Seventy-nine years ago, Nazi Germany unconditionally surrendered to the Allies, marking the official end of the Second World War.
On this Victory in Europe Day, we honor the bravery and sacrifice of the Greatest Generation, who fought to liberate the world from authoritarianism.
Happy National Teacher Day to all the great educators in the Miami Valley!
In honor of National Teacher Appreciation Week, I cosponsored

“
@RepBradWenstrup
, both from his background and his work in Congress, has really fashioned leadership as this space for himself…Because of his expertise and the work he’s done, we’re looking for him to remain active in the public discussion.”
ICYMI: Earlier today, a Biden Administration official publicly acknowledged to Chairman
@RepMikeTurner
that Russia is developing an anti-satellite nuclear weapon that could threaten U.S. assets in space.
More from
@BretBaier
and
@JenGriffinFNC
:
Placing a nuclear weapon in orbit is a clear violation of the Outer Space Treaty.
During
@HASCRepublicans
’ Strat Forces Subcom hearing, the Assist. Sec. of Defense for Space Policy confirmed that Russia is developing an anti-satellite weapon capable of carrying a nuclear device.
Last week, Russia vetoed a UN Security Council resolution that called on all nations to prevent a nuclear arms race in outer space.
At today’s
@HASCRepublicans
hearing, I asked
@SecDef
why
@POTUS
has yet to declassify the extent of Russia’s anti-satellite capabilities in space.
Last week, Chairman
@RepMikeTurner
and RM
@JAHimes
led a bipartisan CODEL to Europe, where they met with
@IAEAorg
Director General
@RafaelMGrossi
and
@USAmbUK
Jane Hartley.
The purpose of their CODEL was to gain a better understanding of the current national security landscape.
This month, the House passed
@NatResources
’ EXPLORE Act, which included my Outdoors for All Act – legislation to expand recreational opportunities in urban communities.
This bill enhances opportunities for families in my district to enjoy the Miami Valley’s great outdoor spaces.
Happy 116th Birthday to the

Today, we thank all of the men and women who have contributed their time and talent to protecting our freedoms.

“According to
@KielInstitute
, our European allies have committed to giving more than $60 billion in military aid since Russia’s unjustified invasion, while the U.S. has given roughly $42 billion.”
Last year, Xi Jinping told Vladimir Putin, “Change is coming that hasn’t happened in 100 years, and we are driving this change together.”
China and Russia want to see authoritarianism defeat democracy and freedom.
Our adversaries cannot succeed.
America must support Ukraine.

“The lack of U.S. support is impacting morale in Ukraine. But their ability to sustain the fight, and they are fighting honorably, to keep Russia from taking additional ground in Ukraine is essential.”
Ukraine is running out of ammunition.
Last night, I told
@JMathieuReports
and
@KaileyLeinz
that Russia is surging and putting additional pressure on Ukraine’s frontline.
We need to give Ukraine additional weapons capabilities, so they can change the dynamics on the battlefield.
