Many years ago, the last silicon chip manufacturer closed its operations in Silicon Valley because of the high tax, energy and regulatory costs of doing business in the United States. Now we’ve suddenly decided we want them back. Instead of addressing the problem by reducing the obstacles to domestic manufacturing, Congress will shell out $280 billion (about $2,240 per family) to bail out impoverished big tech moguls by substituting your dollars for theirs. There’s a prevailing wage requirement to reward the unions, and just so the green left isn’t left out, there’s plenty of your money left over to finance green energy scams as well. Starving big tech executives thank you for your family’s generous contribution to their welfare. Good luck affording your next laptop.
Under the pretense of combating human smuggling, this bill hands out $1.1 billion to bloated foreign aid programs, resume workshops for noncitizens and other unaccountable grants to community groups and local governments. It utterly ignores the human trafficking crisis unfolding on the southern border as crime cartels smuggle record numbers of unaccompanied minors into the country, which the Biden administration then traffics to a community near you with the help of your tax dollars.
HR 8373 and HR 8404 – Hair on Fire Over Dobbs Decision: No. HR 8373 purports to guarantee the right to contraception and HR 8404 to guarantee the right to gay and interracial marriage. There is not a single state in the country that bans contraception or interracial marriage and no one in their right mind would support such bans. This is a reaction to the Dobbs decision that overturned the Roe decision but also explicitly stated that it did not extend beyond abortion. HR 8373 creates a broad definition of contraception that could include sterilization and chemical abortions and forces health clinics to provide them against their religious convictions. With respect to HR 8404, I believe marriage is an institution that exists in nature and is specific to the creation and protection of new life.
H.Res. 1130 – Beware of Foreign Entanglements: No. This measure supports the admission of Sweden and Finland into NATO. The North Atlantic Treaty requires the United States to come to the military defense of any member nation that is attacked. Every country admitted to NATO expands the risk of the United States being entangled in a European war, requiring the blood and treasure of the entire nation to support. In return, what does America get? The strength of the mighty Finnish and Swedish armies? If American interests are threatened, we always have the option of becoming involved. This measure would change the option into an obligation. I believe the admission of former Warsaw Pact nations into NATO has had a demonstrable destabilizing influence in Europe. Adding formerly neutral countries, as this measure proposes, would add still more trip-wires that could embroil America in a European war at a time when America’s greatest international threats are outside of Europe.
