03/01/2022
Tweet - "Despite the CDC relaxing mask guidance across most of the nation, the Biden admin is keeping its requirement that toddlers in Head Start programs wear masks -- even on the playground. This has been ridiculous from the start, & with CDC relaxing, it's even more absurd."
02/15/2022
Tweet - "At the Super Bowl, pro-mask elites cheered on their team maskless, yet the Biden admin wants some toddlers as young as two years old to be masked at all times, even if they're on the playground. My message to Joe Biden: Unmask America's children."

02/10/2022
Tweet - "Parents in South Dakota are better equipped to ensure the safety of their children than bureaucrats in Washington. It's a massive overreach from the federal government to be mandating that Head Start students, as young as two years old, wear masks."
02/08/2022
Tweet - "I'm a parent and a grandparent, and I'm outraged that the federal government is using taxpayer dollars to try to require children as young as 2 years old to wear face masks at Head Start schools -- even outside on the playground."

12/15/2021
Tweet - "Fewer options & higher costs -- that's Democrats' idea for childcare reform. A liberal think tank estimated their plan would RAISE costs $13,000 per child. But, Dems have shown they aren't interested in facts or figures, they've set their sights on socialism & aren't looking back."
12/08/2021
Tweet - "It may be easy for a wealthy Democrat politician to dismiss high inflation, but for families living paycheck to paycheck, the higher cost of groceries, heating, or gas can mean tough decisions -- like choosing between heating the house or filling up the car to get to work."
