Congressional Issues
Information related to Issues concerning Congress itself.
The 112th Congress has pledged to be a challenge to the status quo and I look forward to joining my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to take on the tough issues facing our country. Among our first votes was to cut our own budget and to pass rules that new spending should be paired with spending cuts. The voters of the 8th District sent a loud and clear message that they expect the government to live within its means and for Congress to be responsible to the people.
My goal is that this office will be the most open and accessible of any in Congress. I am your voice to the federal government and I take that responsibility very seriously. If there is ever anything I can do for you, or if there is anything I need to know, please do not hesitate to contact me.
