Giulia and I send our condolences to the loved ones of Barney Frank - a skilled legislator, sharp wit, and worthy adversary.
Chairman Frank and I had some lively and memorable disputes but we still found opportunities to work collaboratively together when possible. May his memory be a blessing.

Last year, the average Iowa senior lost $9,000 to scammers. Today? $44,000. That’s not bad luck — it’s organized crime targeting Iowans’ hard-earned money.
My GUARD Act just passed @financialcmte to give law enforcement the tools to fight back.

A great read from @pkcapitol on procedural shifts in the House of Representatives.
Paul Kane@pkcapitol
The disappearing norms have left leaders with fewer tools to run the Congress effectively. These aren’t formal rules of House & Senate, but instead the unwritten guide rails of how to act. “There are no rules anymore.” My latest for @NOTUSreports notus.org/analysis/congr…

Artemis II shows what America can do when government & industry work together.
Bringing a perspective from on-the-ground at the launch in Florida, the U.S. Chamber’s Benjamin Kron and John Neal break down why this space mission is a proving ground for a public-private partnership model that works: NASA leads design and integration while American industry builds and sustains the capability, creating jobs and growth nationwide.

@SullivanSaysSC Wise words.
I looked up the term “hurry-scurry” and came upon this 1963 illustration that invoked images of a police officer chasing after the Sullivan children.

Sad irony can’t obscure the value of this declaration, which seems a wise antidote to doomscrolling and other ailments of social media. The irony is that it came more than a century ago from Vincent van Gogh, who engaged in the social media of his day and fell to other impulses.

The U.S. Chamber urges the U.S. House to remove or revise key provisions of the Senate's 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act. As drafted, Section 901 would undermine efforts to address our housing supply & affordability crisis.

I have known John Leganski for a long time. He was a trusted adviser to me across multiple leadership offices in the House and had a front-row seat to some of the most consequential moments in recent congressional history.
I just finished his new book, Glory, Grief, and the Gavel, and can’t recommend it enough. It’s truly an inside look you won’t find anywhere else.

We were glad to partner with the Greater Burlington Partnership and @RepMMM to amplify the voices of Iowa small businesses. Pro-growth tax policy strengthens communities and fuels opportunity.
Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D.@RepMMM
Great joining @USChamber, local leaders, and small business owners for a roundtable on the Working Families Tax Cuts and what it means for Iowa. We discussed key provisions like the 20% small business deduction and reduced taxes on tips and overtime, pro-growth policies that will increase wages, support business expansion, and drive stronger economic activity across our state.

Remember Mar. 9, 1996, @JessSettlesHoop? No. 19 Iowa led No. 4 Purdue, 54-52, at CHA. Settles ties up Porter Roberts, :10.9 left. Iowa possession. Coach Keady calls TO. Just four Boilers return to floor. A fifth runs onto court after in-bds pass to see Kenyon Murray dunk. 56-52.

We were proud to work with you to bring together Iowa’s business community to discuss the positive impact of the new tax law, @ZachNunn. Thank you for your leadership and commitment to driving growth for small businesses and families.
Congressman Zach Nunn@ZachNunn
Iowa’s nearly 290,000 small businesses employ almost half our workforce. Great roundtable discussion today with @IowaABI and @USChamber on what the Working Families Tax Cuts are delivering: $3,139 in average savings, 11% higher refunds, and the certainty Iowa businesses need to grow.

Today, Chairman @RepRWilliams and @HouseSmallBiz Members heard directly from small businesses about how the Working Families Tax Cuts are helping their business grow.
Thank you, @USChamber, for bringing Main Street to DC so that the Committee can have meaningful conversations about the impact of @POTUS’s pro-business policies.
