Hartzler: It's time to pass the balanced budget amendment
Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler is leading efforts in the U.S. House to pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. As part of the August debt limit agreement, the House and Senate will have to vote between Oct. 1 and Dec. 31 on a balanced budget amendment. Hartzler, a co-sponsor of the amendment, is urging Representatives and Senators to approve what is truly the only effective way to get a grip on out-of-control Washington spending — and to pass the balanced budget amendment. “It is time for Washington to live within its means as American families must do,” ...
Hartzler says defense cuts are too drastic
The Super Committee charged with coming up with a trillion dollars in budget recommendationshas failed, and Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler says now defense spending is on the line. She says President Obama has defended those cuts as necessary for balancing the budget, and that’s not the case. She calls him irresponsible as Commander in Cheif to let the funding take a hit. She says the percentage of the budget allocated to defense spending is already the lowest its been in years, and more cuts would cripple national security. But not everyone in Congress agrees. She says she’ll be ...
Hartzler's Gay Marriage Stance Questioned By Student
A Republican congresswoman was put on the defensive this week by a gay student who questioned her controversial views on marriage equality. While speaking to a conservative group in Washington, D.C., at the beginning of June, Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.) likened allowing gay marriage to legalizing polygamy, incest and letting a 3-year-old get a driver's license. "The government has to set some parameters,” Hartzler said. At a public forum in Missouri on Wednesday, a Missouri med student asked Hartzler to explain her views. "We’re not the ones changing the policy, OK, so you ...

Stopping the special interest slush funds Today the House passed a bill to stop the Department of Justice from funneling settlement funds away from victims and towards special interest groups. Need for this legislation became apparent after a 20-month House Judiciary Committee investigation found that DOJ had engaged in a “pattern or practice” of systematically subverting Congress’s spending power by using settlements from financial institutions to funnel money to left-wing activist groups. This bill would end this practice and restore accountability to the appropriations process. H.R. 5063, the “Stop Settlement Slush Funds Act of 2016” The DOJ is systematically subverting Congress’s budget authority by requiring settling defendants to donate money to activist groups. • Mortgage settlement dollars have gone to groups such as La Raza, NeighborWorks, the National Urban League, and other left-leaning community organizations. The House Judiciary Committee’s investigation has discovered about half-a-billion dol |
Appeasement ≠ Foreign Policy “There is no security, no safety, in the appeasement of evil.” -Ronald Reagan Since signing a bad nuclear deal, giving Iran billions in sanctions relief and paying another $400 million in what amounts to ransom for the release of American prisoners in Iran, the State Department has now issued a travel advisory for Iran. The advisory warns Americans of the risks involved with travel to Iran, a designated state sponsor of terrorism, making sure “to reiterate and highlight the risk of arrest and detention of U.S. citizens…” Why, after numerous attempts to convince the American people Iran is a partner in diplomacy, would we be advised not to travel there, for fear of being taken prisoner? Maybe because more Americans have been detained since the prisoner swap for cash. It seems Iran has discovered a new stream of income. Actions have consequences and this administration's poor decisions continue to have ramifications. We must change course. We cannot continue le |
Hartzler Nixes Iran’s Access to U.S. Dollar WASHINGTON—One year after President Obama signed the Nuclear Deal with Iran, Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.) on Wednesday voted in favor of H.R. 4992, the United States Financial System Protection Act of 2016, a bill she co-sponsored aimed at safeguarding the American people and the global economy from Iran’s potential access to the U.S. dollar. “We have capitulated to Iran’s continued provocations long enough,” Hartzler said. “With growing and intensifying threats around the globe, now is not the time to needlessly prop up another potential threat. Opening Iran to the international market is an unprecedented step that only emboldens an already repressive regime and a state sponsor of terrorism.” The United States Financial System Protection Act of 2016 will prohibit the administration from allowing Iran access to the U.S. dollar in trade transactions and maintains Iran’s designation as a “primary money laundering concern.” It further maintains these |
Missourians head to Rio Families across America love to come together and watch the Olympics every four years. This year, the Olympic Summer Games will be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil from August 5 through 21. I wanted to make sure you knew one of Missouri’s own, J’den Cox from Columbia, will be competing as a member of the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team at the Olympic Summer Games. Currently a junior at Mizzou, J’den is now one of only two students in Mizzou’s history to qualify for the Olympic wrestling team. While J’den was on the U.S. National Wrestling Team, he was not guaranteed a place on the 2016 Olympics as the team did not place high enough. Despite these odds, J’den traveled to Mongolia where he competed and earned his place on this U.S. Olympic Team. It is great to see such dedicated and talented people like J’den right here in Missouri’s Fourth. I could not be more proud of J’den and look forward to watching him compete.
