Since Democrats took control of Washington, this country has taken a sharp left turn. Our nation has experienced rampant inflation, a wide-open border, and endless government spending. Sadly, it’s the American people, and my fellow Oklahomans, who are bearing the brunt of these crippling policy decisions.

The situation at the southern border has hit yet another historic milestone. For the first time in our nation’s history, the U.S. Mexico border has surpassed 2 million crossings for a single fiscal year, with still one more month left. To put things into perspective, that is over half the population of the state of Oklahoma. This massive influx is a direct result of the Biden Administration’s open-border policies that have incentivized illegal crossings, and there have been dangerous consequences as a result.

This week marked 21 years since America was changed forever. Our way of life will always be thought of as before and after the devastating day of September 11, 2001. Americans watched and endured the pure evil that attacked our nation and took thousands of innocent lives. Our nation prevailed, overcoming extreme loss and pain.

Executive orders are issued by the White House and are used to direct the executive branch of the government. Essentially, executive orders have the effect of laws and are supposed to be used strictly in relation to a law passed by Congress or based on powers granted to the President in the Constitution. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the most executive orders with 3721, followed by Woodrow Wilson with 1,803.
