Today, I joined Congressman Richard Neal and bipartisan members of Congress from Texas to discuss solutions to replace the unfair Windfall Elimination Provision with a fair, proportional formula that treats our teachers, firefighters and police officers equally and bases their Social Security benefits on their work life and career.
Thank you to the TRTA (Texas Retired Teachers Association) and the ATPE - Association of Texas Professional Educators for their support on this very important issue over the years.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported in its September Consumer Price Index that core inflation rose to a new 40-year high--which is terrible news for seniors and working families.
Nearly a year after President Biden promised Americans inflation had peaked, core inflation is now the highest on record in his presidency.
There’s no question President Biden’s so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ has failed American workers.

Main Street businesses continue to struggle with higher prices and there's no end in sight. Thanks to President Biden’s bungling of the economy, they will either cut jobs or pass costs on to consumers who are struggling to pay their bills in this cruel economy.

Democrats have harmed enough people with their damaging energy policies.
They've drained the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to a dangerously low level, and now they want to use it as a slush fund for the Green New Deal.
GOP Rep. Brady: Dems Want to Turn Petroleum Reserve into 'Slush Fund for the Green New Deal' after Biden Drained It On Wednesday's broadcast of the Fox Business Network's "Fox Business Tonight," Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) discussed the Buy Low and Sell High Act introduced | Clips

After the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported in its August Consumer Price Index that prices rose higher than expectations by 8.3 percent from the previous year, I released the following statement:
"Prices are sky high for food, shelter, and even health insurance, yet over the last month, the Biden Administration raised taxes on American manufacturers, forced low-income workers to pay off the student debt of the well off, and even provided generous subsidies to the wealthy for things ranging from electric vehicles to Obamacare.
"Even former Biden economic advisers warn that to get inflation down further, unemployment will need to rise over the next year. Is that really worth celebrating?"

I remember fondly Her Majesty’s speech to the Texas Legislature in May 1991.
It was a moving and historic moment for a young state House Rep. like me.
Our prayers are with the Royal Family and her grieving nation.

God took a special angel home today.
Jackie was the "happy Hoosier" who would light up a room with her joy, passion, brilliance & love of life.
There is nothing Jackie Walorski couldn't do.
We are all shocked and heartbroken - yet grateful to count her as a friend.

Amidst Russia’s continued aggression, Ukraine has shown its resilience by resuming production and export of steel products. I’m proud that the first shipment of Ukrainian steel since production resumed has arrived in the United States.
A vessel named “the Alamo” recently unloaded steel pipe from Ukraine at the Port of Houston. This will support good Texas jobs, in both further processing of the pipe and in energy production, while supporting Ukraine’s rebuilding efforts.
Trade works!
