John,
It’s been a frustrating week trying to end the Schumer Shutdown and keep
moving on our America First agenda, but I wanted to take a moment to update you
on the important work we are doing to advance our conservative values.
It’s been over a week since Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House
Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries started holding our federal agencies hostage.
My Minnesota Republican colleagues and I wrote a letter to our state’s Democrat
Senators, Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith, urging them to end the government
shutdown. The clean, continuing resolution passed in the House two weeks ago
would fund all federal agencies until mid-November. As Members from both
parties support this resolution, it is extremely disappointing that Schumer is
putting a challenge to his leadership position before the interests of the
American people. That’s why the Minnesota Republican delegation called on our
state’s Senators, and by extension all Senators, to end the shutdown so the
federal government has the funding for important services while we negotiate on
appropriations.
President Trump has again stepped up where weak governors have failed—this
time, ordering National Guard deployments to Chicago. For months, Governor J.B.
Pritzker has stood in the way of law enforcement, illegally blocking
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from doing their jobs. This
has allowed violent, anti-immigration mobs to attack federal personnel and
destroy federal property. His refusal to uphold the law has turned Chicago into
a sanctuary for chaos. Because of Pritzker’s failure to lead, the Texas
National Guard is standing by to deploy on a 60-day mission to help Chicago by
removing dangerous illegal immigrants and criminals who should have been
detained long ago. This is exactly why I support theNo Bailout for Sanctuary
Cities Act, introduced by Rep. Nick LaLota. States that defy federal
immigration law should not receive a dime of federal taxpayer money. Illinois
is not an isolated case; it’s part of a pattern of lawlessness that puts
American lives at risk. President Trump is right to act, and I applaud his
continued leadership to restore order, enforce the law, and keep our nation
safe.
I joined more than 45 members of the House and Senate in a bipartisan letter
to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), urging them to finalize their
rule on imported Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs) and enforce their
proposed biofuel diesel volumes. The American Farm Bureau Federation, National
Oilseed Processors Association, American Soybean Association, and the National
Sorghum Producers endorsed the letter. Our farmers and ranchers don’t need to
continue relying on foreign fuels and feedstocks; rather, they need the EPA to
uphold its promise to prioritize domestic biofuel production. The import RIN
reduction puts America's farmers first and provides significant support to our
farm economy. I will continue to urge the EPA to allow our homegrown biofuels
industry to do its part to help strengthen U.S. energy security.
As always, thank you for your continued trust and support. Don’t hesitate to
reach out if you have any questions or need assistance with anything. If the
shutdown is affecting you or your business personally, please call our office

With gratitude,
