Two days later, on March 14, 2025, he highlighted his conversation with the American Federation for Children Press about educational access. He tweeted: “Great to speak with @afcpress about the importance of making sure every child has access to the education that is best for them.”
Later that day, he announced the introduction of new legislation focused on health care choices. He wrote: “This week, I introduced the Health Care Sharing Ministry Tax Parity Act with @RepGregMurphy and Rep. Chris Smith.”
