Weekly Update - 6.15.25

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update on Father's Day. Before we begin with this update, Shelley and I, my family, and I’m sure all Americans, are shocked and terribly saddened by the tragic, ruthless, cold-blooded shooting of innocent public servants in Minnesota. The incendiary rhetoric, hate, and violence must stop. My family mourns and prays for the victims and families of this horrific act. Yesterday, I joined President Donald J. Trump to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States Army. For 250 years, the Army has defended freedom, taken down dictators, defeated the Nazis, and protected the American people—spreading peace, democracy, and American strength across the world. Seeing our military’s history and technology on full display is a powerful reminder of all we must be proud of. This was a celebration of patriotism, service, and the greatest fighting force the world has ever known. Before the celebration, we attended a reception at the White House.

Weekly Update - 6.8.25

Good morning, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Before we begin with our recap, I want to condemn in the strongest possible terms the unlawful attacks on our brave ICE agents yesterday in Los Angeles. There is no place in society for those attacks, and thankfully, President Donald Trump and the administration have taken decisive action to end these attacks against our federal law enforcement officers. Additionally, I want to comment on the ongoing string of violent, antisemitic attacks. They must be fully condemned. The targeting and killing of innocent people must be denounced by everyone: Republicans, Democrats, and all those in positions of leadership. This cannot be tolerated, ignored, or encouraged. Silence is complicity. These crimes on American soil must be punished severely and to the fullest extent of the law. No leniency. No excuses. On Tuesday, I conducted an interview on “Varney & Co.” on Fox Business to discuss the White House’s $9.4B rescissions package—likely the first of many. These packages will be a key step toward codifying President Donald J. Trump’s agenda and delivering lasting government spending reductions. With nearly $7 trillion in annual federal spending, we need to prioritize the "must-haves" over the "nice-to-haves" to address our enormous national debt. President Trump’s plan will reduce spending, grow the economy, and increase revenues, lowering deficits and improving our credit rating. It’s the fiscally responsible path forward and will benefit all Americans. Click here or below to watch.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. It was great to be in Steel City with President Trump, celebrating the historic US Steel-Nippon Steel Deal. This partnership is very important for our economy, citizens, and national security. US Steel will remain in Pittsburgh, grow in Western PA, and the Mon Valley, and remain an American company! This was a day to celebrate a win for Pennsylvania, our citizens, our steelworkers, Pittsburgh, and the United States of America. Click here or below to watch my remarks. President Trump gave an inspiring speech about American strength, the importance of domestic manufacturing, and the value of the American worker. He is Making America Great Again.

Weekly Update - Memorial Day Edition

Good afternoon, welcome to our Weekend Update, and join us in honoring our nation's heroes on Memorial Day! As we pause to honor our fallen heroes on this solemn holiday, I remember the words of President Ronald Reagan, who once said on Memorial Day in 1982 at Arlington National Cemetery: "The United States and the freedom for which it stands, the freedom for which they died, must endure and prosper. Their lives remind us that freedom is not bought cheaply. It has a cost; it imposes a burden. And just as they whom we commemorate were willing to sacrifice, so too must we - in a less final, less heroic way - be willing to give of ourselves."

Good evening, and welcome to our Weekend Update. With the support of the Republicans in Congress, the Trump Administration is revitalizing the financial services industry with a clear focus on pro-growth, pro-investment, and pro-American policies: ✅ Regulations are being streamlined to make American businesses more competitive ✅ Basel III is being reconsidered in a capital-neutral way. ✅ Debanking is being eliminated. ✅ Access to capital is expanding. ✅ Energy and borrowing costs are down. ✅ Tariffs are improving access to new, foreign markets. ✅ Key Trump Administration regulators like Travis Hill, Jonathan Gould, Paul Atkins, and Michelle Bowman are advocating for clear, bright-line, pro-growth rules. ✅ Going public is becoming affordable again, and the number of IPOs is already increasing

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. I’ve been lucky to have three amazing mothers in my life—my wonderful mom, Maeve, who raised me, my wife, Shelley, an incredible mother to our three children, and my mother-in-law, Rosemary, who gained a son when I married her daughter. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms across Pennsylvania and nationwide! We’re grateful for everything you do!

Weekly Update - 5.4.25

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. In just 100 days, President Donald J. Trump has worked to strengthen our national security, create an America-First economy, deliver taxpayer savings, restore global leadership, and bring commonsense back to Washington. The border is secure, American energy is recovering, jobs are coming back, inflation is falling, and military recruitment is surging—among many other things. President Trump has a plan that will lead to long-term success for the United States. I joined House Republicans at media row to highlight President Trump's many accomplishments in his first 100 days. I joined "Newsline" on Newsmax to discuss the President's first 100 days and the latest on the "big, beautiful bill." Click here or below to watch.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. On behalf of our family, I want to wish you a Happy Easter and Passover. I hope you take time to celebrate with family and friends. As President Ronald Reagan once said, "Observing the rites of Passover and Easter, we're linked in time to the ancient origins of our values and to the unborn generations who will still celebrate them long after we're gone."

Weekly Update - 4.13.25

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Before we begin with our usual update, I want to acknowledge an event that occurred at Governor Josh Shapiro's residence last evening. Arsonist(s) caused a fire at the home, forcing the evacuation of the Governor and his family. Violence has no place in our politics—NONE. I’m thankful that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. No elected official or their loved ones—regardless of party—should ever have their safety threatened for serving the public. We live in a country where we resolve our differences through debate, elections, and the rule of law—not through fear, intimidation, or violence. What happened last night was not just an attack on one family—it was an attack on the values we all share as Americans. And it is particularly disgraceful that this occurred on Passover—a sacred time of faith, freedom, and reflection. I’m grateful to the Pennsylvania State Police, Capitol Police, and the Harrisburg Bureau of Fire for their swift response and for protecting the Governor’s family. We owe them our thanks and our full support. We must all stand united—Republicans and Democrats alike—in condemning these acts and making clear they will never be tolerated in our Commonwealth or our country. I look forward to these dangerous criminals being apprehended, prosecuted, and jailed to the fullest extent of the law.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. On Tuesday, House Republicans had two big special elections in Florida. I want to congratulate my two new House GOP colleagues, Randy Fine and Jimmy Patronis, on their victories. I was with Speaker Johnson on Election night, and we heard from Randy, who is ready to work to advance the America First agenda! The House GOP looks forward to welcoming them to our Conference.
