Dear John, 

Last week, the House passed my bill to hold Iran accountable for its abhorrent attack on Israel, I questioned the President of Columbia University about antisemitism on her campus, and I shared a message about this Administration's misguided tax policies as millions of Americans filed their taxes on Tax Day.   

Get the details about all of this and more below, and make sure to follow my FacebookInstagram, and X to get these updates in real-time.


PASSED: Permanent Iran Sanctions

WATCH: Rep. Steel Urges Adoption of Her Bill to Make Iran Sanctions Permanent

On Wednesday, the House of Representatives passed my bill, the Solidify Iran Sanctions Act (SISA), in response to Iran’s attack against Israel last week. The bipartisan, bicameral legislation preventing aggression-deterring sanctions against Iran from expiring in 2026 and it represents a strong Congressional response to the Iranian threat, in contrast with the Biden Administration’s handing over of billions of dollars to the regime through sanctions waivers.

The Iranian Regime poses one of the greatest threats to peace throughout the Middle East and the world. There should be no sunset date to stopping funding for Iran-backed terrorism throughout the world. The Solidify Iran Sanctions Act does what it says – solidifies those sanctions – making them permanent. The people of Israel, American soldiers, and innocent people throughout the Middle East should not live in fear of the Iranian Regime and their terror.

The CCP is dumping money into our campuses to wage influence campaigns and get access to sensitive research. My bill with Education and Workforce Committee Chairwoman, Virginia Foxx (R-NC), the DETERRENT Act, passed the House in December. I joined Fox Business to discuss how the bill will bring needed transparency and accountability to foreign funding of our universities.

WATCH: Rep. Steel Denounces Pres. Biden's War on American Taxpayers

This Tax Day, American taxpayers got one of the worst deals they’ve ever gotten.

I came to congress to ensure low taxes and responsible government that works for Americans.

I urge the Administration to join me in that work and end its war on American taxpayers.

Fox News: California's green agenda is targeting every mode of transportation, despite wide opposition

"CARB seems hell-bent on further crippling our economy and burdening our workers," Steel told Fox News Digital. "Whether it’s an absurd mandate that 100% of new car sales be zero-emission vehicles by 2035, or a downright dangerous requirement that towing vessels install faulty diesel particulate filters, CARB has repeatedly set forth regulations that defy logic and harm people."
