John,



It’s been a busy week standing up for our rural communities and veterans, but
I wanted to take a moment to share an update on the important work we’re doing
to advance conservative values.



On Tuesday, I had the pleasure of welcoming some of my fellow House delegation
members, including Reps. Brad Finstad and Pete Stauber, at a Farmfest Forum in
the southern portion of the district. Our panel, “Developing a Reliable Ag
Safety Net,” featured a thoughtful discussion on crop insurance and the Title I
provisions included in the recently passed reconciliation bill. We also
addressed the Farm Bill and acknowledged that rural America may need another
round of economic assistance later this year. U.S. Deputy Secretary of
Agriculture Stephen Vaden joined us at this annual agriculture showcase to
discuss the important work that is being done in his department. I’m proud of
the work my colleagues and I are doing to ensure our farmers have the support
they need to keep feeding our communities, our nation, and the world. That’s
why I introduced theInvesting in Rural America Act to further strengthen and
uplift our rural communities. While we’ve made real progress through theOne Big
Beautiful Bill(OBBB), there’s still more to do. I look forward to continuing to
partner with our farmers, ranchers, and agriculture industry groups to deliver
on the promises we’ve made.



I am proud to co-sponsor the Veteran Burial Timeliness and Death Certificate
Accountability Act,introduced by my friend and colleague, Majority Whip Tom
Emmer. This bill requires Veterans Affairs (VA) physicians or nurse
practitioners to certify a veteran’s death within 48 hours of being notified.
It is a straightforward change that addresses a serious and heartbreaking
problem. Across the country, states and counties have reported significant
delays in signing death certificates for veterans who pass away from natural
causes. These delays can prevent timely military burials or access to the
benefits that they earned through their service, extending the pain and grief
for families who are already mourning. That is not just a bureaucratic failure;
it is a moral one. Enacting this bill will ensure that those who served receive
the respect they deserve and that their families can grieve without unnecessary
obstacles. Our heroes were willing to give everything for us. The very least we
can do is make sure they are honored properly at the end.



As your Representative, I know how important it is to hear directly from the
people impacted by our work. That’s why my colleagues and I held a forum to
discuss theOne Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) and its impact on the service
industry. We invited a range of participants, from restaurant servers to small
business owners, and what we heard was clear. Hardworking Americans are excited
about the bill’s tax provisions, especially the elimination of taxes on tips
and overtime. These changes alone will save workers thousands of dollars and
put more money into their pockets every year. Out of everyone who attended,
only one person claimed this bill would hurt the middle class—a Democrat state
senator currently campaigning for higher office. The contrast could not be
clearer. After this forum, one thing is obvious: Republicans are the ones
fighting to deliver real relief to America’s middle class. Time and again,
Democrats get distracted by fringe issues like gender ideology, extreme climate
policies, and open borders, while everyday Americans want higher pay, lower
prices, good schools, and safe communities. I am proud of what the OBBB
delivers, and I am confident that its tax provisions will make a real, positive
difference in the lives of our workers and families.
