PSA: our southern border is literally under invasion and our elected Democrats are going nothing about it.
Looks like markets are betting on Republicans gaining the majority. With the anticipated change in house leadership, the Dow Jones spiked 1,200 points. An optimistic note for the @HouseGOP and our nation. Thanks, @GOPleader
It’s time for the President and his anti-American energy agenda to get out of the way so America can #FliptTheSwitch and regain our energy independence. I joined @TXRandy14 and several @HouseGOP members in calling out @POTUS' reckless energy policies. ⬇️ https://t.co/96gGCxPFWI
The Biden admin is LITERALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel of America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve. This is an extremely reckless move made solely for @POTUS’ political gain. https://t.co/vhIdctzO9R
Many states are seeing another rise in gasoline prices this week thanks to our dependence on foreign nations for oil. The United States must return to prioritizing American energy production to ever have a chance of getting the #BidenEnergyCrisis under control.
Under President Biden, skyrocketing gas prices will cost the average American family an extra $2,000 this year. We must increase our domestic production of Energy to reduce the crippling energy costs that Americans are facing. #BidenEnergyCrisis
The crisis at the southern border is the worst that I have seen during my entire time in Congress. @dallasnews https://t.co/Ej8ZYU5woX
The International Organization for Standardization voted to make a “merchant category code” for gun retailers. Soon, CC companies will be able to monitor/track your legal firearm purchases. 2A rights are under fire, and we must continue to stand up for our Constitutional rights!
Hardworking Americans are paying more for just about everything in Joe Biden's America. Gas is UP 25.6%⬆️ Electricity is UP 15.8%⬆️ Health Insurance is UP 24.3%⬆️ Mr. President, I don't think we should be celebrating. QT @POTUS: Exactly four weeks ago, I signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law. So today, we're celebrating. Tune in at 3… https://t.co/nxHna2VW8D)
Across the world, nations are struggling against the worst energy crisis since 1979. In the midst of it all, the U.N. wants to rid Europe of fossil fuels, totally disregarding the needs of its citizens. Let us never allow something this dangerous to happen to the United States.
President Biden's "cancellation" of student loan debt is unlawful and overreaching. @SpeakerPelosi said it herself! I joined my fellow members in a letter to the Speaker requesting that she take action to ensure Congress rejects this abuse of authority.
Forgiving student loan debt without holding educational institutions/employers accountable for facilitating relevant job opportunities only incentivizes risky spending and higher tuition costs. QT @LHSummers: Every dollar spent on student loan relief is a dollar that could have gone to support those who don’t get the opportunity to go to college.)
Why did Dems vote against an amendment that would protect taxpayers making less than $400K from being audited? Clearly, everyday Americans are the target. https://t.co/4I534Vtdr0 #FoxBusiness

2.I mentioned on the @HouseGOP floor that for two generations now, many Americans' first picture in their baby book is a sonogram picture. I am grateful for @cathymcmorris leadership on @HouseCommerce as we fight to protect life. #Prolife https://t.co/qFudZnx0dJ

#BidenFlation has been the taco of the town. QT @GOPLeader: Speaking of tacos, the prices of their ingredients are going up. https://t.co/cOEEHZ8xZi)
Now that @SCOTUS is out, I’d like to thank the justices for directing America to a bright future.
4.When will @POTUS accept that his policies are the cause of the humanitarian crisis at our southern border? #BidenBorderCrisis https://t.co/sMdc4oI5Q4
In this era of soaring costs, Senate negotiators decided to further insulate the nation’s largest health care companies from a federal law against accepting “any kickback, bribe, or rebate” — using a bill that’s supposedly about regulating guns.” https://t.co/lUH5g0TceU
If we cannot enforce our laws now to keep Americans safe, how can we ensure any new ones will? https://t.co/GgzpL1ncUE
Each year nearly 100,000 Americans lose their life to a blood clot. I'd like to thank @RepCindyAxne for joining me in shedding light on this cause. To #TX26, I hear to listen. https://t.co/CKTBH9HbCa

Thank you to the Ripon Society and Franklin Center for Global Policy Exchange for awarding me the 2022 Roosevelt Leadership Award. #Leadership https://t.co/gQZKbHnqss https://t.co/y0foi2bC22
The hypocrisy behind the CDC removing Title 42 for migrants while extending the mask mandate for public transportation proves the Biden Admin cares more about their radical agenda than actually following the science.
@MariaBartiromo A few weeks ago, these same oil executives were in front of another committee who harangued them because they produced too much oil and yesterday they blamed them for not producing enough. Which is it? #BidenGasHike #BidenPriceHike #FlipTheSwitch https://t.co/mi1hOhye9x

It was a pleasant surprise to receive a #KingCake from my friend @RepSamGraves the other day. #TBT #ThankYou
In just two years, we went from being energy independent back to dependent, with imports from Russia hitting the highest in a decade. How can the President continue to import Russian gas but and call for sanctions on Nord Stream 2?
The Crisis at the Border has resulted in a Mental health crisis for our Agents. I won’t stop bringing awareness to this issue until President Biden listens to our Border Patrol Agents and implements laws to fix this mess he created. https://t.co/P5Bun0te9G
Now that Pelosi's own governor is lifting California's mask mandates, maybe she will take a hint and re-open the People's House. #EndTheMandates https://t.co/94aCVDQLnm

Besides the home, school ranks second in influencing a student’s wellbeing and health. This is why #NationalSchoolChoiceWeek is important in raising awareness to the negative affects online school has been on our children.
We need more than just use one weapon in our fight against #COVID19. Grateful for @FDAgov providing an EUA for Pfizer’s oral antiviral treatment of COVID-19. https://t.co/C7lRISNbhl

As usual my friend Dan Crenshaw's insight is clarifying. There are a ton of things we could be fighting about. This not one of them. QT @DanCrenshawTX: I’m sick of people lying about this “new vaccine database” BS. There’s no new database. Here are the facts:)
