Nothing is simpler than passing the SAVE America Act.   The House has passed it multiple times. The Senate needs to pass it immediately and send it to the President’s desk.   The integrity of our elections depends on it.

The Trump Administration’s war on fraud is a fight I am proud to be part of in Congress. In North Carolina, we have seen how criminals exploit the programs and benefits intended for our most vulnerable citizens. My voting record shows how serious I am about stopping these fraudsters, which is why taking @VP’s pledge to protect Americans from fraud was an easy decision. To no one’s surprise, none of my Democrat colleagues have joined us. The Left continues to turn a blind eye and enable hardworking Americans to be abused and exploited by these criminals.

Rep. Mark Harris retweeted
One of the sessions at the National Education Association’s (NEA) 2025 conference was titled “Christian Nationalist Threats to Public Education.” The NEA is our nation’s LARGEST teachers union, and instead of supporting our educators and strengthening our education system, it is promoting anti-Christian rhetoric to push its radical agenda. I have been sounding the alarm about this left-wing hack of an organization that enjoys the benefits of a federal charter. This deplorable behavior is exactly why I introduced legislation to revoke its charter.

A preview of the disturbing findings from @EdWorkforceCmte’s latest report on antisemitism in K-12 schools: 🔴 Fifth graders were taught that the term “Founding Fathers” was harmful and that our Founding Fathers “created and upheld systems of racial and gender inequality.” 🔴 A school district recommended a children’s book that erases Israel from maps of the Middle East. 🔴 Second graders were taught about “privilege on a global scale” and “climate activism.” 🔴 School staff and students raised money for and collaborated with a group alleged to have ties to a U.S.-designated terrorist organization. 🔴 District employees responsible for writing curricula incited antisemitism online and among their colleagues, with one declaring that “all resistance is righteous.” 🔴 Eighth graders were taught about “expressions of power,” including the example of “when a non-binary speaks up to remind a teacher which pronouns they use.” 🔴 Teachers who taught lessons that legitimized antisemitism and whitewashed terrorism told colleagues not to share the curriculum directly with parents. 🔴 Rather than teaching the Holocaust in depth, a high school teacher focused her lessons on settler colonialism and what was happening in Palestine. This is not education. This is erasing our history and indoctrinating young minds with radical, far-left propaganda and antisemitism. It is the exploitation of our most vulnerable, teaching them to hate our country and our allies. As a husband and father to two educators and a member of the House Education and Workforce Committee, I am disgusted by these findings, and those responsible must be held accountable. Our schools should be teaching the next generation the skills and lessons they need to succeed, not fueling hatred and political activism. Read it for yourself⤵️ edworkforce.house.gov/upload…

I am deeply disturbed by the news of an assassination plot targeting my good friend and colleague, Congressman Keith Self. I am grateful to the FBI and law enforcement for stopping this threat and for their continued efforts to combat radical Islamic terrorism across our nation.
I am grateful to the FBI and law enforcement for stopping this threat. My family and I are safe, and I remain focused on serving the people of Texas’ 3rd District. Preserving our constitutional republic from radical Islam means accepting the costs that come with it—name-calling, threats, and worse. Our Founders believed this country was worth the sacrifice. I served 25 years in the military because defending freedom was worth the sacrifice. This only strengthens my resolve. I will not back down. wfaa.com/article/news/crime/…

It was wonderful visiting the residents at Windsor Run in Matthews. We had a great conversation about strengthening Social Security and Medicare and the tax relief we delivered through the Working Families Tax Cuts Act. Our seniors have given so much to our communities, and I will always fight for them in Washington!

Deport every single one.
Illegal aliens were literally taking bread out of the mouths of starving, poverty-stricken, Americans.

After four years in Russian captivity, American Stephen Hubbard is finally coming home to his family. I am grateful for President Trump’s strong leadership in securing his release and his commitment to peace through strength. Welcome home, Stephen! 🇺🇸

How on earth is simply taking someone’s word verification of citizenship? By these standards, any illegal alien or foreigner can vote in our federal elections. California is a breeding ground for voter fraud.
NEW: Los Angeles County elections officials confirm in court filing that they have no way to verify U.S. citizenship for voters and they rely solely on a voter’s attestation when they check yes or no to being a U.S. citizen under penalty of perjury. This is part of ongoing lawsuit w/ Feds.

The Trump Administration has cleaned up nearly 50 million Social Security records, including millions with missing or incorrect citizenship information. This is a MAJOR step toward preventing fraud, protecting your taxpayer dollars, and securing our elections.
Social Security just scrubbed its books. The agency added 17 million missing death dates, filled in 25 million missing citizenship entries, and fixed 8.5 million wrong ones. About 50 million records in all, the biggest SSN cleanup in its 91-year history, it told Fox News. hannity.com/media-room/house…

The Harvest Fuel Relief Program will provide $8 billion in assistance to help American farmers offset rising diesel and production costs during harvest season. I’m grateful for @POTUS and @SecRollins’s commitment to putting our farmers first as they work tirelessly to feed our nation. I encourage NC-08 producers to prepare now by creating a Login.gov account linked to USDA ahead of the application period. Learn more: usda.gov/farmers-first
🚨 BREAKING: @POTUS just announced $8 BILLION in relief for American farmers! Through @USDA’s new Harvest Fuel Relief Program, we are delivering critical support to farmers facing rising costs and market disruptions. President Trump is putting FARMERS FIRST and delivering when they need it most! Thank you, Mr. President.

By denying @EnesFreedom eligibility, the WNBA admits that biological sex determines gender. Yet the league STILL has no clear standard defining who can compete. It’s common sense, and exactly why I called on Commissioner Cathy Engelbert to establish one last month. foxnews.com/outkick-sports/w…

My prayers are with Pope Leo XIV for his good health and a full recovery. May God wrap His loving arms around him and guide the hands of those caring for him.
I would like to thank all those who have prayed for me in recent days. I wish to express my particular gratitude to the doctors, nurses and all the staff of the Gemelli Hospital. This experience has made me feel particularly close to all those who are living with illness or infirmity. Now that I have overcome this delicate phase I will gradually resume my activities, always with God’s help and your prayers.

“The PARITY Act, endorsed by my organization, the American Principles Project, promises to foster more competition and choice for students in all walks of life, especially low-income, minority, veteran and nontraditional students.” — @Schilling1776 Grateful to APP and the coalition of more than a dozen freedom-advocating organizations for their continued support and work to advance the PARITY Act in both chambers of Congress. It's time for Congress to repeal the 90/10 rule once and for all. washingtontimes.com/news/202…
