I am proposing rule changes for the next Congress to ensure that our rules are addressing some of the systemic barriers that make this body more representative of the American people.

I believe this proposed rule change will make Congress a more professional body, and make the executive branch more accountable to the legislature.

The current prohibition on proxy voting forces pregnant Members and Members who have recently welcomed a new child, to choose between taking care of their newborn or representing their constituents.

IHS healthcare providers need cultural competence to best serve their patients.

The Biden-Harris administration hasn't been shy about its distaste for American workers who provide affordable and reliable energy to the rest of the country. This administration cares more about filling the pockets of OPEC, Venezuela, and…
