‌ ‌ WEEKLY UPDATE February 20th, 2024 Dear Kansas friends, Thank you for your interest in receiving my newsletter. Please feel free to share this with your friends and family. Praying for Kansas City I'm praying for the victims of this horrific act of violence, and it's my hope that the individuals responsible are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and brought to justice. There is absolutely no place in our society for this kind of evil hatred.  I'm grateful for the KCPD officers and first responders who put their lives on the line to protect their fellow Americans.

Standing for a Strong Southern Border The Biden administration has released more than 3.3 million illegal immigrants into the United States – more than the entire population of Kansas. President Biden, with the stroke of a pen, could end catch and release TODAY. But we all know he won't. Watch HERE Honoring Father Emil Kapaun Father Emil Kapaun dedicated his life to serving God and his Country. More than 70 years after his death, his heroic legacy of service continues to inspire Kansans across our state. I'm proud to support the effort to honor him in the Kansas State Capitol. UNWRA Ties to Hamas It's now being reported that at least 12 UNRWA employees willingly participated in the murder, rape, and kidnapping of innocent Israelis on October 7th. President Biden restored funding to UNRWA in 2021 despite mounting evidence of the organization's ties to Hamas. We want to know why, read more HERE PASSED: The Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2024 President Biden's weak energy agenda is a win for Russia and China. I proudly voted for this legislation to put a stop to the Biden Administration’s ban on LNG exports and support energy production here in America. Impeachment of Sec. Mayorkas Secretary Mayorkas signed his own pink slip when he refused to enforce federal immigration laws and failed in his Constitutional duty to protect our homeland from the worsening invasion at our southern border. It’s past time for new leadership at the Department of Homeland Security. I voted to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas tonight because Americans deserve real accountability in Washington. Standing up to Communist China If you watched the Super Bowl on Sunday, you probably saw a bunch of ads for a company called Temu. Temu is a China-controlled tech company that's currently being sued for stealing Americans' data and sending it back to President Xi and the CCP.  Bottom Line: Temu is a threat to our economic and national security. Happy Presidents' Day Yesterday we celebrated George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and all the great Americans who served our nation as Commander-in-Chief. Their unwavering dedication to freedom and democracy helped build and shape the greatest country in the world. Happy Presidents’ Day!
