Memorial Day is to memorialize the veterans who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Particularly those who died in battle or as a result of wounds sustained in battle. Memorial Day commemorates the men and women who died while in the military service of their country. However, there is a distinction between the two holidays: Republicans have worked hard to get economies across the country going again, and it is exciting to see how pro-growth polices are creating new opportunities in the Seventh District! This week, Marion County announced that their unemployment rate in April reached the lowest level in 30 years! l Additionally, Sunstrand, LLC announced they are opening their doors in Florence, creating 42 new jobs through an $8.4 million capital investment.On both Memorial Day and Veterans Day, it’s customary to spend time remembering and honoring those who have served the United States throughout the country’s history. We also passed Right-to-Try legislation, which gives terminally ill patients the chance to find a cure for their disease by improving access to experimental treatments.This legislation provides hope for patients and their families, and I am happy to say it is on the way to President Trump for his signature! We repealed a substantial portion of Dodd-Frank, easing regulations on community banks that provide credit to hard working small businesses and taxpayers. It also gives our troops a well-deserved pay raise! We continued our work to improve the lives of veterans by passing legislation that makes meaningful reforms to the Department of Veterans Affairs and ensures they have access to the quality care they have earned. We kept a promise to our military by passing the National Defense Authorization Act, which provides our military the training, equipment and support they need to be ready for any threat they may face. It was a busy week in Washington- House Republicans passed major legislation on behalf of our military, veterans, taxpayers and community banks, and terminally ill patients.
