Over 200 Democrats joined every House Republican in voting for the Ratepayer Protection Act to protect hardworking families from rising costs. Unfortunately, Senate Democrats thought it was more important to make a political statement rather than support their constituents. foxnews.com/politics/dems-ki…

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’re raising awareness about the importance of early detection and screening. As a physician, I know how important it is to catch breast cancer as early as possible. That’s why I led the EARLY Act, legislation that expands breast cancer education, awareness, and screening access for young women across America. I’ll keep fighting to make early detection more accessible to every woman.

Every woman deserves a fighting chance. This month and every month, I remain committed to raising awareness about the importance of early detection and screenings. I will continue working to pass legislation that expands access to lifesaving screenings and supports women and families facing breast cancer. 💗

In our rural communities across Iowa, manufacturing is a vital part of our economy, supporting good-paying jobs and strong communities. I’m proud to support the hardworking Iowans who make, build, and produce the products our country depends on every day. Happy Manufacturing Month! 🧑🏼‍🏭

The House passed the Stop Insider Trading Act to ban stock trading by members of Congress. ❌ Senate Democrats blocked it. The House passed the Ratepayer Protection Act 417-3 to ensure Data Centers pay their own way and don’t drive up your electricity bills. ❌ Senate Democrats blocked it. Democrats love to talk about tackling corruption and affordability. But when it came time to do something about either, they stood in the way. Iowans deserve better than this.

"We've lost our manufacturing in Lee County over the course of the last 30-40 years. It's created sort of a vacuum." Lee County has been abandoned for far too long. That's why I fought to secure the historic steel plant that will bring 1,700 new good paying jobs, and help restore Lee County as a manufacturing powerhouse in the region.

🚨 @HouseCommerce just released an 84-page staff report detailing how fraudsters have been stealing from Medicare and Medicaid in states across the country, and what can be done to stop it in its tracks. While Democrats have turned a blind eye, Republicans are fighting to protect the Americans who need these programs the most. Read the full report here ⬇️ d1dth6e84htgma.cloudfront.ne…
