Monday, Rep Jen Kiggans (VA-02) highlighted a serious national security implication of the crisis at the border. This fiscal year, more individuals on the terror watch list illegally crossed the border than ever before.
She also called on the Senate to pass H.R. 2, which the House passed in May, to help stop the flow of illegal immigrants into our country. |
Tuesday, Rep. Ashley Hinson (IA-02) continued her push to expand childcare for the millions of Americans who do not work 9-to-5 jobs. She joined a female Democratic colleague in introducing the "After Hours Child Care Act" and the pair recently held a town hall to discuss. |
"We’ve heard a lot about child care challenges from healthcare providers, from law enforcement, from other people who are not working traditional 9-to-5 jobs. We need to find options, because we want these families to be able to stay in the workforce. The bipartisan After Hours Child Care bill opens up existing grant dollars for additional purposes so it can be used for child care during non-traditional work hours." - Rep. Ashley Hinson (IA-02) |
