Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

My team and I had a great week traveling the new, improved, and expanded 9^th Congressional District. We are blessed to live in one of the greatest areas in the nation, with great towns, natural resources, schools and, most of all, some of the hardest-working, amazing people. To put the size of the new 9^thDistrict in perspective, consider this; it is larger than the entire state of Connecticut.

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

Our team has hit the ground running this year as we work on behalf of the great people of the 9th Congressional District. And we have exciting news. This week, I was appointed to the House Financial Services Committee. My team and I are excited to serve my constituents and Pennsylvania on the House Financial Services Committee. I am confident that my career in business and my time as Pennsylvania's Secretary of Revenue will bring a unique perspective to the committee and serve my constituents and the nation well.

I look forward to working on the committee to address the pressing issues facing the American economy and financial system.

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

First and foremost, I hope you had a great holiday season and best wishes for a very Happy New Year! In 2023, I will build on the work done as the congressional representative in the 9th District. Now that the GOP is in the majority and I have new committee assignments, I will focus on strengthening our economy, lowering energy costs and inflation and advocating for small businesses and farms. In addition, we will hold the government more accountable to the people we serve, protect our national security, including the border, and bring fiscal responsibility to government spending. Our congressional staff delivers exceptional constituent services, but we will reach a higher level at home. We will also be focused on many revitalization projects to advance our area. Overall, my New Year's resolution is to have a renewed and improved commitment to public service.

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

The latest inflation numbers were released this week. Inflation has increased by 7.1% in the last year, and in Pennsylvania, it has increased by 12%.

While the Biden administration celebrates, Americans are suffering. There is no celebrating when my constituents go to the grocery store or the gas station and pay their home heating bills. They feel this pain every day. Click here to watch my recent floor speech.

I joined “Mornings with Maria” on Fox Business to discuss the Biden economy. Many struggle to stay afloat as they deal with record-high prices while paying back pandemic loans. The Biden administration and the Democrats answer to record inflation, deny it and pass yet another large big-government spending bill. This time to the tune of nearly $2 trillion.

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

This week, I was named Pennsylvania’s elected representative on the Republican Policy Committee. I look forward to working with my colleagues on an array of issues that are important to the people of the 9^th District and the nation. We will work on policy that strengthens America’s national security and economy and benefits all Americans. Much work must be done to deal with pressing problems regarding inflation, energy, and the border.

I joined Sean Spicer and Lyndsay Keith on Newsmax’s Spicer & Co. to discuss remarks made by French President Emmanuel Macron about negotiating with Russia over the war in Ukraine and reports that Chinese Hackers stole millions in COVID relief funds. Click here or below to watch my interview.

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

After the past few years of experiencing near-total Democratic control at the federal level, Republicans have won back control of the U.S. House of Representatives. This effectively retires Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has jammed through a far-left agenda on behalf of the Biden administration. But make no mistake about it, this is not a time for celebration… this is the time to get to work.

I joined Newsmax's "Wake Up America" to discuss the new GOP House majority and our plans to take back our nation. Click here or below to watch.

Due to the policy agenda of Biden and the Biden Democrats, our nation is facing several severe crises. These include a continued influx of illegal aliens and deadly drugs crossing our southern border, an economic recession and record inflation, an energy crisis, worker shortages, Russia, China, and many other issues impacting our nation.

Good evening and welcome to our Weekend Update.

I want to begin by again acknowledging and thanking all our brave veterans as we observed Veterans Day on Friday. We live in the greatest nation in the world, but our freedom isn't free. Our brave veterans have sacrificed, some paying the ultimate price, to defend our country. We are eternally grateful for our brave veterans on Veterans Day and every day.

Earlier in the week, I joined with other officials for the 40th annual Veterans Day Program at Indiantown Gap National Cemetery. (From left are retired Marine Reserve Col. and State Rep. Frank Ryan; Lebanon County Commissioner Mike Kuhn; State Rep. Russ Diamond; State Sen. Chris Gebhard, and Lebanon County Commissioner Bob Phillips)

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

With Election Day just days away, I had a great time in Latrobe last night with President Donald J. Trump for his Election Day Rally. He rallied support for the Republican ticket, including Dr. Oz for U.S. Senate and Doug Mastriano for Governor. I am proud to have President Trump’s endorsement for re-election. (Watch President Trump give us a shoutout from the rally yesterday by clicking here or below.)

