Last week, the price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline soared to new levels across the United States and here in Wisconsin. Never in our nation’s history has the national average price of gas hit $4.50/gallon. We’ve got a real problem on our hands, and it is a direct result of the policies of the Biden Administration. This time last year, gas was about $3.04/gallon and before President Biden was sworn in gas hovered around $2.20/gallon nationally. The extraordinary cost of fuel is impacting everyone from drivers and truckers to farmers and businesses.
One-hundred thousand dollars. That is how much financial aid servicemembers are eligible to receive once they have served at least 36 months of active-duty service in the military.
Government spies are taking on a whole new meaning in President Biden’s $5.5 trillion spending bill. Washington Democrats intend to pay for their behemoth spending plan by enabling the IRS to deploy a surveillance scheme on American bank accounts under the guise of closing the “tax gap.” The proposal would require banks and credit unions to report most account’s inflows and outflows to IRS agents.

Of course, I am talking about President Biden’s vaccine mandates that would require large swaths of workers to get vaccinated, submit to weekly COVID-19 testing, or be fired.
$4.5 trillion. That was the amount of foreign direct investment in the U.S.
Education undoubtedly plays a foundational role in a student’s early years. The success of this education depends on the cooperative relationship between teachers and parents in order to achieve the best outcome for the student. Where there is cooperation, however, there must be transparency.
If you’ve tuned into the news lately, you’ve likely heard about the crisis unfolding at our southern border ever since President Biden took office, and there are no signs of this crisis slowing down.
During President Biden’s recent trip to Wisconsin, we had a chance to hear details about the President’s latest infrastructure proposal. While President Biden touched on important initiatives that matter to Wisconsinites—like repairing our bridges and repaving our roads—what he failed to disclose is the multi-trillion-dollar contingency attached to his proposal.
