The IRS doesn't deserve the presumption it's going to do the right thing all the time.

My Democrat colleagues don't seem to care about the cost to small business. They're bewitched by the idea that the law created a magic money machine that will only extract dollars from the wealthy and large corporations, but their claims…

By all means we should debate whether some of these tax expenditures, such as the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction ought to exist.

If this isn't evidence of an overwhelmingly progressive federal tax system currently in place, I don't know what would be.

It's a disingenuous claim that's used as justification for pursuing historic expansion of federal spending.

Instead of throwing billions of dollars at the IRS enforcement, our constituents would much better be served by a customer service focus.

That's simply hogwash from my point of view.

My Democrat colleagues don't seem to care about the cost to small business.

The IRS doesn't deserve the presumption it's going to do the right thing all the time.

Those I would add, are almost certainly unconstitutional themselves.

I'm not OK with communities like the one I'm from, the Mon Valley of western Pennsylvania, being sacrificial lambs in the name of continued fossil fuel exploration.

Instead of raising taxes like my Democrat colleagues, we lowered taxes across the board.

When you enact bad policies, what do you expect? You get bad outcomes.

The President's economy and policies aren't the answer to that.

Experience shows us the best way to promote prosperity for all is through pro-growth policies.

This is a catastrophe that can only get larger and larger.

This is explicitly an open borders policy even though they don't want to admit it.

It's my hope, my wish, my prayer, that the Biden Administration will reverse course on this unacceptably abysmal record of border enforcement.

All Americans want America to be a place of refuge, but Americans of all leanings recognize that the ongoing crisis on the southern border is threatening our ability to give relief to true asylum seekers.

The unprecedented surge in illegal border crossings, and the ongoing crisis of the last two and a half years is now being felt everywhere across the country.

People are dying in cargo containers. Children, including babies, are being trafficked as commodities.

Tragically, as much as we would love to, America cannot be the safe harbor for every desperate, destitute and wandering soul in the world.

Over 100,000 people have died from fentanyl overdoses during the last year alone.

The cost of the border crisis is impacting every single American.

America is a generous country, welcoming to immigrants. It always has been, and I hope it always will be.
