It was a busy week, but I’m back to keep you in the loop on how I am fighting for our conservative values.
As you may be aware, I am working to expose the unjust prosecution of Trooper Ryan Londregan by radical-Left Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty. Trooper Londregan is currently facing charges for a July 2023 incident in which he intervened to save his partner's life. Despite evidence and expert testimony indicating that Trooper Londregan followed his training, he is facing politically motivated charges brought by a partisan county attorney. This bogus prosecution is part of the Left's inquisition against law enforcement officers to appease their radical base. I will not tolerate political hacks who weaponize the law to scapegoat our heroes. That is why I have stepped up my efforts by formally requesting that the House Judiciary Committee investigate this misconduct. We must ensure justice is served and support our law enforcement officers, who are willing to risk their lives to keep us safe.
Senate Democrats' hypocrisy is infuriating. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced plans to quickly dismiss the impeachment articles against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Worst of all, he doubled down on his decision via X, claiming that impeachment should only be reserved for 'high crimes and misdemeanors' rather than resolving 'policy disagreements.' When I last checked, Democrats had no problem weaponizing impeachment against President Trump. On two separate occasions, they rushed a sham trial, although no crime was committed. It was solely motivated by a baseless political vendetta against President Trump.
This week, I introduced the Stop Executive Overreach on Trade Agreements Act (H.R. 7983), which will ensure that critical minerals required for manufacturing and development are sourced domestically or from our existing Free Trade Agreement partners. This legislation prohibits the Biden administration from bypassing Congress in negotiating agreements that do not reduce our dependence on China for critical minerals. By incentivizing mineral mining and processing in the United States, we can save taxpayers money while also providing good jobs and promoting American-made products. This bill is an important step toward checking executive power and securing our supply chains. I look forward to seeing it brought to the House floor for a vote.
As always, please contact my office if there is anything we can help with. Thank you for your continued support!
