Dear Friend,

As we near the middle of April, I wanted to send you a few updates on what work we have accomplished in Washington, D.C. and around Alabama’s 6th district over the past month:

Dear Friend,

I hope you had a great holiday season and that your 2023 is off to a good start. This new year has brought an opportunity for the Republican majority in the House of Representatives to start providing solutions to the issues that matter most to the American people.

Last year, we promised the country we would pass legislation in the House to lower inflation, build a strong economy, secure our nation and hold government accountable.

Dear Friend,

As the year concludes, it would be easy to focus on the difficulties our nation has faced. Grocery and gas prices have been at record highs. It will be more expensive to heat our homes this winter, and the southern border remains unsecure. However, as the year comes to a close, there is an invitation to pursue new beginnings.

Dear Friends,

It's been a year since Joe Biden was inaugurated President of the United States. A year after he took office, we can look around and see overwhelming evidence of how life has gotten harder for people across the country, not easier. We also have alarming examples of how he has weakened America's position on the world stage and emboldened our enemies. To put it bluntly, our country has been in crisis since President Biden took office and his policies are making things worse, not better.

Dear Friends,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family! As the year concludes, I write to express my appreciation for you and for your continued partnership, while I do my best to represent you in Washington. I hope these Christmas holidays provide much-needed rest and time with family and friends. Although this year has continued to prove difficult for many, I hope the struggles have inspired new determination in us to fight for our country.

Dear Friends,

For over two centuries, America has stood as the land of opportunity and freedom around the world. It has been a place where anyone, regardless of background or circumstance, can rise above challenges and become successful and independent with hard work and perseverance. This freedom to live self-sufficiently and work as one chooses has yielded prosperity and flourishing throughout the United States for generations.

Dear Friends,
I hope you all had relaxing and enjoyable July 4th celebrations with your friends and families. As this Independence Day has come and gone, I've been reminded of all we've been through as a nation over the last year, and how we've weathered it together. The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges for our country, but through it, we saw people come together, help one another, and pull through together. I'm reminded through all of this of how resilient and innovative Americans remain at their core.

Dear Friends,
As I look ahead to the summer and discuss plans with friends and family, I am hopeful that everyday life is returning to normal. Hopefully, the slowdown in vaccination rates will not impede the progress we have made. I appreciate how people in the Sixth District have come together to do their part to get through the difficult past year-and-a-half. However, in order to get back to normal it is critical that people get back to work.

Dear Friends,
A few weeks ago, deadly tornadoes ripped through our district in Alabama. Homes and property were destroyed. While visiting the paths of the tornados that struck the Sixth District, I saw extensive damage to homes, businesses, and timber. I am amazed and extremely thankful that there were no fatalities. Despite the damage to peoples' property, I was encouraged by the spirit and determination I saw in those who were hit to pick up the pieces and repair or rebuild.
It's easy to let despair or fear take hold in other areas too.

"Straight is the gate and narrow is the way that leads to liberty, and few nations, if any, have found it." -John Adams
I think the above quote from Founding Father John Adams is fitting for where we find ourselves as Americans today.

Dear Friends,
With all the hardship associated with the pandemic and riots, many people thought 2021 would have to be much better. Unfortunately, the riot at the United States Capitol on January 6th showed that this year may bring even more trouble and hardship. I certainly hope not.
January 6th was undoubtedly one of the darkest days I've experienced during my time in Congress, but I was appreciative of the many sympathetic messages I received.

If you're like me, your Independence Day was a little muted because of social distancing and the fact that many of our city and community Independence Day events were cancelled. John Adams, one of the our most prominent founders and our second president, actually envisioned Americans celebrating our nation's birthday with food and festivities and with the big fireworks shows. Writing to his wife Abigail, John Adams said, "I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival.

I hope you and your family are well amidst these uncertain, difficult times for our nation. We continue to face the COVID-19 crisis, but horrific deaths and riots have also shaken many over the last few weeks. I mourn with all of those who are hurting over the unjust deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, as well as with those who have had their lives or livelihoods endangered amidst the violent riots. I pray that justice will be swiftly served and also that law and order will be restored.

I hope you and your family are well as we continue to navigate the COVID-19 crisis. The conversations have shifted to reopening our country and I am committed to making that happen for Alabama in the safest and most efficient way possible. I want to provide the latest updates on the reopening process, as well as share how I've been involved at both the state and national level. But first, here are some things you need to know.

I hope you and your families are staying healthy and are following the CDC guidelines during this very strange time for our country and world. It's hard to believe how fast people's lives have changed in such short time due to the COVID-19 outbreak. I wanted to provide a brief update on the situation and what my staff and I and the federal government are doing to fight the virus.
