Dear Texans,

I hope you and your family stayed safe during the winter storm that swept through North Texas this week. Thank you to Texas Division of Emergency Management, the local power providers, and all the emergency crews who worked around the clock to clear the roads and restore power for Texans.

Biden Administration Distracts from Small Business Failures 

Under the Biden Administration, small businesses have faced sky-high inflation, worker shortages, and supply chain disruptions. A media tour pulled by the Vice President this past week is a distraction and fails to fix these economic headwinds Main Street continues to face. I addressed this on the House floor this week and you can click on the photo below to watch the full speech. 

Announcing Small Business Committee Members 

This week, I was pleased to officially announce the Republican Members of the House Small Business Committee. We are ready to get to work on behalf of Main Street America and work to find solutions to the most pressing issues facing our nation’s entrepreneurs. You can find the complete list of members by clicking here. 

Opposing Biden’s Burdensome WOTUS Rule

The Biden Administration's “Waters of the United States” (WOTUS) rule will lead to sweeping changes to the federal government’s authority to regulate what is considered navigable water. This rule will harm small businesses, home builders, farmers, and ranchers across the country and empower bureaucrats at the EPA to insert themselves into the decisions of countless private entities. This week, I was glad to join my colleagues in a Resolution disapproving of the Biden Administration's rule which you can read below.

 

In God we trust,

Roger Williams

Member of Congress
