There is literally no way to understate how threatening an open southern border is to our national and collective security. With a cartel presence in every US state, how are we expected to fight fentanyl? THIS is why border security matters.

Humbled and honored by the opportunity to deliver the Republican Address to the Nation in Spanish following the State of the Union. My message is simple: The American Dream is a dream worth fighting for. Mi mensaje es sencillo, el sueño americano merece ser defendido. 🇺🇸

I'm proud to tap @RepCiscomani to deliver this year's Republican Address to the Nation in Spanish. His story is nothing short of inspirational: as a young boy, he and his family immigrated to the United States with the profound intuition that in America, anything is possible.

Ilhan Omar's past statements make it clear she is unfit to represent the U.S. on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. - She repeatedly used anti-semitic tropes - She described 9/11 by saying "some people did something" - She compared America and Israel to Hamas and the Taliban

100 Democrats just refused to denounce socialism. That’s scary—and it explains a lot about why Congress has been spending so much these last four years.

Last time I checked, I’ve been black for a long time. I’ve been a minority for a long time. Am I racist for calling what’s happening at the southern border, an invasion? No. I’m a Congressman who is tired of this administration using racism as a scapegoat for everything. -WPH

As the dad of three very competitive daughters, I’m proud to see them follow their mom’s lead and learn valuable lessons on perseverance & teamwork through sports. On this National Girls & Women in Sports Day, let’s ensure all our girls continue to play on a even playing field.

Today, on Girls & Women in Sports Day, I listened to female athletes tell their stories of unfair competition, and I commit to them and to you—I will always stand up for a level playing field for women in sports.

Our debt is too high. We have waste in our government. The problem is getting worse, not better. Republicans and Democrats must work together for a responsible debt limit that puts us on a path to a balanced budget.

Yesterday, informed us that they prepared a press statement regarding the Penn-Biden Center classified docs. However, the Archives confirmed someone suppressed the statement from going public. Only two have that authority: 1. The White House 2. DOJ

California had a nearly $100B surplus—a stat previously touted by Governor Newsom. Yet, CA is one of only 4 states that has failed to repay its debt, leaving hardworking Californians to foot the bill. I commend and the CA GOP for holding Newsom accountable.

I'm leading my colleagues in telling @GavinNewsom that forcing California employers to pay higher FUTA taxes because of the failure of our State to pay its debts, in a year when the State had a multibillion-dollar budget surplus, is nothing short of theft.

Speaking with and my colleagues and on the why women’s sports should be WOMEN’s sports!

Allowing biological boys to compete in women’s sports is wokeness at its worst. It erases women. It can deprive them of the opportunity to be champions, excel at sports, and earn college scholarships. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1
