March 2025

I had the honor of attending the swearing-in ceremony for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after being confirmed Secretary of Health and Human Services.

The ceremony was held in the Oval Office, a unique honor.

I'm looking forward to working with Secretary Kennedy in his commitment to radical transparency and conquering chronic illness. I believe this is a watershed moment for America.

The American people gave President Trump a clear mandate, and he is delivering on his promise to put America first. During the four years of disastrous leadership from former President Biden and Vice President Harris, our nation faced the worst border crisis in history, crippling inflation, record-high gas prices, and strategic weakness that brought us closer to WWIII than ever before.

With all the news of the DOGE findings and other incentives to reduce fraud, waste, and abuse in the federal government – in Washington, D.C. and all across the country – “they” must remember that the money involved belongs to “we the people” meaning you and me. Much of the entrenched government bureaucracy and even many elected Democrats may try to tell you differently!

The State Capitol has been a busy place lately. The revolving door in my office never stops turning. Every day I meet with constituents, stakeholders, and interest groups about their priorities for the legislative session. These meetings are largely focused on the budget and are requests to spend your tax dollars on their preferred proposals.
