While our country faces a host of challenges, the Republican-led House has put forward tangible solutions to the difficulties we face.
For example, on April 26th my House Republican colleagues and I passed the Limit, Save, Grow Act. This legislation would address the debt ceiling and rein in Washington’s out of control spending with reasonable measures. As negotiations continue, it has… Read more »
Make no mistake, the past two years of chaos on our nation’s southern border have had a direct impact on Southwest Michigan. Communities across the 4th Congressional District and throughout Michigan have seen first-hand the deadly effect failing to properly secure our border truly has.

On March 27th, I held my first telephone town hall as the representative of Michigan’s 4th Congressional District. I took questions from across the district on a host of topics including… Read more »

Over the past two years, too many Southwest Michigan residents have… Read more »

The Parents Bill of Rights Act defines legal protections for parents and… Read more »
