Dear Neighbor,

This week was a busy one in Washington, D.C. as the budget reconciliation process continued with the passage of the House budget resolution. Read more below about how we're working to secure permanent tax cuts, no taxes on tips, and cuts in wasteful spending. The House and Senate continue working together with committees to move the process forward. Stay tuned for updates. 

We introduced two important pieces of legislation this week—the Charlotte Woodward Organ Transplant Discrimination Prevention Act and the Defund NPR Act. You can read about both below and the stories behind each. 

We also shared photos from our district visits last week, including the Marion/Ocala CEP February exCEPtional Morning event and a visit to Kimberly's Center of Marion County. Kimberly's Center for Child Protection in Marion County is a truly incredible place where the smallest victims in our community receive quality and timely care to heal from the trauma of child abuse. The story and the staff are nothing short of incredible and I'm grateful to our community partners for their commitment and dedication to supporting our youth. 

The House returns to session next week for another busy week, including President Trump's first State of the Union address of his second term on Tuesday, March 4. We'll be sharing what we hope the president discusses during his speech and look forward to showing the behind-the-scenes moments leading up to the big night at the Capitol. 

With all that's happening this new 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 X, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

For the Republic,

Congresswoman Kat Cammack                                                                                Proudly Representing Florida's Third Congressional District

Budget Resolution Passes The House

On Wednesday, we took a solid next step toward delivering on our promises for the American people in crafting a fiscally responsible budget that cuts wasteful spending and reins in out-of-control regulations that have run rampant for too long.

Together, we're working to secure permanent tax cuts, no taxes on tips, Social Security, or overtime, $1.5T cuts in spending, and my flagship REINS Act to stop the regulatory regime.

We still have a lot of work to do with the Senate moving forward and will continue to fight for the American people.

Introducing The Charlotte Woodward Organ Transplant Discrimination Prevention Act

Monday was a special day on Capitol Hill because we proudly introduced the Charlotte Woodward Organ Transplant Discrimination Prevention Act for the 119th Congress.

This bill ensures that no individual is denied an organ transplant due to a disability, including Down syndrome. Those who have followed our office for a while may remember the special story of our own Ocala-based Sarmiento family, whose son Baby Zion was denied a lifesaving heart transplant in infancy due to his Down syndrome diagnosis in 2021. No family should ever endure what the Sarmiento's have, which is why this bill is so important.

Thank you to the bill's namesake—Miss Charlotte Woodward—for championing this cause and serving as inspiration after her own successful heart transplant over a decade ago proved that individuals with disabilities are just as valuable and worthy as anyone else. 

Introducing The Defund NPR Act

This week I proudly introduced the Defund NPR Act! With Senator Banks in the Senate, we're taking a stand against NPR receiving federal funds amid its radical liberal bias that fails to cover objective truth in news. 

Whether it was the Hunter Biden laptop story the NPR team failed to accurately report or the assassination attempt against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh that NPR never spilled ink to cover, it's clear they shouldn't receive federal funds. 

Our Top Five Accomplishments

We work for you, and as our boss, we believe it's important to deliver on our work for you every single day. Accountability and transparency at all levels of government are critical, which is why we wanted to show you our top five accomplishments on your behalf from last week.

Kimberly's Center In Ocala

I had the opportunity to visit Kimberly's Center for Child Protection in Marion County, a truly incredible place where the smallest victims in our community receive quality and timely care to heal from the trauma of child abuse. The team at Kimberly's Center are incredible advocates for our youth and work to support over 1,200 children each year.

By providing services including abuse diagnosis, forensic interviews, crisis intervention, trauma counseling, medical exams, and more, Kimberly's Center advocates compassionately respond to help children heal. The visit was an inspiring reminder of the critical work happening in our communities to support our youth. Thank you for hosting us and showing us the amazing work you do.

February exCEPtional Mornings

Great to be with the team at the Ocala CEP for the February exCEPtional Mornings breakfast! I provided updates from Washington and heard from local business leaders about the latest and greatest plans for rapidly-growing Ocala and Marion County. I always appreciate the opportunity to engage with our community and am so grateful for the 300+ attendees at these monthly events.

Thank you to the Chamber and Economic Partnership for hosting our team!

Florida Peanut Federation Annual Banquet In Lake City

Team Kat was proud to celebrate our amazing peanut producers at this year's Florida Peanut Federation annual meeting and banquet in Lake City! After the difficult last two years with hurricanes affecting our peanut crops, it's important to recognize the contributions of our producers and the work they do to keep our state and nation supplied with their delicious peanuts. Thank you, peanut producers!
