; I'm announcing my candidacy for the new #NY24, which includes areas I currently represent in Congress. I'm honored to have received the support of President Trump, GOP Chair @EliseStefanik, and several county Republican and Conservative chairs.
We are on our way!

Congratulations to Los Cien for their 2nd Annual Puente y Ganas Award Dinner recognizing Sonoma County’s Latino bridge builders and champions.
Proud to recognize this year’s winners with Congressional certificates in honor of the work they do to build up & support our community.
What is happening in Floyd County?
Thanks @ShaunAbreu @DRichardsQNS. Speeding is a major factor in four of every five fatal crashes in NYC — when the speed safety cameras come on, we have the potential to save lives.
Speed cameras don't work if they don't work when people speed.
To save lives, our speed cameras need to be on 24/7.
From me and @DRichardsQNS:

I applaud each of the talented artists who participated in the competition. I’d also like to thank the art teachers & families who supported them. Great job!
“[House Republicans] are coming up to me and saying, 'oh, Chip, you guys in the @freedomcaucus are daring to force votes on a bunch of bills and making us vote. We've missed eight fundraisers this week.'
...Oh, I'm sorry. Did we interfere with your steak dinner?" -Rep Roy

Title 42 was always about stoking xenophobic hate and inflicting harm on Black and brown migrants.
It must not be allowed to stand and I'm glad the Biden Administration is appealing this cruel ruling.
BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked the Biden administration from ending Title 42 — a controversial border policy that has allowed officials to rapidly turn back migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border nearly 2 million times.

Title 42 was never meant to be a permanent solution but now it’s more important than ever. Today’s ruling prolong its rollback but the Admin will still look to repeal it.
Instead of ending T42 we need to look at policies to end the border crisis for good. https://www.expressnews.com/opinion/commentary/article/Gonzales-Why-Title-42-is-still-necessary-17188333.php?utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=referral
Today, I met with county commissioners, community members, FEMA, and fire fighters in Mora to assess damages and express gratitude.
After the @WHO so mishandled the #COVID19 outbreak in Wuhan, President Trump wisely took us out of the WHO. Since President Biden foolishly put us back in, there need to be reforms to hold bad actors such as the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) accountable.
#ICYMI this week, I supported a bill to provide the FDA with the resources to address the urgent baby formula shortage and prevent it from ever happening again. No parent should be experiencing the desperation and anxiety the baby formula shortage is causing. It is heartbreaking.
Great news coming out of Louisiana tonight. A federal judge just blocked the Biden Administration from ending Title 42. We MUST ramp up border security big time, not weaken it.

Let's make the wealthiest Americans pay their fair share.
BREAKING: Uncovered IRS tax records of 26 U.S. billionaires show they paid an average tax rate of just 4.8% from 2013 to 2018, despite collectively gaining $500 billion in wealth
Effective tax rates
Buffett: 0.1%
Bezos: 1.1%
Zuckerberg: 1.1%
Koch: 1.3%
Bloomberg: 1.8%
Musk: 2.1%
We must continue this fight to end Title 42 — It’s inhumane and fails to uphold our American values.
And it must end now! https://apple.news/ApuUmM-BxT6KLbua7wmE6yA
