Comey Questioning 

During yesterday’s House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing, I questioned FBI Director James Comey about his recommendation not to prosecute former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for maintaining a private server.

Director Comey’s statement on Tuesday exposed lies told by Secretary Clinton to the American public about her emails, including the fact that she deleted work-related emails alongside personal ones, and that she sent classified emails from her private server. Additionally, it was revealed that she did not turn over all work-related emails to the State Department in 2014.

During the hearing, Director Comey admitted that Hillary Clinton could have possibly deleted emails about the Clinton Foundation and the Benghazi scandal. He also revealed that she used her unsecure, private email domain outside the United States in areas with sophisticated hacking technologies.

Hillary Clinton’s email scandal proves once again what the American people already know: she lacks integrity, honesty and good judgement.

While I respect the FBI, I believe it made a grave error by not recommending criminal charges for Hillary Clinton.

Last night’s attack on 12 law enforcement officers was calculated and devastating. These officers were shot attempting to protect peaceful protesters exercising their constitutional right.

As law enforcement works to get to the bottom of this attack, let us all come together as Americans to support Dallas.

The legislation updates the 2006 version of the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act to better address the training and skills needed to take part in our current workforce.

The bill increases the focus on work-based learning opportunities and allows states more flexibility in how they use federal resources in career and technical education opportunities.

This legislation will strengthen the skills of our workforce, especially in fields like manufacturing, and will help grow our state’s economy.
