Managing our national debt and bringing our nation back to a balanced budget are the most important issues we face in Congress today. I am proud to have stood with the Blue Dog Democrats Coalition on the bipartisan H.R. 4053, Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Improvement Act (IPERIA). Today’s passage is a great step towards working together to find progress for the future.Sanford D. Bishop, Jr. shared a link.
Signed onto a letter urging House Leadership to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act before the end of the 112th Congress. A strong bipartisan bill is needed to ensure that women, children, and families all across the United States are protected from domestic violence.- LikesSee All

The Rev. J. H. Flakes was truly a giant redwood that has fallen in the forest. He made a tremendous impact on this community. He was a true example of courage, of perseverance, starting from humble beginnings and ultimately determined to be all that he could be and make the greatest contribution through the ministry of Jesus Christ. He will truly be missed.- ActivityDecemberPeople Who Like This31
