In July 2022, Kayla Hamilton, an American, was sexually assaulted and murdered in Maryland by a 16-year-old alien, MS-13 gang member from El Salvador.

It is clear that the Department's student loan forgiveness policies are unfair to Americans who did not go to college or that paid back their loans.

I thank both of my friends from Texas. What an incredible job they have done so far in communicating that the swamp's compromise NDAA is, indeed, woke, weaponized, and wrong for America. Why, you may ask. It is because during backroom…

My colleague, the former majority leader on the Democrat side, just reminded us of our single subject rule that our Speaker cosponsored back in 2015. That is the current rule of the House, and yet my Democrat colleague wants us to violate…
