Dear John,
Today marks two years of the Biden Administration, and with all the challenges facing our country, I want to hear directly from you. Be sure to take the official Congressional Presidential Approval Survey below and let me know what you think of President Biden's performance over the last two years.
This week I cosponsored the a resolution to establish a Congressional Committee to find federal savings, rein in reckless spending, and bring fiscal responsibility back to Washington, D.C. The House of Representatives also recently passed legislation I supported to protect our Strategic Petroleum Reserve - a critical energy resource for emergencies and wartime - from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Learn more about these bills and take the Presidential Approval Survey below. Don't forget to follow my Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to get these updates in real-time.

Two Years Under President Biden |
|
This week marks two years since the Biden Administration took office, and American families are struggling. Prices are up, bureaucracy has grown, crime is out of control, and there is a crisis at our Southern border.
As your Representative in Congress, I am committed to keeping government accountable, and I'd like to get your thoughts...
|
|
I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on this important issue with me. If you have additional concerns, or are in need of assistance with a federal agency, please contact my office at any time.

Finding Federal Savings |
|
The American people deserve immediate action to cut unnecessary, failing, and duplicative federal programs that keep taxes and our national debt high. I am proud to offer my continued support for Rep. Jay Obernolte's (R-CA) resolution to rein in our national debt by establishing a Finding Federal Savings Committee to bring fiscal responsibility back to the federal government and decrease federal spending by reducing the size of the federal government while streamlining the bureaucracy. We must act to stop wasteful spending, get our deficit under control, and stabilize our economy.

I Will Always Work for You |
|
Serving as your voice in Washington, D.C. is an incredible honor. It was a pleasure to gather with constituents of the California's 45th Congressional District to take the oath of office. I will always work for you - not for Washington, D.C,

Energy Security is National Security |
|
Energy security is national security, and the Chinese Communist Party is the greatest international threat our country faces. Unfortunately, the Administration's policies have crippled American energy and depleted our Strategic Petroleum Reserves, an emergency oil supply for extreme emergencies. While our own SPR is at its lowest level in decades, the CCP now controls the world's largest stockpile.
That is why I was proud to vote in favor of the Protecting America's Strategic Petroleum Reserve from China Act, introduced by Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA). This legislation, which passed the House with bipartisan support, will stop the Administration from depleting America's SPR and selling it to our adversaries. I remain committed to supporting policies that will unleash American energy and prevent the CCP from getting a foothold.
