When Congress passed – and former President Donald Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts of 2017, most sensible economists knew and predicted they would work. Cutting corporate taxes from 35%-to-21% gave Americans an incentive to invest. And, the tax cuts have overperformed... in 2022 Corporate Income Tax Revenues will be even higher than they would have been without the tax cut.
When it comes to the baby formula shortage, Joe Biden either doesn’t know or does not care. . . That you or someone you know is having difficulty feeding their baby is of no consequence for him. To the extent that he cares about it, or anything for that matter, it has to do with how it impacts him.
“Its absolutely unacceptable that the White House would try to coerce our men and women in uniform to violate their conscience and religious beliefs, let alone on an issue as polarizing as the COVID-19 vaccine," said Sen. Cruz of his effort to stop Joe Biden’s effort to punish service members who decline the COVID-19 vaccine. Accountability and transparency measures are needed, says Cruz.
"Mothers and fathers are staring at empty grocery store shelves in a panic, yet the Biden White House is happy to provide formula to illegal immigrants. Our children deserve a president who puts their needs & survival first," said Gov. Greg Abbott & National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd, after reports showed formula being delivered to U.S. holding facilities during a nationwide crisis.
In May 2019, South Texas Cong. Tony Gonzales spent 23 days – 3 of which were in a coma – at the Brooke Army Medical Center after sustaining brain trauma & kidney failure due to improper intubation. Congressman Gonzales (TX-23) spoke on the House Floor Thursday in celebration of "National Nurses Week," and recognized the BAMC nurses "who brought me back to life.”
Last June, the Biden White House unveiled its "National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism." Despite its sedate-sounding name, the "National Strategy" was anything but – it actually represented the culmination of The Left's cynical use of the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol march as a means of ginning up large-scale, nationwide anti-Republican & anti-Trump sentiment.
As 58% of Americans now say its difficult for them to afford gas, and 52% say it is difficult to pay their grocery bills, Joe Biden's already low March "Approval" ratings have continued to decline in April – and more than 80% of "Registered U.S. Voters" believe the nation's economy is on the "wrong track." With the 2022 Mid-Term Elections fast approaching, Democrats are not in a good spot.
“Parents are speaking out across Texas and America more than ever – they want a stronger say in their child’s education. I'm in full support of Gov. Abbott’s statement that he'll support School Choice in the upcoming Legislative Session. We can support school choice, and at the same time create the best public education system in America. These issues are not in conflict," said Patrick.
“It’s troubling that the economy lost 353,000 workers last month, and that the labor force shrunk," said Cong. Kevin Brady after the Bureau of Labor Statistics released their April Jobs Report. "Its creating more pressure for higher prices, and is hammering small businesses. All warn of a painful recession ahead.”
"My bill will ensure that students are aware of the benefits of CTE programs, and will assist graduates with additional support as they enter the workforce or start their own businesses. America's in critical need of skilled professionals, and now more than ever our country needs more plumbers, electricians, mechanics, and healthcare workers," said Congressman Roger Williams.
The brief demonstrates the lack of medical or scientific evidence supporting so-called sex changes performed on children. It also confirms that these life-altering procedures are likely child abuse.
Latinx voters not only hate being called “Latinx” but hate pretty much everything else that the Dems are doing. The faculty lounge set that sets the party’s agenda is utterly oblivious. They don’t know any Hispanics and the Dems have certainly never thought to ask Hispanic Americans what they want. Instead, the condescending commies told their Hispanic constituents what the left wanted Hispanics to want.
With energy prices alone having increased 30.3% during the past year, “This is more bad news for workers and local businesses, and another month of raging Bidenflation – which means punishing price hikes, core inflation worsening, and worker's paychecks shrinking," said Cong. Kevin Brady after the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released its April Consumer Price Index (CPI) Report.
While the nation's attention is focused on Joe Biden's effort to fight back accusations of having caused record gas prices at the pump, in a State District Court in Houston a lawsuit between two oil & gas companies has the potential to increase energy costs further – and alter the way midstream companies like them operate in Texas.
"Harvard and the University of North Carolina indisputably use race as an important consideration in deciding whom to admit. Evidence suggests, in fact, that the challenged admissions policies may strive for racial balancing — an aim that is unconstitutional on its face," said the filing organized by Sen. Ted Cruz and Congresswoman Michelle Steel, which included a total of 82 legislators.
