We've spent over five billion dollars building more than 2,700 miles of wall—and no, not at our southern border. All along our nation's highways, we've built noise abatement walls—20 to 30 feet tall in some cases. Protecting neighborhoods from highway noise might be worthwhile, but it isn't a crisis.

Every year I have the distinct honor of nominating a handful of North Missouri's finest young men and women to attend our Nation's service academies—the US Military Academy (West Point), US Naval Academy, US Coast Guard Academy, US Air Force Academy, and the US Merchant Marine Academy.
