| There is no greater threat to America than the $33 trillion dollars of debt that we’ve dumped onto our children and grandchildren.
As one of only eight, and the only new Member of Congress appointed to the new Budget The federal government’s irresponsible spending of Western North Carolinians’ hard-earned tax dollars is jeopardizing our nation’s security. With the FY24 Budget Resolution that I’ve been helping develop since February, we will “Reverse the Curse.” This resolution will reduce spending by $16 trillion and balance our budget within the next 10 years.

To reform unemployment benefits and promote Americans getting back to work, I introduced
At a time when businesses are already stretched thin, the Unemployment Integrity Act will require those who are claiming unemployment to show up to interviews and meaningfully engage in a job search. Come see the Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall
The Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall will be in Western North Carolina from November 9-12. This tremendous program gives Americans everywhere who might be unable to make the trip to Washington, DC the opportunity to remember and reflect on the lives of servicemembers lost during the Vietnam War in their own hometown. The wall will be open 24/7 at the Veterans Healing Farm in Hendersonville. For more information visit travelingwall.us/. With my warmest regards,

Committee Oversight Task Force, I look forward to rolling up my sleeves and using my business background to further take on one of our country’s most significant challenges.
Just like many Western North Carolinians, I’m looking forward to the House getting back to governing with new House Speaker Mike Johnson. Speaker Johnson has been a strong voice for the conservative cause and I’m proud to have cast my vote for him.
