Week of July 15, 2024
A July Legislative Update

Dear Neighbor,

Only two legislative weeks remain in July until the House is out for August recess. During those busy weeks in August, we'll be all over the district, visiting businesses, manufacturing facilities, health care practices, and more. We look forward to seeing you and your families as we relish the time back in the best congressional district in the country. 

This week, we wanted to share a few important bills we've co-sponsored over the last several weeks that affect our veterans, farmers, and all American taxpayers. You can take a look at each of those bills below to learn more about them. 

We hope you have a great weekend and look forward to sharing more from Washington, D.C. next week as July comes to a close. 

With all that's happening this Congress, it is my greatest honor to represent you and hear from you about the issues that matter most. You can read below about what we've been up to this week, and as always, you can stay up to date with us here, on our website, and on XFacebookInstagram, and YouTube.

For the Republic,

Honoring Our Vietnam Veterans Who Served In Dustoff Crews

Image

I am proud to co-sponsor H.R. 1015, the Dustoff Crews of the Vietnam War Congressional Gold Medal Act. Dustoff crews performed aeromedical evacuations from May 1962 to March 1973, proving to be the difference between life and death for wounded personnel.

Being a Dustoff Crewmember in Vietnam meant a 1 in 3 chance of being wounded or killed. They constantly operated in complete darkness, in bad weather, over mountainous terrain, and braved intense enemy fire.

I'm pleased to join Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers and Rep. Derek Kilmer in this important bill to award these heroes their due.


Defending Our Dairy Farmers

Image

I'm a proud co-sponsor of the DAIRY PRIDE Act, a bill that prohibits the sale of any food that uses the market name of a dairy product (such as milk, yogurt, or cream cheese) unless the food (1) is the milk of a hooved animal, (2) is derived from such milk, or (3) contains such milk as a primary ingredient.

We're tremendously proud of our dairy products in Florida and support their recognition as what they are: true dairy products.


Protecting Medicaid

Image

I was glad to join my colleagues in signing onto H.R. 7014, the Protect Medicaid Act. The bill prohibits federal payment under Medicaid for the administrative costs of providing health benefits to noncitizens who are ineligible for Medicaid based on their immigration status. American taxpayers shouldn't be on the hook for the health care of those in the country illegally.

Enjoy Your Weekend!

It was great seeing so many folks along the July 4th parade routes this month. We loved seeing all of the red, white, and blue out in force and with enthusiasm. 

From all of us at Team Kat, we hope you have a great weekend!
