I'm proud to be an original cosponsor of this legislation to safeguard fair and competitive women's sports.

Time and time again, the far-Left only favors fairness when it aligns with their woke agenda. It’s simple: biological males have no place in women’s sports.
Today I reintroduced my bill to ensure women & girls a fair playing field in competitive sports!

Deb, Ray, and Molly have experienced immeasurable pain from losing their children to fentanyl poisoning.
They deserve justice. For parents like them, we MUST pass the HALT Fentanyl Act.

Today marks three years since the original public health emergency declaration.
Our country has been through a lot in those 3 years, but it’s time to get back to normal.
It’s time to give power back to the people. 🇺🇸

The 'rush to green' agenda puts the U.S. at risk of falling victim to Europe's same fate: dangerously reliant on foreign sources to meet baseload energy needs.

My heart is with the victims of yet another cowardly attack on a Jewish synagogue today in Jerusalem.
This was a deliberate act of terrorism - carried out on Holocaust Remembrance Day - and must be condemned in the strongest terms.

H.R. 21: Passed the House ✅
It provides a path towards making energy more affordable and reliable by preserving the SPR’s vital and central purpose — to provide the oil supplies Americans need during true emergencies. My full statement ↓

Today, I spoke in support of Chair 's Strategic Production Response Act, which holds the Biden Administration - and future Administrations - accountable for misusing America's emergency petroleum stockpile. 📺⬇️

Here’s what the Left won't tell you about H.R. 21:
has drained the SPR—one of our most important energy & national security assets—by more than 40% in two years.
H.R. 21 would prevent the SPR from being abused as an election-year gimmick to temporarily manipulate prices.

The President has turned a longtime bipartisan strategic asset into a political tool to cover up the consequences—unaffordable energy costs—of his failed rush-to-green agenda.

Our petroleum reserve is one of best supply tools we have to protect Americans from disruptions that spike gas prices.
House Republicans want that solution off the table.

FACT CHECK: H.R. 21 would have NO effect on DOE’s emergency authorities.
It would only apply to “non-emergency” SPR sales. If the President declares an emergency resulting from an energy supply disruption, the Secretary of Energy would have full authority to utilize the SPR.

FALSE.
You've already drained the SPR by 40% with no real plan for refilling it.
The SPR cannot protect against "disruptions" if you empty it, Mr. President.

Draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is not a serious path toward energy independence or lower costs for consumers.
Republicans are advancing common sense solutions to refill the SPR & unleash domestic energy.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve was created for weather events & national security emergencies.
Yet Joe Biden has depleted the SPR to levels not seen since 1984—all for political benefit.
House GOP is fighting to ensure he has a plan to refill the SPR & unleash domestic energy.

Depleting U.S. emergency fuel supplies - without a serious plan to boost production and replenish the reserves - leaves both our ENERGY SECURITY and NATIONAL SECURITY vulnerable.

FACT: drained the SPR to its lowest level since 1984.
FACT: The Biden Admin has no real plan to refill the SPR.
FACT: HR 21 requires 'non-emergency' SPR drawdowns to be paired w/ plans to boost production.
FACT: HR 21 has no effect on DOE’s emergency authorities.

By releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, @POTUS lowered gas prices for families.
House Republicans want to restrict the ability to use the Strategic Petroleum Reserve – which would worsen shortages in times of crisis and deprive Americans of relief at the pump.
