More on Congress
This week marked one year since President Biden took office. I wish I could say happy anniversary, but it isn't that happy. Let's be honest, it's been a bumpy ride.
I'm not somebody who just complains. I also focus on solutions, so I'm going to identify four areas where I think this administration has failed and how we can do a better job as a country.
U.S. Reps. Dusty Johnson (R-SD) and Tom Cole (R-OK) on Jan. 13 introduced a bipartisan bill that would grant a federal charter to the National American Indian Veterans Inc.
Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) issued a statement following the U.S. Supreme Court decision to block President Biden's vaccine mandate for large employers in the United States.
Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) congratulated Congressional App Challenge winners, sisters Katelyn and Casie Dale, from Spearfish, South Dakota.
As my third year in Congress comes to a close, I have been reflecting on all that has happened in the short span of a year. I started off the year being sworn in for my second term as South Dakota's lone representative and was appointed to two committees—the Agriculture Committee and the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.
The U.S. House of Representatives recently approved a bipartisan bill introduced by U.S. Rep. Dusty Johnson (R-SD) to create a library for cattle contracts within the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
Last week, the National Defense Authorization (NDAA) for fiscal year 2022 passed the House with a 363-70 vote. This week it passed the Senate. The annual NDAA includes strong policies for our military and wins for South Dakota's Ellsworth Air Force Base and the future of the B-21 bomber mission.
Bipartisan legislation supported by U.S. Rep. Dusty Johnson (R-SD) and hailed as the first major overhaul of federal regulations for the global shipping industry in over 30 years received approval from the U.S. House of Representatives on Dec. 8.
There's a classic narrative that nothing gets accomplished in Washington. I'll admit there's a lot of disfunction in government, but this week that wasn't the case.
