The Simpson Standard

July 13th,2025

 

Dear [salutation],


First and foremost, today marks one year since President Trump survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. I join Americans nationwide today and thank God that President Trump is alive and well. I recently cosponsored a resolution that condemns the multiple attempts against the President's life, condemns those who incite violence against political officials, and honors the victims of the shooting. More to come on this resolution soon.


I also recently cosponsored legislation to protect Americans' energy choices. I'm a firm believer that energy freedom is key to strengthening our domestic energy supply and ensuring Americans have access to reliable sources that best meet their needs. That's why I recently cosponsored the Energy Choice Act. You can learn more about this bill below. 


In case you missed it: This week, I wrote an op-ed in the Washington Reporter regarding securing a stable, legal workforce for American agriculture. Whether we realize it or not, every American depends on agriculture every single day. From the milk in our morning coffee to the produce on our dinner plates, our farmers and ranchers help meet the needs of millions of Americans. You can read the full op-ed below.

 

God Bless You, President Trump!


 




 

Protecting Americans' Energy Choices


 

The Energy Choice Act will lower prices in the long run while defending consumer choice against blue-state politicians working to ban certain types of energy. As a longtime member and former Chairman of the Energy and Water Appropriations Subcommittee, I’ve been proud to support policies related to energy production.


I am also pleased that this bill supports both Idahoans’ needs and the Trump administration’s goals by protecting and unleashing American energy. You can read more about this bill here. 



 

Securing a Legal Workforce for American Agriculture


 

President Trump recently emphasized his commitment to protecting America’s farmers while removing violent criminals who have no place in our country. He is absolutely right. Our focus should remain on deporting dangerous criminals, not law-abiding farmers and ranchers.


Let me be clear: making meaningful reforms to the H-2A visa program and establishing a strong, legal immigration workforce for agricultural producers is not an amnesty deal. Our country needs a stable labor force to protect our food supply and ensure farmers can continue to do their jobs. The full op-ed is available here.
