I was honored to join Deputy Secretary Vaden today in meeting with farmers across Michigan's 5th District to discuss how we can provide them with the necessary tools to maintain the world’s safest and most abundant food supply.

This bipartisan legislation includes real solutions that will alleviate housing shortages and make life more affordable for all Americans.

By reducing burdensome regulatory barriers and allowing banks to freely deploy funding, we can increase housing supply and lower costs for hardworking Michigan families.

Americans deserve access to affordable housing, and the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is transformational legislation that will help restore the American Dream of homeownership," said Rep. Walberg.

Every family deserves the freedom to choose the school that’s right for their child, including a faith-based school.

Michigan residents like them will continue to play an integral role in driving America forward and helping us preserve the traditional values and spirit of freedom that have defined our nation.

I hope that these families' visits to our nation's capital help deepen their appreciation for the resilience, ideals, and aspirations that have carried our nation through 250 years.

As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of our nation's founding, it is important to remember the freedoms our nation was founded on and the values that continue to unite us.

It was an honor to spend time with families from across southern Michigan and join them in reflecting on America's rich history and storied heritage.

The legislation also included over $280 billion in taxpayer savings, which I ushered through the Education and Workforce Committee as chair.

I am pleased to see the Trump administration make this targeted investment in Stevensville, which will make a difference for our environment and encourage local job growth, providing more opportunities for hardworking Michigan families.

The Brownfields Program has delivered millions of dollars to Michigan communities to help with economic development projects.

America's golden age is just around the corner, thanks to policies like the Working Families Tax Cuts that are putting money back where it belongs: in the pockets of hardworking families in Michigan.

Over the past year, this historic legislation has delivered real relief for the American people with policies like no tax on tips, overtime, and Social Security helping Americans keep more of their hard-earned money.

Last July, House Republicans passed the Working Families Tax Cuts, which provided the single largest tax cut in American history.

I am proud to see the House pass this bipartisan legislation to increase coordination within the Department of Energy to make our grid more resilient and ensure Americans have access to reliable, affordable energy.

With an increase in attacks on our critical energy infrastructure, strengthening our cyber defense and emergency response capabilities in the energy sector has never been more important.

Our energy infrastructure powers industries, drives innovation, and sustains daily life for hundreds of millions of Americans.

Unfortunately, radical gender ideology bolstered by policies pushed under the Biden-Harris administration chipped away at Title IX protections.

Since COPPA was enacted in 1998, the online world has changed in ways few could have imagined.

I encourage students from across Michigan’s 5th District to participate in this year’s challenge, and I look forward to seeing the innovative projects they create.

The Congressional App Challenge provides students with an opportunity to strengthen their STEM skills, explore computer science, and showcase their creativity.

“Technology and innovation continue to play an increasingly important role in our economy and everyday lives,” said Rep. Walberg.

His service helped ensure that future generations could live in a nation defined by freedom, and I am privileged to have helped ensure that he received this long-overdue recognition.

The 250th anniversary since our founding reminds us that each chapter of our national story was written by people like Corporal Burnham who made extraordinary sacrifices so that our nation could endure and thrive.
