Congressman Michael Guest

It was an honor to meet with these public servants who were in D.C. to advocate on behalf of our first responders. Support of our fire service is vital to protect and grow our communities as our firefighters carry out their mission to save lives and protect property.

Brady Stewart, on my staff, attended the ribbon cutting for Heart of Grace Homecare in Flowood. I am thankful for the people willing to serve our most vulnerable.

🧵 Democrats have shut down DHS 3 times in 6 months. Staffing is collapsing. Airport lines are surging. 100,000 workers haven't seen a paycheck.  This is a deliberate decision by the Left to hold American livelihoods hostage to satisfy the radical demands of their base.  Here's the reality of their political games on the ground ⬇️

I was honored to join Real America’s Voice this morning and talk about the SAVE Act, the war in Iran, and exposing fraud.

NEW WAR FUNDING PUSH ON CAPITOL HILL @RepMichaelGuest says Congress will “have to pass additional funding” to resupply weapons, with leaders eyeing reconciliation as the fastest path to fund the military. @dbrodyreports

Americans overwhelmingly support voter ID. The Senate needs to protect our elections and pass the SAVE America Act.

Please tune in to hear more about Iran, the Ethics Committee, and my work in D.C.

Thank you, President Trump.

Democrats must end the Department of Homeland Security government shutdown. It’s time to fully fund the DHS and pay FEMA.

Today, @TSA workers will miss their first full paycheck since the Democrat shutdown began on February 14th. Missed pay is forcing frontline DHS personnel to make tough decisions to pay the bills and put food on their tables. Losing dedicated & experienced Transportation Security Officers doesn't just mean longer security lines today, it could mean weaker transportation security later. Democrats need to end this shutdown.

This week, I want to highlight some of the dangerous individuals captured by the Department of Homeland Security in our own state of Mississippi. It is important that we not lose sight of the work our men and women in law enforcement are doing to keep our communities safe.

Fun Fact Friday: As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence, I want to highlight some of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Stone was a lawyer from Maryland who was elected to serve in the Continental Congress. Thomas, like the other members of the Maryland delegation, was originally sent to vote against independence. Maryland later withdrew that restriction allowing Thomas to include his name on our founding document. Shortly before signing, Stone wrote, “May God send Victory to the Arm lifted in Support of righteousness, Virtue & Freedom, and crush even to destruction the power which wantonly would trample on the rights of mankind.” Thomas Stone quietly signed the Declaration of Independence on August 2, 1776.

My Chief of Staff Jordan Downs was honored to meet with the Mississippi Bankers Association (MBA). Since 1889, the MBA has served bankers across our state. I’m thankful for the services our financial institutions provide the people of Mississippi.

Democrats must end the Department of Homeland Security government shutdown. It’s time to fully fund the DHS and pay TSA.

We are all familiar with Star, Mississippi, but I know the people of Star are especially excited to officially be recognized as Mississippi’s newest town. I look forward to working alongside the community as it continues to grow and thrive. Star is a special place with a proud heritage and is known to many as the hometown of country music star Faith Hill. Communities like Star represent the heart and spirit of Mississippi, and I am proud to represent them in Congress.

I enjoy every opportunity to meet some of our nation’s veterans. I am grateful for the American Legion Department of Mississippi and its tireless advocacy for our men and women who have served. I am also grateful for their investment in the next generation of young men and women through the Mississippi American Legion Boys State and Girls State programs. To all our veterans, I thank you for your service.

As Democrats play political games and keep the Department of Homeland Security closed, Americans are less safe. Since Democrats have cut off funding to federal law enforcement we have seen: - Terrorist inspired shooting in Austin - Attack on a synagogue in Michigan - School shooting at Old Dominion University - Cyberattack on UMMC - Increased delays at airports across the country This is just to name a few. It is time that the Senate Democrats put the safety of Americans ahead of partisan politics and fully fund DHS.

I enjoyed visiting with the Mississippi Farm Bureau Federation’s Emerging Leaders group this week to discuss their priorities and the challenges facing our agriculture producers. I am grateful for the hardworking farmers who feed our great nation and help feed the world.

My District Director Brady Stewart was honored to present Janita Stewart, retired Small Business Administration District Director, an extension of remarks for her 50 years of service. During her half century of service at SBA, Janita helped thousand of businesses and business owners across our state. Thank you, Janita, for your service.
