Fellow Patriot,

I want to take this opportunity to extend my gratitude and appreciation for your continued support. It is the honor of a lifetime to serve you in the United States Congress, and I am deeply grateful for the trust you have placed in me to represent our community. Following the special election, our team immediately began working to ensure a smooth transition. We assumed office the very next day, are now fully staffed, and are actively engaged in both legislative work and constituent services. 

If we can ever be of service, please do not hesitate to reach out to my office at Patronis.House.Gov.

Earlier this month, I issued a letter to President Donald J. Trump inviting the President and the entire Trump family to participate in a ribbon-cutting ceremony in honor of the newly renamed Gulf of America. The U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 276 – The Gulf of America Act on May 8, which renames the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America and directs all federal agencies to update their documents and maps to reflect the name change. A formal naming ceremony would work to cement the “Gulf of America” into the fabric of American culture, be another win for the President's legacy, and provide the Panhandle with tremendous economic development opportunities for our tourism industry. Should they accept the invitation, I would be honored to host the President, the Trump Family, and the entire Trump team in the near future!

On May 22, the U.S. House of Representatives passed President Trump's "One, Big, Beautiful Bill." Thanks to the incredible leadership of Speaker Johnson and President Trump, the "One, Big, Beautiful Bill" Act will cement into law tax cuts for Americans across the board, hold the federal government accountable through fiscal responsibility, strengthen our borders to keep Americans safe, and provide a real chance for folks to work, raise a family, and live the American dream. I’m proud to have supported this historic legislation alongside my colleagues in the House and encourage its quick passage in the Senate. This "One, Big, Beautiful Bill" is a win for every hardworking American. Better days are ahead.

On June 5, I filed my first bill in Congress! The legislation is very simple – I asked my team to dust off the J6 hearings approach and orient it for Biden’s BIG LIE. I have always felt that transparency is the best disinfectant. The committee will conduct interviews, review documentation, and determine the actions appropriate to create better transparency in the federal government to hold those responsible accountable for undermining America’s democratic institutions. Some of the key questions to be answered by the Committee include the following: when did Biden’s cognitive abilities begin slipping away; what orders or decisions were made when Biden had reduced capacity; who knew of Biden’s cognitive infirmities, and when; and how long were these issues concealed from the American people?  And once we establish the facts, Congress can begin holding people accountable and unwinding whatever unconstitutional actions took place during the Big Lie.
