Introduced the Vaccine Discharge Parity Act
Those who have fought to defend our country should never be deprived of the benefits they so rightly deserve. While Republicans fought successfully to revoke the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for our servicemembers, there’s still more work to do. My bill restores education benefits stripped of those who discharged under the military vaccine mandate.

Introduced the CRT Transparency Act
Parents have the right to know what their children are being taught in the classroom. It’s clear bureaucrats and teachers’ unions have no reservations about putting divisive material such as critical race theory in front of our children that seeks to put people in groups based on skin color or gender. My bill will solve this problem by helping parents get a straight answer about what their children are hearing in school.

Introduced the Separation of Powers Restoration Act
Our Constitution clearly gives legislative power to Congress and judicial power to our federal courts. For too long, the Chevron deference has given unelected bureaucrats unjustified power at the expense of Congressional intent. My bill would mitigate the Biden Administration’s overreaching executive actions by rightfully returning power to Congress.

Recommended to Serve on Financial Services Committee
This week, I was recommended by my peers to serve on the House Financial Services Committee. American taxpayers and businesses desperately need pro-growth policies and regulatory stability to combat persistent inflation and economic uncertainty. I look forward to working to advancing fiscally responsible solutions to rebuild the nation’s economy.
The Financial Services Committee has jurisdiction over issues pertaining to the economy, the banking system, housing, insurance, and securities and exchanges. Additionally, the Committee also has jurisdiction over monetary policy, international finance, international monetary organizations, and efforts to combat terrorist financing.