(Pictured below with our great U.S. Senate candidate Dr. Oz, State Treasurer Stacy Garrity, and my colleague Congressman G.T. Thompson.)

Election Day is only 8 days away. The work we put in over the next week will determine what direction we want to move this nation.

Do we want to elect Democrats to continue implementing a failed agenda that has led to a border crisis, a domestic energy crisis, and record inflation that has led us into a recession? Our domestic energy industries, especially natural gas, coal, and conventional oil, are under attack by the Biden administration and Democrats in Congress. Republicans have a plan to unleash American energy and bring prices down for all Americans.

I joined "Varney & Co." on Fox Business to discuss the importance of Pennsylvania natural gas & domestic energy production. We also discussed John Fetterman's flip-flop on fracking. The truth is that Fetterman and many Democrats oppose fracking and the natural gas industry, only to pay them lip service around election time. Their waffling this year has only become more pronounced as they find themselves in the waning days of this election, where gas prices remain high. Click here or below to watch my interview.

Good afternoon and welcome to our Weekend Update.

With less than three weeks till Election Day, the momentum is clearly on the Republican side of the ticket. It's hard to imagine how it wouldn't be when considering the disastrous policies of the Biden administration and Biden Democrats; our nation is facing a historic recession, including rising gas and energy prices, worker shortages, and an unprecedented border crisis.

I joined Bob Sellers on Newsmax to discuss the election landscape in Pennsylvania, inflation, and the GOP's plan to strengthen America. I also spoke about the importance of electing Dr. Oz to the U.S. Senate. Click here or below to watch my interview.

Later, I joined "Wake Up America" on Newsmax to again discuss the importance of electing Dr. Oz to the U.S. Senate and the dangers of John Fetterman. We also discussed how critical it is for our nation to return to energy independence. Click here or below to watch.

Last week, I joined Dennis Owens on ABC-27 News in Harrisburg for the "This Week in Pennsylvania" show. I spoke about the current political landscape, inflation, and how the Biden administration has made our country energy dependent on some of our nation's biggest enemies. Click here to watch my interview.

IN NEWS YOU WON'T HEAR IN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA: The Biden administration has created an energy crisis and continues to worsen it. In a desperate attempt to alleviate pressure for high gas prices before the election, Biden has tapped the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. There is widespread agreement that this action is unlikely to lead to gas "prices dropping any meaningful way." Industry experts say it could make the energy problem worse:

• The Independent Petroleum Association of America: The release "not only reduces our capacity to protect ourselves in case of a true emergency in the future but also increases America's reliance on the politically volatile countries that currently provide most of our oil."

• Energy analysts at Sanford C. Bernstein predict prices will likely climb in 2023, warning, "if the SPR has been partially exhausted, it can lead to a steeper escalation in prices."

Biden has waged war on American energy. Indeed, new oil leases have "slowed dramatically" under Biden, according to The Wall Street Journal. High gas prices are not occurring by accident; it was always the intention of Biden's policies.

Meanwhile, Biden and the Biden Democrats refuse to acknowledge how his policy agenda has driven our nation to a recession and an energy and border crisis. What's worse, they won't admit it. Recently, Biden said the U.S. economy is "strong as hell." Out-of-touch does not begin to describe Biden, his administration and congressional Democrats.

PA Congressional Candidate Spotlight:

As we approach Election Day, I am highlighting some of the great Republican candidates we have running across Pennsylvania. Last week, we featured our good friend Lisa Scheller (PA-7). This week, I would like to highlight our Republican candidate to the north, Jim Bognet (PA-8). Jim is a friend and a strong conservative. We can trust Jim Bognet to put America First and Pennsylvania First in Congress. Jim is a small business owner and conservative policy adviser. Jim served in a senior position in the Trump White House, and his responsibilities included helping to expand American manufacturing, creating jobs, and supporting small businesses.

