Friends,
Get out your bell bottoms and Bee Gees records. From long gas lines, skyrocketing inflation, terrorists attacking Israel, to a Jimmy Carter photo-op - last week sadly felt like the 70's are back!
Our state was hit hard last week with gas shortages and price increases following a cyberattack on the Colonial Pipeline. Nationally, the average price for gas rose to over $3 for the first time in 7 years.
Friends,
As we celebrated Mother's Day on Sunday, I want to first say thank you to all the moms across our community for all you do all year long. I am blessed to have a great mom who is a retired Cabarrus County school teacher and who taught me important values like public service. I'm also thankful everyday for my wife, Renee, who is an incredible mom to our son.
Friends,
Last week, President Joe Biden marked his first 100 days in office. I give him an A on his rhetoric but an F on his results. Here's why.
President Biden called for unity and bipartisanship in his inaugural address. I was at the inauguration to demonstrate my commitment to our nation's peaceful transfer of power. I have always worked across the aisle on bipartisan solutions and hope to work with the president whenever possible.
House Republicans have declared that they will start work again on the wall along the U.S.-Mexico border if they win control of the House in the midterm elections, the Washington Examiner reported on Monday.
When he entered the White House in January, President Joe Biden halted construction of new sections of the border wall, one of former President Donald Trump's major projects.
The GOP apparently plans to make border security a top campaign issue for the midterms next year.
Friends,
These are challenging times and you deserve better than the partisanship coming from Washington.
I was encouraged by President Joe Biden calling for unity in his inaugural address. But I've been disappointed since then, as he and Speaker Nancy Pelosi have pushed their agenda without making any real efforts toward bipartisanship.
House Republicans, eager to elevate border security to a top 2022 campaign issue, said Monday they would revive the now-stalled construction of the wall along the U.S.-Mexico border that was championed by former President Donald Trump and nixed by President Joe Biden.
"I think we need to look at every possible tool," House Conference Committee Chairwoman Liz Cheney said at the Republican issues retreat in Orlando, Florida. "That includes the wall, and it includes technology and being able to move again toward agreements where people who are seeking asylum stay in Mexico."
