🛟 Happy Birthday to the U.S. Coast Guard!

Since 1790, the U.S. Coast Guard has protected our nation's shores, safeguarded our maritime borders, and answered the call whenever and wherever they were needed. As one of our nation's oldest military services, the Coast Guard has built a proud legacy of courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication.

Today, we honor the brave men and women, past and present, who have served our nation with selflessness, courage, and steadfast commitment. Happy 236th Birthday, and thank you for all you do to keep America safe!

Spain's border crisis should serve as a stark warning of what could happen in the United States if Democrats are ever given control of our border enforcement again.

Americans don't have to imagine what that looks like. Under the Biden Administration, millions of illegal aliens poured across our Southern Border as immigration laws were ignored, parole programs were abused, and states trying to defend their own communities were met with lawsuits instead of support.

President Donald J. Trump, alongside House Republicans have restored control of our southern border through strong enforcement and commonsense policies that put the safety of the American people first.

It was an honor to attend the Missouri Farm Bureau’s meeting in Warren County to discuss my work in Washington, and how we can work together to protect and strengthen America’s agriculture sector. Missouri’s Third District is home to many of our state’s farms and agricultural producers, making the Farm Bureau’s work vital to ensuring our communities have the resources and support they need to thrive.

I had the opportunity to tour Ole Tyme Produce's facilities in St. Charles with President and CEO Joan Daleo to learn more about the company's operations and its longstanding commitment to serving communities across the region.

As the Gateway area's largest fresh food distributor, Ole Tyme Produce plays an important role in supplying fresh food products to not only restaurants, schools, businesses, and other organizations throughout Missouri, but to the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Thanks for showing me around!

After years of misleading millions of families, Fauci’s newly released diaries further expose his self-serving behavior, his coordination with corporate media to stoke public fear, and the contradictions between what he knew and what he told the American people. They reveal Fauci taking credit for convincing officials to shut down schools and businesses, despite later claiming he “didn’t recommend locking anything down...”

Because of Fauci’s dangerous decision-making, children missed irreplaceable milestones, families celebrated final birthdays through computer screens, more than 68 percent of students are performing worse in both math and reading than they did before the COVID-19 pandemic, and 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 of Americans endured profound isolation, fear, and loss, while Fauci worked to protect his own fame and reputation. The American people deserve full transparency, real accountability, and the truth about the decisions that upended millions of lives.

In honor of Chloe Cole’s birthday, I wrote a new op-ed for the Daily Wire on the importance of protecting America’s children from irreversible harm.

Every birthday is a celebration - a reminder that every one of us is born with inherent dignity, immeasurable worth, and a future full of possibility. Today, on July 27, we wish Chloe Cole a very happy birthday.

Chloe is one of the bravest young women I have ever met. Earlier this year, I was honored to welcome her as my guest at the State of the Union address. Standing in the Capitol, Chloe represented millions of Americans who believe children deserve protection from a medical system that puts woke ideology and financial incentives above their wellbeing. Chloe took an incredibly painful chapter of her life and turned it into a mission to protect others. She has shown extraordinary courage by sharing her story and advocating for children who do not yet have a voice.

The best birthday gift Congress can give Chloe is not an empty promise, but real action.

Workers deserve transparency, not excuses. I introduced the Improving Clarity and Transparency for Unions Act, or “Improving CTU Act,” to hold union leaders accountable and ensure American workers have access to information about how their dues are spent.

🚨 NEW EPISODE DOCTOR BOB RX

The Biden Administration’s open-border policies created serious vulnerabilities, and today, individuals registering to vote largely rely on the honor system.

This week, my colleagues and I in House Republicans officially passed the SAVE America Act, which would strengthen protections by requiring documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections.

We believe Americans deserve confidence that our elections are secure, accurate, and decided only by eligible voters. Listen to me 👇 speak more about the importance of this legislation.
