Representative Juan Ciscomani: Thank you @POTUS for signing the HALT Fentanyl Act into law, permanently designating fentanyl as a Schedule 1 drug — a vital step to combat the crisis.

Representative Abe Hamadeh: May 2026 is far too long to wait for Chairman Powell to leave the Federal Reserve. He should resign now and stop burdening our economy with his blind partisanship and fiscal mismanagement.
