Scalise’s Summer Update: House Republicans Continue Winning for the American People

Statement

Date: July 26, 2024
Location: Washington

Under President Biden and Vice President Harris’ leadership, America has seen record inflation, soaring energy prices, the worst border crisis in our lifetime, and chaos on a global scale. Since taking the majority, House Republicans have worked tirelessly to combat the Biden Harris Administration’s disastrous policies, stand up for the American people, and fulfill our Commitment to America both on the House Floor and in our committees.

We’ve brought legislation to the floor to unleash American energy and lower costs for families, including bills to reverse the Biden Administration’s radical anti-energy policies and resume oil and gas leasing sales, promote domestic mining of critical minerals, and reform our broken permitting process. We’ve also passed legislation to crack down on the Biden Administration and Border Czar Vice President Harris’ border crisis, such as H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act, which would stem the flow of migrants, reinstate Trump-era border policies, and keep fentanyl off our streets. Additionally, we’ve strongly supported our ally, Israel, against Iran and their terrorist proxies, as well as against the far-Left’s antisemitic attacks, and passed legislation to deter our adversaries.

Our committees have been hard at work increasing transparency and accountability in government, from exposing rampant antisemitism on college campuses, to demanding answers about the assassination attempt on President Trump, to revealing new evidence of President Biden’s involvement in his family’s shady business dealings and his Administration’s efforts to impede the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden.

This is only some of what House Republicans have accomplished to fulfill our promises and address the crises that are most affecting the American people and our national security. But we’re not done working – House Republicans are going to finish this Congress strong and continue pushing back against the Biden Harris Administration’s extreme agenda that has crushed hard-working families. We won’t stop fighting to preserve freedom, strengthen our economy, protect communities, and hold the government accountable.
