More than 95,000 South Carolinians live with Alzheimer’s disease. This month is set aside to increase awareness and to stand in support of those affected by this disease.

Students in low-income communities experienced learning loss at greater rates than peers in wealthier schools. Congress should immediately pass my RECOVER Act to empower parents to help get their children back on track regardless of their zip code!

Small businesses build and sustain our nation. When we fail them, we fail our country.

Umm, about that "strong economy"... 37% of US small businesses, which between them employ almost half of all Americans working in the private sector, were unable to pay their rent in full in October bloomberg.com/news/articles/

Inflation is making it impossible for seniors to live off of their retirement income, as they planned. Now, they're forced to look for roommates just to survive in an economy the Biden administration has crippled.

The U.S. must no longer fund this illegitimate and antisemitic targeting of Israel. We must pass my COI Elimination Act!

The U.N. Human Rights Council’s Commission of Inquiry report is nothing more than a baseless and biased attack against our democratic ally Israel. twitter.com/giladerdan1/st…

Democrats are dead set on pushing a radical agenda that comes at the cost of you not being able to provide for your family.

Inflation rates are up. Gas prices are up. The cost of groceries is up. Folks’ retirement savings are dwindling away.

The new data released this week shows that 74% of students are not proficient in math. This heartbreaking report reaffirms that we are in an educational tragedy. Parents need options NOW to help their children get back on track.

It is disheartening to see vulnerable seniors and hardworking American families struggle in Biden’s economy. The Biden administration’s failed fiscal policies are burdening the budgets of the American people.

Everyone deserves the chance to build their version of the American Dream, but Democrats’ reckless spending is slamming the doors of opportunity shut for far too many Americans.

This administration needs to take national security seriously! They can start by securing our southern border and unleashing American oil!

Education is one of the most overlooked issues in our nation, yet it is one of the single most important factors in a person’s ability to climb the economic ladder. Families deserve to have a voice in educational opportunities to ensure their children are thriving.

The inflation rate hit 8.2% this month & is the #1 issue in every American household. Period. So why are Democrats implying that hardworking American families are like Nazis because we care about the rising cost of everyday household items? dailycaller.com/2022/10/20/msn

The truth is we can and should produce our own energy. Domestic energy production means more jobs, lower prices, and less dependence on others for energy security.

I am proud that South Carolina is fostering growth and development! This investment proves the Palmetto state is a place for business and innovation!

South Carolina is booming and today we added to that growth as BMW announced the largest capital investment in state history of $1.7 billion. This shows the trust that companies have not only in the state of SC but in our great people.

The Biden administration manufactured a humanitarian crisis at our southern border. It is time to take leadership and secure our border!

It is great to see South Carolina schools starting to get back to normal after years of pandemic disruptions. While we still have more work to do to ensure every child succeeds, these results are encouraging & show signs of improvement. 1/2

President Biden and the Democrats’ reckless spending and failed economic policies are putting opportunity further and further out of reach for many hardworking families. This should not be the case.

Higher food, utilities, and medical costs are burdens that the already stretched budgets of American seniors and single parents are struggling to keep up with. Democrats and President Biden MUST stop their economic recklessness.

The math is simple: prices for the everyday products and services hardworking Americans need continue to rise much faster than wages. President Biden’s failed economic policies are leaving more and more people with too much month left at the end of their money.

It is a great honor to nominate qualified students to one of our Nation’s service academies. The deadline for my office’s nomination process is today, October 14th, so be sure to get your information in!
