Dillon's Law: Empowering Good Samaritans to Save Lives

This week, I was proud to reintroduce the bipartisan Dillon’s Law alongside Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (D-MI). This legislation encourages states to empower trained “Good Samaritans” to administer epinephrine during emergencies in schools, helping save lives when every second counts.

Right now, only trained school employees can administer this lifesaving medication. Dillon’s Law expands that access to any trained individual in the event of an emergency, ensuring that help is never too far away.

This bill is named in honor of Dillon Mueller, an 18-year-old from Mishicot, Wisconsin, who tragically lost his life in 2014 after a bee sting triggered an anaphylactic reaction.

Angel and George Muller, Dillon’s parents, have been powerful advocates in working to prevent a tragedy like theirs from happening again. Their efforts have been instrumental in advancing this legislation, and I’m honored to work with them every step of the way.

Since Dillon's passing, states like Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Indiana have enacted versions of Dillon’s Law with strong bipartisan support.

While Congress passed a similar measure in 2013, Dillon’s Law builds on that progress to give more people the training and authority to act in an emergency.

We’re working to prevent more heartbreaking tragedies like Dillon’s. No parent should lose a child simply because lifesaving medication wasn’t available.

I'm proud to honor Dillon’s legacy, support families, and work to save lives.

Fighting for Small Businesses: My Op-Ed with Rep. Kevin Hern

I recently joined Congressman Kevin Hern (R-OK) to co-author an op-ed in The Daily Signal, titled "How to Protect Small Businesses from Bureaucratic Overreach."

Small business owners are the backbone of the American economy. They pour in long hours, dedication, and grit to serve their communities and provide for their families. House Republicans are committed to standing up for them.

In our op-ed, Rep. Hern and I lay out a plan to roll back the harmful Obama-Biden era joint employer standard, a policy that created uncertainty and burdened small businesses with unnecessary red tape.

The Save Local Business Act restores the long-standing joint employer standard that supported small business growth for over 30 years. Just as importantly, it stops the political tug-of-war that’s made it harder for job creators to plan for the future.

The bill was recently approved by the Education and Workforce Committee with my support, bringing it one step closer to consideration on the House floor.

We’re making progress to ensure small businesses have the freedom and certainty they need to thrive.

Weekly Roundup

Friday was National Hire a Veteran Day. This day served as a powerful reminder for employers to seek out and hire veterans. These individuals are not only highly trained and hardworking but are exceptionally well-suited for a variety of careers across nearly every industry.

To the veterans of both past and present who’ve worked in my office - thank you, not only for your selfless service to our nation, but for your dedication to the people of the 6th District. Whether through public service, community engagement, or day-to-day leadership, your contributions have made a lasting impact.

Sunday is National Korean War Veterans Day. We will honor the brave soldiers who fought with unwavering courage and sacrifice in the Korean War - defending freedom and paving the way for generations of Korean Americans to thrive in the United States.

Last week, I had a very productive meeting with the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) to discuss critical efforts to strengthen the rural veterinary workforce and support long-term sustainability in the field. Ensuring access to quality veterinary care is vital for both our farmers, and our communities across Wisconsin's Sixth District.

Congratulations to Vincent John Bertram on earning the prestigious Eagle Scout Award - a truly outstanding achievement! Your commitment to service, leadership, and community is admirable. Thank you for setting such a strong example for others to follow. It was an honor to attend the ceremony in Arlington, WI and celebrate this milestone with you last weekend.

I had a great time at the Sheboygan Early Bird Rotary Club Lobster Boil in Fountain Park last weekend.

This community tradition is a highlight of the summer with great lobster, great discussions, and an even greater cause. Thank you to the Early Bird Club and all the volunteers who made this spectacular event possible.

I had a fantastic time at Campbellsport St. Kilian’s Chapel Picnic last weekend. It was great hanging out with the community and enjoying the incredible live music from Carole and the Keynotes. Their music never disappoints.