I encourage everyone to learn more about Jim's campaign by visiting his website. I look forward to serving alongside Jim in Congress. (Pictured below with Republican Whip Steve Scalise and Jim Bognet)

Around the District:

On Sunday, I was invited by the Jewish Community Center to take part in their special panel featuring former Ambassador to Ukraine and Russia, John Tefft. Again, a great crowd joined us to discuss policy regarding the importance of supporting Ukraine. Thanks to Gary Bernstein and Greg Fellerman, from the Jewish Community Alliance, for helping coordinate the event.

On Monday night, I attended the Lebanon county Republican Committee Fall Dinner. It was an incredible turnout full of excited Republicans ready to win big on November 8th. Another great event put together by the Lebanon GOP, now led by Chairman Bill Bova.

On Tuesday, I joined my good friend and GOP State House candidate Jamie Barton (HD-124) to visit Marlin Deitrich at Dietrich's Meats and Country store in Lenhartsville, where we toured an impressive family-owned and operated store. Marlin took us through his store and showed us the process from beginning to end. Marlin is a great reminder of the hardworking agriculture workers around Pennsylvania's 9^th District. And if you want the very best and freshest steaks, liverwurst, and sliced turkey in Pennsylvania, stop at Dietrich's Meats off Route 78 in Berks County. I am working hard for our farmers in Washington because they are working so hard for us to feed America.

Later that evening, I headed to the Berks County Republican Committee Fall Dinner for a great dinner attended by many great patriots. Speaking of patriots, I am pictured with Linda Brancadora at the dinner.

On Wednesday night, I hosted a meet and greet in Wyoming County, where we were joined by many great friends and had a great evening together. The event was held at Stone Hedge Golf Course, a beautiful place with exceptional food and service. Click here to learn more about Stone Hedge.

I joined the Berks County Patriots on Thursday night with my good friends Sam and Linda Brancadora. I was honored to be introduced by Rod Miller, a great American Patriot. As always, it was truly a great crowd of patriots. Our grassroots are fired up!

On Friday, I stopped into a very full house for a fundraiser supporting our northeast candidates running for state office. There will be so many great republicans on the ballot for State Senator and Representative this election.

Later, I participated in a debate on WVIA. Click here to watch our debate. I was thankful to have my family join me for the live debate.

Speaking of my family, it was great for Shelley and me to join my brother Scott, CEO of Pride Mobility Products, and my father Stan, a founder of Pride Mobility, my sister Nancy, my mother, my sister-in-law Susan, for an open house at Pride Mobility. Under my brother, Scott's leadership and constant drive for innovating the most advanced mobility products and complex rehab products in the world, Pride Mobility and Quantum Rehab based in Duryea have expanded its campus-like headquarters, and its more than thousand employees will continue to design and manufacture these world-class products in Pennsylvania for many years to come. Hundreds of thousands of people with serious disabilities or minor trouble walking have gained their mobility and had their lives enhanced by the great products and incredible team at Pride Mobility products and Quantum Rehab. 

Election Day is only 15 days away. There is much at stake. The economy, the border, national security, energy policy, crime... everything Biden and his Democrat backers have touched, they have made worse for America.

There is only one solution. First, we must win back U.S. Congress and retire Speaker Nancy Pelosi once and for all. Next, we must elect Dr. Oz to the U.S. Senate and Doug Mastriano to the Governor's office. Finally, re-electing strong Republican majorities in Harrisburg is critical. Electing Republicans is our path to restoring an agenda that puts both America and Pennsylvania First. Republicans have a plan, The Commitment to America... A plan to get our country back on the right track and will make our country Stronger, Safer, Freer, and will hold our government more accountable to you. So please tell your family, friends, and neighbors to get out and vote. We need a RED WAVEon Tuesday, November 8, 2022.

Thank you, and keep up the faith and the fight,

Dan Meuser
