Antisemitism has no place in America, including on college campuses.

These aren’t protests.

It isn’t peaceful.

It is a direct attack on the Jewish community.

The Department of Education must take immediate action to punish schools that fail to protect their students from

No student should fear their safety on a college campus. The continued acts of violence and antisemitism across the country are despicable and we must hold these higher education institutions accountable for their failure to protect Jewish students.

Vicki and I are praying for the family and friends of Deputy Tobin Bolter. We are grateful for Deputy Bolter’s service, selflessness, and sacrifice to the state of Idaho.

I do not support ranked choice voting. This sounds like a solution looking for a problem that doesn’t exist. The system we’ve got works. I’ve learned in life when you’ve got something like that, don’t mess with it.

Nuclear energy will power our future. I'm proud to support Idaho National Lab with the Advanced Nuclear Caucus and on the Energy Committee to showcase the Gem State's continued work on nuclear innovation and cybersecurity.

President Biden’s radical green agenda, including calls to breach the four lower Snake River dams that provide clean, reliable energy to thousands of homes across the Northwest, is an assault on Americans’ way of life. Make no mistake, the dams are here to stay.

The Biden admin’s war on life led to veterans care facilities wrongfully providing abortions. American taxpayer dollars fund veterans’ care, so they have a right to have full transparency regarding just how many abortions the Biden admin has enabled through this deadly policy.

This admin creates as many ridiculous hurdles as possible to restrict law-abiding gun owners’ access to affordable guns & ammo. The Ammunition Supply Chain Act forces transparency from the Biden admin about the status of our domestic ammo supply chain.

The SEC's climate disclosure rule prioritizes the Biden admin’s green-agenda over Idaho’s business owners & investors. This CRA resolution pushes back on the admin’s blatant federal overreach & protects economic opportunity, consumers from high costs, & companies from burdensome

Idaho’s forest products industry supports rural economies, reduces wildfire risk, and produces high-quality building materials. With the Mass Timber Federal Buildings Act, Idaho timber would be a prioritized construction material in federal buildings.

Responsible and informed financial decisions daily create an important base for Idahoans’ long and short-term economic health—lessens the federal government also should learn.

This Financial Literacy Month is a great time to evaluate your family’s finances and look for ways to

Idaho’s community colleges provide vital hands-on training and education best suited to support the Gem State’s workforce, small businesses, and economy. This April, as Community College Month, is a great opportunity to thank these institutions for their dedication to continued

Detain and deport is the law. Under the Biden admin, it’s been replaced with catch and release.

We will continue to see this crisis at the southern border as long as President Biden refuses to enforce our immigration laws.

President Biden & Secretary Mayorkas refuse to enforce existing immigration laws. As a result, 9.4 MILLION illegal immigrants have entered the US through the southern border.

We need strong immigration enforcement and we need it now.

President Biden’s war on American-made energy knows no end. We should be making use of our abundant natural resources, not hamstringing them.

How many times do we have to tell President Biden he doesn’t have the authority to “forgive” student loans?  He cannot do this. Only Congress can, and I will not let that happen because this isn’t forgiveness. It’s redistributing debt from people who agreed to pay their own
