Even the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) recognizes that more audits are coming. They admitted as much on September 8, 2023. Since taking office more than two years ago, President Biden, his Administration, and Democrats in Congress have made it their mission to supercharge the IRS. Last year, Democrats in Congress passed the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” (IRA), which allocated $80…

I have long believed that Congress has a responsibility to the American people to “rein in” wasteful and excessive spending. Since joining Congress, I have not voted for a debt ceiling bill that did not include cuts or reforms to our spending practices. When House Republicans established the rules for the 118th Congress earlier this year, I worked to get the Holman Rule included in the…

When asked why he robbed banks, Willie Sutton, the notorious 1930s fugitive, famously retorted, “Because that’s where the money is.” Democrats in Congress took this advice and ran with it.

Like a horror movie monster seemingly finished off at the end returning for a sequel, the Democrat tax-and-spend reconciliation bill that once appeared dead has returned in the summer of 2022. Originally dubbed “Build Back Better,” this monster bill now goes by the “Inflation Reduction Act.” The text, however, shows that it does no such thing. Instead, it seeks to implement provisions…

John F. Kennedy said that “to govern is to choose.” The Democrats running Washington have had a hard time choosing lately. It should come as no surprise, then, that they have not done too well at governing, either. Instead of addressing the pressing issues our country faces like historic inflation, record-breaking numbers of illegal immigrants crossing the border, soaring energy costs,…
