The Trump administration is making it easier for predatory schools to cheat students by cutting the teams responsible for stopping financial aid fraud.
These revelations make real the concerns that we have previously raised about your complete ‘disregard for the strategic, legal, and moral imperative to minimize civilian harm.’
Although a federal judge has enjoined the slush fund, there are other plans to undermine the American justice system to pay out January 6 rioters, including those convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers.
We urge you to reject any efforts by the Department of Justice (DOJ) to compensate January 6 rioters for their crimes and to commit to vigorously defending American taxpayers.
According to reporting, approximately 600 January 6 rioters have filed claims under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), expecting to receive millions of dollars in compensation for alleged injuries they sustained because they were…
Yosemite National Park is the crown jewel of the National Park System, yet overcrowding, vehicle congestion, limited parking, and long lines have long been issues that diminish what should be a world class experience.
The increased visitation we have seen without the reservation system, mixed with the reduction in staff and resources over the past year, leaves us deeply concerned about how the Park will be able to manage visitation safely and…
State legislative processes vary significantly, and in some cases operate on biennial cycles. A flexible, ongoing certification framework is necessary to ensure that States can participate meaningfully over time and that innovation and…

“America is the greatest nation in the world. Not by a little bit, but by a whole lot. For 250 years, the United States has stood as a beacon of freedom, opportunity, perseverance, and innovation. This American spirit is alive and well…
We’re proud to have secured this funding that will modernize transportation, ease congestion, support economic growth, and create a stronger infrastructure system that can help Virginians move quickly and safely.
From passenger rail services to roads and waterways, countless travelers and goods move through the Commonwealth every day, and Virginia commuters and businesses deserve infrastructure that can keep up.
The passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was a major turning point in our country that finally gave many previously excluded people of color real access to the polls.
When we make sure no community is left behind, America wins, South Carolina wins, and the American Dream once again becomes a reality for millions of families.
I am confident that through the partnership with local and federal leaders, these new designations will continue to bring billions of dollars in private investment to overlooked communities in South Carolina and across the country.
I am proud of the work done to make Opportunity Zones a reality, but I am even prouder of the lives changed, communities strengthened, and small businesses revived as an outcome of this innovative tool.
America will always stand as a beacon for faith, freedom, and religious liberty. Every human has a right to praise his or her creator and no nation on God’s green Earth can take that away.
