Dear Friend,
The past few weeks in Washington have been frustrating.
At the end of September, we had to pass a short-term funding bill so that we could finish passing fiscally responsible appropriations bills. Then, instead of continuing on with this work, Speaker McCarthy was removed from the Speaker’s job by 8 people who were more interested in pursuing personal political agendas than commonsense, conservative policies.
Now, the House still does not have a Speaker, leaving us paralyzed and unable to do the people’s work.
There is important business for Congress to address. We must finish the job of passing fiscally responsible appropriations bills that cut back on out-of-control spending by the Biden Administration, closing the open door that is allowing criminals, drugs, and perhaps terrorists to cross our southern border practically unchecked, and passing a Farm Bill that supports our farmers and is good for consumers.
Plus, we need to be ready to stand by our great friend and ally, Israel.
It's time to get back to work.
As we look for a way forward, I hope you’ll stay up-to-date with my work in Washington and across Northeast Ohio by checking out my website and following me on Facebook, X, and Instagram.
