Thank you for reading my newsletter. Here's a summary of last week:
Key Votes
H.R. 5 Parents Bill of Rights Act - YES
Overruling Biden's Veto of ESG politicization of retirement accounts - YES

It was a pleasure spending time with Detective Andy Wilkiewicz and getting him a tour of the U.S. Capitol. I'm grateful for his heroism in intervening in an attempted robbery and his exceptional recovery since. I will always back the blue.
Milwaukee Police Association Reception
I had a fantastic time with the good people of the Milwaukee Police Association at a reception they hosted to bring together supporters of Wisconsin law enforcement in Washington. I'm proud to support the work they do to back our police officers.
