Yesterday the President made it clear that we will not stand idly by while Bashar al-Assad barbarically uses chemical weapons to take the lives of innocent men, women, and children. President Trump’s decision to launch a targeted airstrike on the airfield where Assad launched the deadly chemical attack on Monday shows a strength and responsibility that we have not seen in eight years.

For eight years, I have joined my colleagues in the fight to repeal and replace the train wreck that is Obamacare. This was the call heard around the nation for years, particularly leading up to President Trump's historic victory. We promised the American people that if they supported us, help would be on the way. As a conservative, I believe that the federal government should have a limited role in our personal lives, including health care. Read more about Ted Poe: Why I Left the Freedom Caucus
When the president is fighting the Freedom Caucus, the Heritage Foundation, and the Club for Growth and threatening to fight their re-election he is making a BIG MISTAKE! Turning for help to moderate Republicans and Democrats he is wading in the swamp he once wanted to drain. If he continues down this road we will wind up with politics as usual with the establishment in the driver’s seat. Read more about The President is Wading in Swamp Water
An anti-union measure that some worry is unconstitutional has now been sent to the Texas House of Representatives by the Senate, moving much more quickly through the process than a similar proposal did during the last regular session of the Legislature in Austin two years ago.

This week, the Senate will vote on the confirmation of Judge Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Throughout this process, America has seen Judge Gorsuch’s incredible intellect, sterling character and devotion to the rule of law. Objections raised by Democrats against him just don’t hold up.

There comes a time in the lives of attorneys when they confront things being done in the name of The Law that cannot, by any stretched interpretation or any intellectually honest review, be accepted or condoned as “being legal”. If you were fortunate, you had the influence in your early years of someone, perhaps a mother or father, a grand parent or maybe a teacher, who would tap you on the shoulder and tell you “no, you cannot do that, and you know it is not permitted” and thus not legal. You were, then, given an internal conscience, a moral, (and legal) compass with which you could lead your life. There are some, perhaps many, in the legal profession who have no such internal compass. It simply is not there, and likely never was there. It is those members of the profession I speak of and to in this story. Read more about The Ultimate Price for Violating the Rule of Law

Today on the Senate floor, I addressed the attempt by Senate Democrats to launch an unprecedented partisan filibuster of Judge Neil Gorsuch’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court. Excerpts of my remarks are below, and video of my remarks can be found
