Looking Ahead

I don't think any of us are sad to see 2020 in the past. Now that the COVID-19 vaccine has already been distributed to millions of Americans, we have hope for an exciting year ahead. I am eager to get back to Washington, D.C. and carry on important work that affects Arkansans and all Americans.

One of the things I'm most looking forward to in this new Congress is taking on the lead Republican role on the House Committee on Natural Resources. A lifetime spent in the Natural State has uniquely equipped me for this role, and we're blessed with a rich variety of wildlife and public land here in Arkansas. I can't wait to take the lessons we've learned about how to steward our resources well and apply them to the country.

This year, I'll continue working on legislation that directly impacts Arkansas, like the Fair Care Act and the Trillion Trees Act. I also learned a lot on my 2020 district visits and I want to take these conversations and turn them into actionable bills we can pass through the House.

Ultimately, though, this year I'm here to serve you in Congress. Even though COVID-19 restrictions aren't allowing my offices to be physically open, we are always available to take your calls, listen to your concerns, and help any way we can. I'm looking forward to the day when I can invite you back to D.C. to tour our Capitol and sit down with me for an in-person meeting. Here's to a blessed year ahead!
