Dear Friend,
Illegal immigrants continue to flow across the border while our border agents struggle to keep up. Drug cartels and gangs pour into our country, ripping apart families. Human traffickers use the border to grow their heinous operations.
And who's the real bad guy in all of this?
According to the far LEFT, it's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
That's right.
Somehow, liberals have decided that the men and women who are tasked with protecting our borders are the ones who need to be reined in. You can't make this stuff up!
Dear Friend,

Dear Friend,
Selecting a Supreme Court Justice is one of the most important decisions the President can make. Earlier this week, President Donald Trump announced his nominee to the Supreme Court selecting Judge Brett Kavanaugh to replace the retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy.
I said last week that it was critical that the nominee be a constitutional conservative who will uphold the rule of law and make decisions based on the direction our founders had in mind for this country. I believe that Judge Kavanaugh is a perfect example of that kind of judge.
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Rep. Sam Graves, (MO-06), released the following statement in support of President Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court, Judge Brett Kavanaugh:
"Selecting a Supreme Court Justice is one of the most important decisions the President can make," said Graves. "Judge Kavanaugh's commitment to uphold the Constitution, conservative values, and his reputation as a brilliant jurist make him an excellent choice. I am confident that he will serve with distinction and I urge the Senate to act swiftly to confirm him to the Supreme Court."
Dear Friend,
July 4, 1776, is a day we commemorate every year for good reason - our freedoms and very existence rests on what happened that day when we signed the Declaration of Independence.
We look to that important document as a guide that indeed "all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with inalienable rights."
As the Declaration states, our rights come from God and are laid out in the Constitution. We pass laws in Congress to defend these rights and the Supreme Court is tasked with ensuring that these rights adhere to the Constitution.
Dear Friend, You've seen the news stories and you probably know someone who's been affected by it in some way - the scourge of opioid addiction. Overcoming this crisis is proving to be far more difficult than anyone expected. Did you know that more than 2 million Americans will suffer from addiction to opioids in 2018? Or that 115 people in the United States die after overdosing on opioids EVERY DAY? |
