Oklahoma,

 

While the majority of my week was spent in Washington meeting with many of you, I also led a congressional delegation trip in an effort to secure the release of detained Americans from Turks and Caicos. Read more about our efforts below. If this email was forwarded to you, you can subscribe to my weekly enewsletter here.

On Wednesday, I visited with students from E-School Charter Academy located out of Guthrie, Oklahoma. I'm thrilled these families have the opportunity for their children to thrive in an online classroom setting that meets their needs. The students asked thoughtful questions, and we had a great conversation about doing well in school and balancing family and work life.

I had a great meeting with Oklahoma members of the American Quarter Horse Association. The horse industry contributed $177 billion to the economy and created 2.2 million jobs just last year. We spoke about promoting public interest in agriculture and ranching through horse training and programming. We also discussed youth equestrian education. Thank you for stopping by!

On Monday, I returned from leading a congressional delegation to Turks and Caicos (TCI) where we met with TCI government officials to discuss the five Americans being detained on the islands, including Oklahoman Ryan Watson. 

 

We went in respectful of their sovereignty, and with an open mind looking to find common ground. Unfortunately, despite our willingness to work with Turks and Caicos officials to get our constituents home, we were not able to find a path forward. At this point, well-intentioned American citizens are facing a dozen years in prison all for unknowingly having one or two bullets in their luggage. The unintended consequences of TCI’s law have been at the expense of well-intentioned American tourists, including a grandmother, who had no intention of breaking the law. We will stay at the table through this process until the issue is resolved.

This week, I joined Good Morning America to discuss our negotiations with TCI officials in further detail. Check it out here

The Biden administration wants Americans to think their failed economic policies are working, but Oklahomans know better. The data speaks for itself. Under President Trump, household net worth skyrocketed 16 percent, compared to an abysmal 0.07 percent during Joe Biden’s term. Every family is working more for less under the Biden administration.
