Two-thirds of funding bill goes to national security, law enforcement
Passing yet another CR would have continued to waste money and weaken our military. Shortly before Christmas, Congress passed major legislation to keep the government open through fiscal year 2023. Separate appropriations bills to fund government departments should have been passed months ago but were prevented from coming to the floor by the Democratic leadership.…

McCarthy’s politically expensive election as House Speaker leaves a hard road forward
It was the most protracted battle to elect the U.S. House Speaker since 1859.

Process to elect new Speaker of the U.S. House worked as it should
Individual lawmakers have regained a measure of influence that hadn’t existed under the previous majority. Thirteen times between the 1st U.S. Congress and the 36th did the vote for Speaker of the House of Representatives go to multiple rounds of balloting. That means one-third of the time the Speaker vote was contested, whether due to…

A Calling, the Ultimate Sacrifice and the Responsibility of a Grateful Society
A reflection upon and recommitment to appreciating law enforcement. A little over a week before Christmas, two men were murdered in Mississippi. One was the loss of a husband, father and grandfather, and the other was the loss of a son, future spouse, and beloved friend. Contrary to most murders, these killings occurred when these…

Good things are happening in Mississippi
