Giulia, Cecelia, Rese and I would like to wish everyone in the Tenth District a very Happy Independence Day! Independence Day is one of my favorite holidays of the year as we celebrate the birth of our nation and the values that make this country great. On this sacred day in 1776 our forefathers came together and declared our independence. As you celebrate with family and friends today, please take a moment to remember those who continue to protect these freedoms around the world and right here at home. Today, and every day, I am thankful for our American troops, police officers, and firefighters who make these celebrations possible.

Today, Chief Deputy Whip Patrick McHenry (NC-10), Vice Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, released the following statement on the Supreme Court's ruling that the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) system of using in-house judges to decide conflicts is unconstitutional: "Under the Obama Administration, the SEC’s administrative law judge proceedings were unfair, biased, and unconstitutional.
