Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day! Today, as we enjoy this holiday with friends and family across the Tenth District, I wanted to share a brief message to celebrate this important and historic holiday. Let us remember our founding fathers and their belief in the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. God Bless America. Click here or on the image below to watch.

A Worsening Border Crisis

The crisis at the border is only getting worse. U.S. Border Patrol agents have apprehended 50 suspected terrorists on the watch list in Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 compared to only 15 in FY 2021. These numbers mean one thing: we need to stop the Biden administration’s dangerous open border policies and instead work to reduce the flow of illegal immigrants into the country and keep our communities safe.

Recently, I joined Congressman Richard Hudson and all the Republican Members of North Carolina's Congressional Delegation in questioning the Biden administration about reports of unaccompanied children (UACs) being resettled at the American Hebrew Academy in Greensboro beginning in July. In our letter we demand answers to how the resettlement will impact our local communities. Click here or on the image below to read the letter.

Condemning Violence Against Pro-Life Groups

On June 7, radical pro-abortion activists targeted Mountain Area Pregnancy Services (MAPS) in Asheville. These activists also declared “open season” on pro-life pregnancy centers. This violence should be condemned and those committing these crimes must be prosecuted. That is why last week, I joined Senator Tillis and other Republicans from NC in asking the DOJ to forcefully condemn the ongoing violence against pro-life and religious groups and prosecute the criminals engaging in these attacks to the fullest extent of the law.

What I've Been Reading

Inflation is making Fourth of July celebrations more expensive than ever

CNBC

This holiday weekend should be a time to get together with our family and friends to celebrate the founding of our great nation. Instead, many Americans are struggling to afford basic necessities because of the skyrocketing inflation caused by the Democrats’ reckless policies. The cost of everything has gone up, including the price for Americans’ favorite cookout foods, forcing families to spend 17% more this year compared to last year.
