As we celebrate National Police Week, we are reminded of the daily sacrifice, dedication, and selflessness of our law enforcement officers. I will continue fighting to ensure they have the tools, training, and resources they need to do their jobs safely, effectively, and in service to the communities they protect.

Organized retail crime affects all of our communities by driving up costs, hurting Main Street businesses, and putting employees and shoppers at risk. I’m proud to be a cosponsor of the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act (CORCA), which passed on the House Floor. This legislation aims to crack down on these dangerous criminal networks, support coordination between law enforcement agencies, and protect our communities.

Shark depredation affects the health of our marine ecosystem and the safety of our sportfishing community. My bill, the SHARKED Act, brings researchers, fisheries managers, and stakeholders together to better understand the threats posed by shark depredation and reduce risks. This legislation passed the House last year, and I urge my Senate colleagues to act so we can send it to the President's desk.

Join me in celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week. My mother was a teacher in Hanover, and my wife, Kathryn, spent over 40 years teaching elementary school students in Westmoreland County. Because of them, I have seen firsthand the time, care, and heart that educators pour into their work. To all the teachers across Virginia’s First District and around the country: thank you. Your dedication does not go unnoticed, and our communities are stronger because of you.

In rural Virginia, access to health care can mean traveling miles for an appointment. That’s why we’re strengthening rural hospitals and expanding telehealth for those with high-deductible health plans.
