More Secrets from the White House

Last week, we learned yet again that the Obama Administration’s claims of transparency are a charade. The Administration secretly delivered 400 million dollars in cash to Iran, a country that is known to sponsor terrorism.

By negotiating with terrorists, President Obama continues to put all Americans, especially those who are abroad, at risk of being captured or attacked. To read my full statement, please click

Road Trip!

Each year, I visit all 46 counties in South Carolina in order to meet constituents from across the state and hear their concerns. This is by far the most important and best part of my job.

I had a great time visiting Greenwood, Edgefield, McCormick, Saluda, Abbeville, Aiken, Bamberg, Barnwell, Allendale, Hampton and Colleton counties last week.
