WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Biggs introduced the Freedom for Families Act, a free-market alternative to federally-mandated paid family leave, which would make funds in a health savings account available for expenses during a period of leave for the birth or adoption of a child, or for a family illness. Congressman Biggs issued the following statement:
Democrats truly have Trump Derangement Syndrome. Kirstjen Nielsen is out as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and Ron Vitiello's name was pulled from the nomination to direct Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Yet the president's political opponents are howling about these changes as if they were supporters of Nielsen and Vitiello. In reality, change comes in political circles, and sometimes very often.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 2030, the Colorado River Drought Contingency PlanAuthorization Act. Congressman Biggs is an original cosponsor of this legislation. He issued the following statement:
The Mueller investigation was an illegitimate attack on the executive branch.
This statement remains true especially considering that the ethically conflicted, anti-Trump biased team of 19 full-time government prosecutors found that there was no "collusion" and no obstruction of justice. Mueller's findings demonstrate the weakness of the initial premise to investigate Trump, his family and campaign staff.
The left-wing media will never learn to tell the truth. That was reinforced when we learned that even though special counsel Robert Mueller's cleared President Trump of false claims against him, many in the media energetically spun the report in a way that perpetuated their anti-Trump narrative of the last two years.
Special Counsel Robert Mueller's final report found no evidence of collusion between the Trump team and Russians that influenced the 2016 election. Also, no evidence of obstruction of justice. Witnesses were harassed for the past two years to further the Democrats' and James Comey's political agenda. All indictments arising out of the investigation were wholly unrelated to any notion of members of the Trump campaign working with the Russians.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, House Judiciary Democrats voted to subpoena the full, unredacted Mueller Report, ignoring legal requirements for redactions of classified material. Congressman Biggs supports the release of this report while following the law regarding redactions and expects the disclosure to occur in the near future. He issued the following statement:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Biggs signed the discharge petition on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to force a vote on the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. Congressman Biggs issued the following statement:
One of our primary duties as members of Congress is to ensure our veteran constituents receive their health-care benefits in a timely manner. Unfortunately, too many of them in Arizona still do not.
We know this because veterans come daily into our offices seeking congressional intervention to resolve the bureaucratic nightmares that they face at the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Heath Care System.
Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) is calling on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to provide details on the steps U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) take before releasing undocumented immigrants.
