In addition to the rise in anti-law enforcement rhetoric in recent years, a staggering 378 officers were shot in the line of duty in 2023 alone. 

Rep. Ashley Hinson (IA-02) introduced the bipartisan, bicameral Improving Law Enforcement Officer Safety and Wellness Through Data Act, which “will ensure adequate data collection to address the rise in anti-police attacks, protect law enforcement in the line of duty, and support the mental health of police officers.”

Republican Leslie Lewallen (WA-03) highlighted a frightening story of an illegal migrant caught in Texas near the Mexico border who claimed to be a member of the terror network Hezbollah, and was bound for New York and intended to make a bomb.

Extreme policies from liberals in Oregon, coupled with weak border security, have led to a drug crisis that is out of control. 

Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (OR-05) highlighted how Portland police have already seized over 230,000 fentanyl pills and 22 pounds of powdered fentanyl – more than all of 2023 – as well as her commitment to combatting the crisis.

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA), along with 11 of her Republican colleagues on the Senate Armed Services Committee, shared a letter they sent to President Biden with their concerns over the administration’s operation to build a pier in Gaza.

In it they write, "While we acknowledge that this decision was taken with the consent of the Israeli government, we are concerned that the mission entails a significant risk to US personnel. We are also concerned that this approach fails to address the main causes of the humanitarian crisis.”
