With Putinโ€™s counter sanctions on me and other colleagues, I will take the visit to Siberia off my โ€˜bucket list.โ€™ I was one of a dozen GOPers years ago voting to deny most favored nation trade status to Russia and a no-brainer to revoke it!

Speaker Pelosiโ€™s partisan drug pricing plan does not have bipartisan support. This bill stifles innovation and would result in fewer cures. Letโ€™s get to work and find a bipartisan solution! ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

These terrorist attacks against Israel are fueled by hate and antisemitism. I am sickened by these attacks and stand with our ally today and everyday ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ

The USMCA just PASSED! This trade deal is a win for Michigan workers. Trade is absolutely vital to MI's economy & our auto suppliers, manufacturers, & farmers will all benefit greatly from this new agreement. #MI06

Planned Parenthood video is abhorrent and rips at the heart. @HouseCommerce will get to the bottom of this appalling situation.

During my visit to the @KzooGospel w/ @SecretaryCarson , we saw firsthand how the PPP has truly helped local orgs weather this crisis. @KzooGospel received $460K, which has allowed them to continue to support our most vulnerable & weโ€™re all so grateful for their work. #MI06

Friday, @SpeakerPelosi will hold votes on proxy voting & a $3T spending bill. I've been clear that any bill that becomes law must be bipartisan & this one doesn't pass the test. I'll be in DC to work w/ GOPs & Dems to find real solutions & ensure #MI06 has a voice at the table.

The Democratic bill, H.R. 3, would stifle innovation. Our alternative to lower drug costs - H.R. 19 - would continue the innovation surge we have seen because of 21st Century Cures & allow us to still be able to find the cures for the diseases that really impact every family.
