The United States Postal Service is one of the only federal agencies that can trace its roots to the United States Constitution. Needless to say, mail delivery is one of the few things the federal government should do and should do well. Unfortunately, they aren't.

The State of the Union is supposed to be an opportunity for the President to update the Nation on his policies to address the issues we face. It usually doesn’t involve picking fights during the speech or going after your opponent in the upcoming election. Unfortunately, last night, it did.

Our law enforcement officers go above and beyond the call of duty every single day. They know that when they lace up their boots in the morning and kiss their loved ones goodbye, they might never return home. Fortunately, most do, but that's tragically what happened yesterday in Independence.

The death tax is something I’ve been fighting for years. It just doesn’t make sense. We work all our lives to scrape by, pay taxes all along the way, and if we’re lucky, pass something along to our children. For the life of me, I can’t figure out why the federal government thinks it’s owed something when we die. Death shouldn’t be a taxable event.

January 9th marked National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. While every day is an opportunity to show our appreciation to all the men and women who serve our communities, we should take time to honor the profound dedication of the law enforcement officers who willingly put their lives on the line to protect our family and neighbors daily.

A new year means evaluating what’s working, what isn’t, and what we need to focus on in the new year. That’s no different in Congress. America is coming to a crossroads politically, economically, and internationally. We must remain committed to securing American prosperity for generations to come and focus on doing the things that ensure that happens.
