Respectful disagreement is the key to a strong democracy. Thanks to Chris Evans, Mark Kassen, and the @ASP team for encouraging bipartisan dialogue and making policy more accessible to the public.
So glad to meet with Chris Evans and @MarkKassen to talk about @ASP. Keeping folks informed on the issues that matter most is important work!
Chris Evans and Mark Kassen stop by the White House this week to talk with young people about the importance of civic engagement.
Rep. Cammack joined @RepAdamSmith for an @ASP Counterpoints segment yesterday alongside @MarkKassen and Captain America himself, Chris Evans. The group had a lively discussion about term limits debuting soon on the platform. 🇺🇸

Whether you live near an airport or miles away, peace of mind and a full night’s sleep is something everybody deserves. I spoke with @ASP about my bill to combat excessive airplane noise, the Quiet Communities Act.
What is noise pollution and why does the government regulate it? Congresswomen @RepGraceMeng recently reintroduced legislation to reopen the Office of Noise Abatement and Control. Learn more here: l8r.it/5qXf
The 4th Amendment does not say: “If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.” It does protect privacy and we need to reclaim it to #DefendFreedom.
The Protecting Americans’ Data From Foreign Surveillance Act of 2023 is a bipartisan bill that protects American data from foreign-owned companies like TikTok. Learn more about the bill with @WarrenDavidson. 🔗 l8r.it/RFSn
I have worked in the impoverished and challenged country of Haiti many times in the last decade. Haiti is in our own backyard and I absolutely believe the US needs to intervene, not only for the sake of the Haitian people, but selfishly also for the security of our own nation.
Haiti has been experiencing a serious humanitarian crisis fueled by gang violence, leaving residents to grapple with food shortages, murders, kidnappings, and more. Watch @RepGregMurphy talk more on the crisis here. astartingpoint.com/dailies/muO7gj…
Central Bank Digital Currencies are part of Chinese-style creepy surveillance states.
The Federal Reserve has no official digital currency but is considering the creation of a central bank coin, given the rise in popularity of digital currencies. Hear from @WarrenDavidson & @RepBillFoster at the link in bio or open Public’s app. 🔗 l8r.it/mqMH

It’s “Knives Out” for congressional stock trading. More from my conversation with @ChrisEvans, @MarkKassen, and @ASP on my bipartisan bill — the TRUST in Congress Act — to ban lawmakers from buying, selling, or trading individual stocks:

If we don't pay teachers what they deserve, our children and future generations are the ones who will suffer.
The U.S. is currently ranked 7th in average teacher salary internationally, but is the average minimum pay too low? @RepAdams joins ASP to talk about the American Teacher Act, a proposal to increase the minimum teacher salary to $60,000. Watch here: l8r.it/ahut
Because our criminal justice system prioritizes punishment over rehabilitation, our country's per-capita prison population is the highest in the world. In fixing our broken criminal justice system, we must address the systemic causes of crime and take steps to reduce recidivism.
The U.S. has the highest per-capita incarcerated population in the world, and at least nine states and the federal system are operating at more than 100% capacity. Hear @KevinKileyCA and @RepBonnie discuss prison overcrowding here: l8r.it/XI3L
The Supreme Court exists to be a check and balance on our government— it should never be used as a political football to gain power. Dusty is leading a bill to stop calls to pack the Court & #KeeptheNine.
When the first Supreme Court was established in 1789, there were only six judges. Eighty years later, in 1869, they increased it to nine judges, which remains to this day. Hear @RepDustyJohnson on why he thinks there should never be more than nine judges. l8r.it/BamL
