Washington can be frustrating—but even with all the noise, we are still able to come together and get real, bipartisan work done that makes life better for everyday Americans. This past week, I proudly voted YES on 19 bipartisan bills that do just that. These proposals help small businesses, protect consumers, strengthen national security, and modernize how our government works.

Some of the most important care a veteran can receive doesn’t come from a hospital–it comes from family. Every day, spouses, parents, and loved ones across the country are stepping up to care for veterans who’ve come home with serious injuries. Many of them leave their jobs and put their lives on hold to provide the full-time care that veterans need.

These caregivers deserve support for such a selfless undertaking–not a maze of bureaucracy and red tape. 

Small businesses are the backbone of our communities. They’re where innovation begins, where neighbors support neighbors, and where the American Dream lives. But too often, red tape, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and unfair competition get in the way of their success. That’s why I was proud to support 10 bills on the floor of the House of Representatives this week—each one focused on empowering small business owners, cutting through federal red tape, and leveling the playing field.

When an American signs the dotted line to join the military, they do so with the understanding that Washington will keep its promises. One of those promises is the G.I. Bill – a commitment to help service members and their families pursue educational opportunities.

The people of mid-Michigan sent me to Congress to do the hard work necessary to lower the cost of living, secure our border, and unleash American energy. Unfortunately, while I’ve been working hard to deliver on those promises, Democrats have been trying to scare people into believing the sky is falling when it comes to H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, that we are working on in Congress.
