Weekly Script December 4th, 2022 WEEKLY SC℞IPT Friends, Thank you for taking time to read my weekly update. Below you'll learn more about what I'm doing in Washington to support Iowans in the second district. Visit My Website Floor Speeches This week I spoke on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to address President Biden's energy crisis. Iowans have felt the effect of President Biden’s policies. With temperatures reaching 17 degrees this week, Iowans have turned on the heat to stay warm during the winter months. Unfortunately, under the Biden administration’s policies Iowans are struggling to pay their heating bills. According to the National Energy Assistance Directors Association, diesel prices could top $6 per gallon this winter. Struggling families cannot afford President Biden’s energy policies. I want to reiterate my calls to President Biden to unleash domestic energy and look towards Iowa as a framework for an “any of the above approach” to lower costs for Americans.

Speaking to residents of the Second District allows me to stay informed of what is going on in their communities and what I can do to help. This week I met with iJAG students from across Iowa to hear about how the program benefits students and schools across the state. Legislative Roundup This week I joined Representatives Kathy Manning (NC-06) and Representative Chris Smith (NJ-04) in a letter to President Biden urging his administration to ensure government agencies are coordinating ways to combat antisemitism in the United States. I also joined Representative Elise Stefanik (NY-21) in cosponsoring the CBP Behavioral Health Act, which would require Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to hire behavioral health providers and create a comprehensive behavioral health program. This would enable CBP personnel to access resources needed to continue to protect the United States.
