A member of the Republican Party, he has been active in various legislative efforts, particularly focusing on national security and foreign policy.

I believe at this stage the most practical approach is a highly specific no-fly zone.
As you've heard, these bombs are delivered simply by rolling them out of helicopters...
The American people deserve better. They deserve to feel safe when they travel on airplanes.
I am co-sponsoring H.R. 2750, the Improved Security Vetting for Aviation Workers Act, introduced by Chairman Katko.
As we stare down these threats, Congress and the American people need confidence in our defenses.
We cannot become complacent about the threat. We can and must improve our screening capabilities.
When I heard that 73 airport workers had ties to terrorism, when I got that news, well, first of all, I couldn't believe it.
Reports about TSA's performance have alarmed the American people and raised fears that bombs could pass through airport passenger screening.
I also strongly support H.R. 2770, the Keeping Our Travelers Safe and Secure Act, introduced by Ranking Member Rice.
That is why I have sponsored H.R. 2750, the Improved Security Vetting for Aviation Workers Act of 2015.
Recent reports about the TSA screening, in my view, are deeply disturbing and call into question some of the post-9/11 security measures we have worked hard to put in place.
