Democrats' Reckless Policies Cause Inflation to Hit New Record in March


The Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key inflation index, hit 8.5% in March. This is its highest rate in four decades. Since Joe Biden became president, inflation has increased every single month and shows no signs of slowing down. The American people can’t afford the Democrats’ reckless policies that are causing this skyrocketing inflation.



 


The Congressional Art Competition


Every year, I am amazed by the creativity and skill that comes out of the Tenth District Congressional Art Competition. This year, I look forward to continuing this wonderful tradition and seeing the submissions from the Tenth District’s most talented art students. Hilleary Wray from Newton-Conover High School won the 2021 Tenth District Congressional Art Competition. Her piece “Innocence” has been displayed in the U.S. Capitol over the past year. Check it out below. If you or someone you know would like to compete in the 2022 Congressional Art Competition click here.

Fox 46


This week, I was sanctioned by Russia along with many of my colleagues in Congress. I consider these sanctions a badge of honor. Putin’s invasion of Ukraine was an act of evil and I will always be proud to stand up to Putin and the Russian regime while also defending democracy around the world.



DEA warns of 'nationwide spike' in fentanyl-related mass-overdose deaths, as border crisis rages

Fox News


The Biden administration’s reckless decision to end Title 42, one of our strongest tools to deter illegal immigration, comes as the DEA is warning of a nationwide spike in fentanyl-related mass-overdose events as a result of record high amounts of fentanyl being trafficked across our southern border. The Biden administration’s open border policies are killing Americans.
