It cannot be denied that over the last three years, no matter where you go, prices have risen. This fact contradicts what the President says when he touts “Bidenomics”, his economic philosophy. But working Americans are not buying the Bidenomics plan. They feel the budgetary pain caused by the President’s policies every day, which include spending trillions of dollars and drastically increasing the size of the federal government. Hardworking Oklahomans know this is not a recipe for success.

Under the Biden administration, we have seen record daily crossings, massive increases in migrant encounters every month, and an 800% increase in unaccompanied minors crossing the border since 2020. For this reason, a central tenet of our Commitment to America is tackling the border tragedy. The President’s open border policies have turned every district across America into a border district and every state into a border state, leaving us with an unprecedented humanitarian and national security crisis.

From working on behalf of the American people to providing critical oversight of the Biden Administration, House Republicans have hit the ground running. During the 118^th Congress, my Republican colleagues and I have taken concrete steps to counter President Biden’s anti-American energy agenda and restore American energy independence.

With the start of the August district work period, I want to take a moment to reflect on the accomplishments of the 118^th Congress. With a House majority, Republicans have conducted rigorous oversight, lead committees, brought meaningful legislation to the floor, and worked together to advance solutions. This is what the American people expect.
