We knew in 2015 that government overreach into every stream and puddle on our property was extreme. I commend the EPA for reworking this rule in a way that sets boundaries on the federal government’s jurisdiction. I trust that states and local property owners can steward their water resources better than bureaucrats in Washington, D.C.
Seventy-seven years ago we lost many good men, women, and children in one of the worst attacks on our nation's soil. Our naval base at Pearl Harbor lay in ruin.
And then we rose again. With freedom and liberty as our tailwind, we fought on two fronts for a world more peaceful and secure.
I pray that we still fight with such resolve for freedom and liberty in this nation, and in this world. This is the American way.

‪I’m saddened to hear about the passing of former President George HW Bush. His record is one of selfless service to this country, and for that we all thank him. As he and Barbara are now reunited, we keep the rest of his family in our prayers. #41 ‬
