Democrats Vote Against Honoring Charlie Kirk

Following this summer's tragic attack on lawmakers in Minnesota that resulted in the murder of Melissa Hortman and her husband, the House of Representatives voted UNANIMOUSLY to pass a resolution condemning the attacks and calling for the rejection of political violence. 

This week, the House passed a resolution calling for the same thing in the name of Charlie Kirk. And yet, 58 Democrats voted against this resolution, another 38 voted present, and 22 did not vote at all. This resolution was no different from the one I easily voted for earlier this year, and I am so disappointed in my Democrat colleagues that they are not willing to put their political views aside to show the country that we are a body unified against political violence.

Marking Up Legislation to Protect Patients, Seniors, and Taxpayers

This week, the House Ways and Means Committee held a full-day markup for a number of health care, tax administration, and Social Security bills. 

These are common-sense, bipartisan bills that help the American people. They are working to provide multi-cancer early detection screenings for seniors, improve hospital care at home, and give seniors quicker access to breakthrough medical products. They protect taxpayers from government abuse. And, they help Americans maximize their Social Security benefits and fight identity theft. 

Here is a list of all the legislation we marked up this week:

• H.R. 842, the “Nancy Gardner Sewell Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act”. 
• H.R. 4313, “Hospital Inpatient Services Modernization Act”.
• H.R. 5347, “Health Care Efficiency Through Flexibility Act”.
• H.R. 5343, the “Ensuring Patient Access to Critical Breakthrough Products Act”.
• H.R. 5349, the “Tax Court Improvement Act”
• H.R. 5346, the “Fair and Accountable IRS Reviews Act”
• H.R. 5284, the “Claiming Age Clarity Act”.
• H.R. 5345, the “Improving Social Security’s Service to Victims of Identity Theft Act”.
• H.R. 5348, the “Social Security Child Protection Act of 2025”.

One of the many reasons I'm honored to be a part of the Ways and Means Committee is because I get so many opportunities to work on legislation that directly improves the lives of American citizens.
