship Training Act! I'm proud to support this bipartisan legislation to codify the Boots to Business Program and ensure our nation's heroes have to resources they need to grow successful businesses in our communities.

As a member of the Appropriations Committee, I proudly voted to fully fund veterans' benefits, including veterans' health care, the PACT Act, and other crucial VA programs.  I will never stop fighting to ensure America's heroes get the care and benefits they deserve from the federal government. Read more HERE

Fighting for Your Second Amendment Rights

I voted to overturn President Biden's unconstitutional rule that would criminalize the use of pistol-stabilizing braces— a tool many disabled veterans rely on. I will always fight to protect and defend the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding gun owners across our state. Read more HERE.

Securing the Border

Another 200,000+ illegal immigrants crossed our southern border in May. As this crisis continues to worsen, the House Appropriations Committee took action yesterday to provide funding to help finish the wall, hire 22,000 Border Patrol agents, and restore border security technology.

Holding the Biden Family Accountable

Americans deserve answers and the Oversight Committee will continue to use every tool in the toolbox to hold the Biden family accountable and uncover the truth. Read HERE

Censuring Congressman Schiff

For years, Congressman Adam Schiff used his power as Chairman of the Intel Committee to intentionally lie to the American people about the fake Russia collusion hoax. This week I voted to censure Rep. Schiff and refer him to the Ethics Committee for this abuse of power.
