“I voted for today’s common-sense legislation because it will protect taxpayers and make sure their tax dollars are never used to purchase crack pipes,” said Congressman John Moolenaar, who voted for the legislation on Wednesday. “I voted against Biden’s funding for crack pipes last year when I voted against the Democrats’ partisan $2 trillion spending bill. Today’s funding ban is a victory for taxpayers.”

“Our veterans deserve the best care and they should never have to wait a long time to receive it. By publicizing wait times, this legislation will promote accountability and help ensure transparency so our veterans and their families know they are receiving the care they deserve in a timely manner," said Moolenaar.

"Churches, crisis pregnancy centers, and even the homes of Supreme Court Justices have been the targets of far-left extremists," said Congressman Moolenaar. "Michigan residents should feel safe, regardless of their political views. They want to know that law enforcement is taking these threats seriously and working to stop the next attack. Attorney General Garland and the Department of Justice need to get to work and stop these far-left attacks."

“I voted for this legislation because it will keep Supreme Court Justices and their families safe while protecting their legal rulings from threats and intimidation. The past month of protests outside justices’ homes by far-left protesters has been nothing more than an intimidation campaign meant to influence the outcome of a Supreme Court case. Then, this past week, a man showed up outside a justice’s home and said he was there to assassinate the justice. Clearly, quick action is needed. President Biden should not wait and he should sign this bill into law immediately,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

“Michigan families and seniors are experiencing the highest price increases in four decades as inflation under President Biden is forcing them to take a pay cut. Their money does not go as far as it used to and they’re spending more on the essential items they need. They’re struggling with gas prices that cost more than $5 a gallon, while at the same time Biden and his team do little to expedite the approval of more American energy,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. "Biden should have listened to Republicans last year who warned his policies would cause these problems. Now, he should reverse course, end his misguided spending policies and unleash America's energy might.”

“Speaker Pelosi is leaving Supreme Court justices at risk and allowing far-left protesters to continue intimidating them and their families at their homes. It’s a disgraceful low in American politics. Every Democrat and Republican in the Senate already agreed to a bill to provide the justices with more security, but she continues to block it from a vote in the House. She should hold a vote on the Senate bill immediately,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

"Due-process is a vital right enjoyed by every American, and no citizen should have that taken away. I voted against this bill because it would allow a judge to take someone’s firearms from them for 14 days without an opportunity for the accused to legally defend themselves,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. “The Constitution is the cornerstone of our nation’s success and we must respect the rights it gives to individuals.”

“President Biden’s energy polices have hurt Michigan families and now they have broken the bank for local law enforcement," said Congressman John Moolenaar. "Unfortunately, no one will be surprised if more Michigan communities face the same problem as Isabella County. I am fighting for American energy independence including more oil and gas development, so Michigan families, and the law enforcement officials they rely on, have affordable and reliable energy.”
