As my time representing Alabama’s First Congressional District in Washington comes to an end, I have been reflecting on why I ran for Congress and some of the things my team and I have done for south Alabama.  I never thought I’d end up running for political office, much less for Congress. I spent most […]

Those of us who were born and raised during the Cold War fully understand how dangerous, destructive, and deadly communism and communist regimes have been. Communism is to blame for the deaths over 100 million people and for the trampling of basic human rights for more than 1.5 billion people around the world. The United […]

Yesterday afternoon, President Biden issued a “Full and Unconditional Pardon” for any and all offenses his son Hunter committed or may have committed for the past decade. Despite repeatedly saying he would not pardon Hunter for his many serious crimes, President Biden has gone back on his word, made a mockery of our justice system, […]

Since the first day of the Biden-Harris administration, illegal immigrants were given the green light to flood our country. I’ve been sounding the alarm the entire time because so many of these illegal immigrants are bringing drugs and violent crime into communities all over this country. The failure to secure our border isn’t just affecting […]

The American people made their voices heard loud and clear on November 5th. After 4 years of failed leadership by the Biden-Harris administration, folks in Alabama and all across this country are ready for new leadership so we can get this country back on track. Thankfully, Republicans kept control of the House, flipped the Senate, […]

One of the greatest achievements of the Trump administration and the Republican-controlled Congress during the beginning of President Trump’s term was passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) in January of 2018. These Trump Tax Cuts, which did not get a single Democratic vote, were the largest overhaul of the tax code in roughly […]

Roughly two years ago, the Biden-Harris administration rammed through their so-called “Inflation Reduction Act (IRA),” claiming it would stop inflation and get prices under control for struggling Americans. From the moment they introduced this bill, I was opposed to it for numerous reasons. This was the bill that included $80 billion for the IRS to […]

As another dangerous and potentially deadly hurricane is set to make landfall in Florida in a few days, communities in Tennessee, Georgia, and North Carolina are still struggling to get all the necessary federal assistance to recover and rebuild from the damage caused by Hurricane Helene. Unfortunately, the response from the Biden-Harris administration has been […]

The Republican Party has long been accused of being ineffective by the media and the other side of the aisle. Despite calling out the crisis at our southern border from the beginning and passing effective legislation for border security, this Administration and Democratic lawmakers have only enabled waves of illegals crossing into our country. On […]

During their three and a half years in the White House, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have consistently made the world a less safe place. Their time in office has only produced chaos on the global stage, and the safety and security of our southern border is utterly nonexistent. They have absolutely failed as leaders […]

It’s no secret the Biden-Harris Administration has failed the American people. Our border is an utter disaster with absolutely no enforcement from the White House to keep illegal migrants out. Not only are we being flooded by thousands of illegal immigrants walking over our Southern Border, but it is totally unaffordable for Americans to live […]

For months, Biden had insisted on staying in the race for the presidency. He claimed he was both mentally and physically capable, right for the job, and would “save our democracy.” Despite the media coverups and far-reaching loyalties by his own party, Republicans could always see how Biden has failed Americans and was unfit from […]

One of my favorite things about Alabama’s First Congressional District is the opportunities and resources we have because of the Gulf of Mexico. So many of us from around the state (and plenty of neighboring states) have all enjoyed recreating in Alabama’s waters, and we all benefit from the commercial activity at the Port of […]

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress signed the Declaration of Independence, declaring independence from the hand of the oppressive British monarchy. Two days later, John Hancock, who was the President of Congress, sent letters to each colony and to General Washington announcing the Declaration. It was then read out loud to citizens in […]

Since the early days of then-candidate Donald Trump’s campaign for the presidency, it’s been clear that the political establishment and our justice system are using and abusing  every tool they have to harm him and try to destroy him. Whether or not you are a fan of President Trump, we can all agree that every […]

When House Republicans win back the majority in a few short weeks, we will quickly work to ensure our government is accountable to all Americans. Since the first day I took office, I’ve been fighting this fight because it’s absolutely critical for us to preserve a government of the people, by the people, and for […]

Foreign-controlled United States farmland presents serious national security risks to our nation, including the potential for a foreign country such as China to have a massive control over U.S. food production, pricing, and supply chains. We need to work at the local, state, and federal level to learn more about the seriousness of the issue. […]

Across this nation, nearly 8 million high school students are participating in athletics, and nearly half a million college students compete as NCAA athletes. Last year, the NCAA surveyed 9,800 student athletes and found these athletes are reporting higher-than-average levels of mental health issues. Even worse, a third of those who took the survey said […]

Americans can no longer afford one-party Democrat rule. Because of bad policy coming from this Democrat-controlled Congress and the White House, America’s seniors are having to dip into their savings, families are struggling to meet basic household needs, and many feel the American dream is becoming harder to achieve. While Americans are paying more for […]

A few weeks ago, I wrote about a plan my House Republican colleagues and I have been working on so that we are fully prepared to hit the ground running when we take back the House this November. We believe it’s absolutely critical for us to lay this groundwork now so that we do not […]

Alabama led the space race. We led in bringing jobs like Mercedes and Hyundai to our state. Now, it’s time for Alabama to lead the nation again by reopening our economy and getting Alabama and America back to work. During the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic, Alabamians learned the importance of staying home and […]
