Welcome to “Fightin’ for WV” A 90-second overview of our work in Washington, with an insight into the latest conservative news.
------------------------------------------------------------
A New Administration 🇺🇸
We are blessed to live in a country that has a history of peaceful transitions of power. Since our first President, George Washington, power has been transferred peacefully and stands as a testament to the strength of our republic.
President Trump chose to leave the White House last Wednesday after delivering excellent farewell remarks. I was present at the Capitol later that morning to witness President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris being sworn in to office. I will continue to pray for President Biden and Vice President Harris throughout their term in office.

Impeachment is Not the Way Forward 🚫
If we are to truly work towards unity in this country, impeaching a President that has already served his term is not the way to go. We are in the midst of a pandemic and many American families and small businesses are struggling. Our focus should be on providing aid, distributing the vaccine and reopening our economy.
The rushed process lacks constitutional merit and sets a terrible precedent. That’s why I voted "no" on impeachment and hope my colleagues do not spend another moment on this divisive topic. Instead, it is time for Democrats to work with Republicans to find ways to help the American people.
Many Democrats never accepted Trump as a legitimate president. Remember this ridiculous tweet by the Speaker of the House denying Trump won the election in 2016? They were falsely claiming the Russians had interfered.

Proudly Pro-Life 👶
Last Friday marked the anniversary of Roe V Wade. Since this landmark ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States, some 60 million American lives have been lost in the womb. I will continue to work towards pro-life policies that protect the unborn.
The past few years have shown an increased momentum for our movement and I trust it will continue to grow if we work hard to stand up for those who cannot speak. You too can do your part by participating in the March for Life ([link removed]) on January 29, which will be online this year.

Kindness is Contagious 🙌
In a time when so many are struggling, one local Huntington man took it upon himself to pass along an incredible act of charity ([link removed]) . Shannon Harshbarger, post commander, American Legion Post 16, chose to donate both his stimulus checks to the Facing Hunger Foodbank. “I’ve been blessed in my life….and it’s just a way to give back to the community,” he said. His donations provided 25,700 meals for those in need.
