Government has no business imposing arbitrary and burdensome regulations on the financial freedom of the American people. Existing law already protects consumers and punishes fraudsters, we do not need a separate set of rules for cryptocurrency.

After several years prosecuting criminals, David returned to work in and ultimately take over the family business which he runs to this day. As a small business owner, David has seen firsthand how the Biden economy has failed working Americans and driven up costs on everything. In Congress, he will stop Joe Biden’s disastrous inflation-fueling agenda and work to cut taxes for Ohio families.

In Washington, I’ll fight to secure the border by finishing President Trump’s wall, increasing funding and resources for Border Patrol officers, and deploying military personnel when necessary. Then prosecute, to the fullest extent of the law, criminals and cartels wreaking havoc on our country.

The Second Amendment is clear and unequivocal. Without this right, we cede our ability to protect ourselves to the government and give up our right to fight back against tyranny. I will always vote to protect it.

If we don’t rein in spending fast, soon our country will be owned and operated by China, which seems to be fine with the Left. As your next representative, I will author legislation that requires Congress to balance the budget before they get paid, and forces them to only spend within our means to help us regain control of our future. Part of restoring our economy is easing the burden of inflation on working families by cutting their tax burden and bringing American jobs back to America. Unshackling America’s energy sector will go a long way toward accomplishing both. We need to end the stigma on fossil fuels, and lean into nuclear energy.

We must end the woke indoctrination of our kids. The massive uptick in mental health issues that our children are suffering from can be traced in large part to what is happening in our schools. The current curriculum in public schools pits students against each other on the basis of race, misrepresenting our past, and teaching kids to hate our great country.

It singles out groups based on inherited traits, and terrifies young children with apocalyptic tales of humanity’s imminent demise due to climate change. I’ll end the madness by defunding and dismantling the failed experiment called the Department of Education, restoring parental rights, and expanding school choice. It’s time we put parents first instead of the intentionally destructive agenda being pushed by radical liberal D.C. bureaucrats and teachers’ unions.

Every numbered U.S. House roll call published by the Clerk during the configured service window is reconciled through the member's exact Bioguide ID. Clerk XML through 2002 does not publish Bioguide IDs, so those rows require a candidate-specific official House identity and service bridge plus one unique exact published-name, party, and state tuple. A published roll without an identity-safe row is retained as an explicit source omission and is not labeled as a vote or absence. Voice votes and other actions without member-level roll calls are outside this archive.
Official filings may be amended after publication.
