Terrorism Does Not Justify Immigration Moratorium

Although the threat from immigrant-caused terrorism is low, some small immigration reforms like allowing immigration agents to search social media or to focus their efforts entirely on detecting security concerns rather than fake marriages will be far more cost effective than a $200 billion annual immigration moratorium. Perhaps we should try those cheaper methods first?

Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio

Issues: 

The rise of the anti-establishment candidates like Trump and Carson have led to the collapse of many candidates who many favored just a few months ago. Scott Walker was leading the pack of reformist conservative governors who were ready to take charge, but by the end of the summer, many candidates were either gone or struggling in the single digits.

Serbia Steps Up At A Critical Time

Issues: 

Serbia's recent donation of $5.4 million to the Bosnian town of Srebrenica, where thousands of Muslims were killed in the Yugoslav Wars, is a clear sign that the Serbian Government wants to do what they can to improve relationships with countries in the region. Mending these relationships is especially important as the Balkans are on the front lines of the refugee crisis. Read more about Serbia Steps Up At A Critical Time

The Amazing Mark Steyn

Issues: 

In a recent congressional hearing about climate change, Mark Steyn proved to be the star of the event as he knocked the Democrats and climate alarmists off their game. Usually these congressional hearings feature some climate alarmists distilling their propaganda and have the Democrats on the panel oh and ah at every pronouncement of the end of the world unless we give up all powers to them to save the planet.

Recouping Relocation Bonuses from VA Employees

Issues: 

The Department of Veteran Affairs has yet to recover the relocation bonuses that were fraudulently obtained by executives at the department. It’s unacceptable that some of these employees are receiving bonuses at a time when veterans can’t even get in to see a doctor due to lack of funds and poor performance by VA employees.

Issues: 

On Thursday, U.S. Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Mike Lee (R-Utah) introduced the “Reciprocity Ensures Streamlined Use of Lifesaving Treatments Act (S. 2388), or the RESULT Act,” which would amend the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act to allow for reciprocal approval of drugs.

Limiting the Federal Footprint in our Nation’s Classrooms

Issues: 

When it comes to our children’s education, I have always believed that we need to roll back Washington’s involvement in our classrooms. Since the deeply flawed No Child Left Behind Act – which I voted against – was implemented we have seen student achievement in math and reading sharply decline. American students are falling behind and more federal regulations are the problem, not the answer. Read more about Limiting the Federal Footprint in our Nation’s Classrooms

Donald Trump and the Forgotten American

Issues: 

As an Iowan, I will be part of the first wave of voters determining who will be the Republican nominee. As someone who will not be voting for Donald Trump, I do have a few observations. A Democratic friend of mine mentioned how her sister is voting for Donald Trump. Read more about Donald Trump and the Forgotten American

The Importance of Strong US-Georgia Relations

Issues: 

As co-chair of the Georgia Caucus along with Congressman Gerald Connolly, I would like to take a moment to discuss the importance of a strong U.S.-Georgia relationship. Read more about The Importance of Strong US-Georgia Relations

The Paris Betrayal

Issues: 

The recent climate agreement is nothing more a great betrayal of the middle class and poor here in the United States as the left will continue their war on fossil fuels while increasing the cost of energy. From a world perspective, a pundit summarized the result as he wrote that this treaty represents the “transfer of wealth from the poor people in rich nations to the wealthy people in poorer countries.” Read more about The Paris Betrayal
