President Trump has been given a historic opportunity "to make the nation’s central bank work for, not against, the American people." The path is now clear, according to Rick Scott and Senator Ted Cruz. Read all about it in Washington Examiner. washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-amer…

Democrats would rather shut down the federal government than help rural Americans get health care. Their demand to repeal the $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Program proves it. My latest for Washington Times Opinion. washingtontimes.com/news/2025/sep/…

It’s a powerful argument: GOP-led cuts to government handouts will endanger the party’s congressional majorities. This claim nearly derailed Medicaid reforms in the spring, but it's total hogwash. And here's the proof. My latest for RealClearPolitics. realclearpolitics.com/articles/2025/…

What are Democrats in blue states trying to hide? Instead of supplying food stamp data to the federal government, which pays for the program, 21 states filed a lawsuit to prevent this from happening.

Biden's COVID Credits are set to expire at the end of the year. But now Democrats want the TEMPORARY taxpayer giveaways to keep flowing forever... to the tune of billions lost to fraud & abuse per year. Yeah, call us skeptical. 🧵

Requiring proof of citizenship at the point of registration is a no-brainer. The Trump administration should be applauded for aligning the law to reflect this popular, common sense idea. FGA Legal Fellows Sofia DeVito and Steve Delie for TheBlaze. ⤵️ theblaze.com/columns/opinio…

Voters do NOT want taxpayer dollars funding welfare for illegal aliens or the billions more wasted through fraud and abuse. Democrats forced this shutdown over fringe, unpopular ideas—it's time to pass a clean CR! 👉 The FGA's full statment. thefga.org/press/fga-enco…

Health care transparency is the future. It will empower individuals, families, and patients to make informed decisions on cost and care. Thank you, Governor Mike Braun, for your leadership in Indiana!

It's a stunning statistic for the food stamp program: 42 states and DC have a payment error rate above 6%! What does this mean? Resources taken from the truly needy and misspent tax dollars. Thanks House Committee on Agriculture for highlighting The FGA's research on how OBBB reforms this mess.

Democrats aren't standing up for you. This Chuck Schumer Shutdown is on behalf of welfare for illegal aliens and Big Insurance. That's YOUR money—and they're holding you hostage to get it! Read all about it in Jonathan Ingram 🇺🇸's latest for Daily Wire. dailywire.com/news/who-benef…

Democrats have boxed themselves into a corner! They claim to oppose "greedy" health insurance companies, but their shutdown push is about a massive Big Insurance handout, courtesy of the taxpayers. FGA's Trevor Carlsen and our research in The Federalist. thefederalist.com/2025/10/16/dem…

The contrast couldn't be more clear. As Leader John Thune and Senate Republicans fight to reopen the government to keep programs for the truly needy from lapsing, Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats are using the truly needy as pawns in their shutdown game.
