Nothing to see here. That’s the message Washington Democrats are trying to sell the American people when it comes to the situation on the border. But as Americans know full-well, the border is anything but secure. And they know exactly what created the chaos: one-party Democrat rule of Congress and the White House. Whether it’s refusing to build the wall or getting rid of President Donald Trump’s effective border policies, every action by the Left has only inflamed the crisis. As a result, our b... READ MORE
It’s nearly impossible for working families to get through a single day without feeling the pain of President Joe Biden’s economic crisis. Families are struggling to put food on the table because grocery costs have risen 17.4% since Biden took the oath of office. Gas prices are so high that Americans are paying thousands of dollars more a year to fill up the tank. On top of that, millions of families are struggling to afford to keep their lights on because utility costs are through the roof. So ... READ MORE
America has faced crisis after crisis ever since Washington Democrats took control of the White House and Congress. Families are struggling with the highest consumer prices in 40 years, our communities are plagued with violent crime and deadly illegal drugs, and our freedoms are under attack like never before. In other words, one-party Democrat rule of Washington has been a complete disaster for families. But although these are troubling times for America, a tremendous opportunity lies ahead for...

What do federal prisoners, Japanese citizens, and illegal immigrants have in common? They all received billions of your tax dollars in federal stimulus checks from the $2 trillion American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) that liberals in Washington passed under one-party Democrat rule last year. You’re probably wondering how on earth could federal prisoners – including the Boston Marathon Bomber – have received stimulus checks that were paid for by your hard-earned tax dollars. But this is the kind of ab... READ MORE
Farmers in southern Missouri produce some of the highest quality agriculture products found anywhere in the world, from soybeans grown in the Bootheel to cattle raised in the rolling foothills. As a fourth-generation owner of a family farm right here in southern Missouri, I know how hard farmers and ranchers work to produce the feed, fuel, and fiber that’s sold across the world. But I also know that there are many challenges that come with owning and operating a farm. Every year, I visit ranches... READ MORE
From the moment President Joe Biden was sworn in, Washington Democrats have been on a non-stop spending spree to grow government and force their political agenda on Americans. As a result, working-class families are increasingly seeing their way of life buried by Washington bureaucrats who have been empowered by one-party Democrat rule in the White House and Congress, driven by their explosive new spending, taxes, and debt. Thanks to policies enacted since Biden took the Oath of Office, the fede... READ MORE
It’s getting harder to watch the news or flip through a newspaper without getting outraged over all of the insanity coming out of Washington. Thanks to the Left’s disastrous leadership, our border is in chaos, the cost of living is the highest it’s been in 40 years, and energy costs are so high that nearly 1 in 6 Americans are behind on their utility bills. And with November just around the corner, President Joe Biden and Washington Democrats are going into overdrive with their desperate panderi... READ MORE
The Missouri State Fair is typically a celebration of Missouri’s agriculture, with farmers and craft makers showing off the latest advances in their field. But while I was at the Missouri State Fair earlier this month, the topic getting all the attention was Washington Democrats’ ridiculously named Inflation Reduction Act, a $745 billion spending bill packed full of handouts for the wealthy and big corporations. In our conversations it was immediately clear that Washington Democrats failed in th... READ MORE
Americans of all political stripes have learned over the years to dread three letters of the alphabet: I-R-S. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is a fearsome government agency with an incredibly disturbing history of abusing its power. Under President Obama, senior career officials in the agency were overtly targeting conservatives for their political beliefs, and under President Biden the agency engaged in leaking highly sensitive taxpayer information to help advance Biden’s tax increases. Thi... READ MORE
Last week, the Department of Labor’s inflation report confirmed what American families already know all too well: inflation remains at a 40-year high. Over the last 19 months of one-party Democrat rule in Washington, hardworking American families have been crushed by President Biden’s policies. Over that time, real wages have gone down by 4.5%, interest rates continue to climb, our economy is in a recession, and sky-high inflation – up 13.7% since President Biden took office - is costing Missour...
