Dear Friend,
Welcome back to my Week in Review newsletter. Please remember to follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube for regular updates on how I am serving the people of South Carolina!
President Biden’s Reckless Student Loan Cancellation Plan
President Biden’s plan to cancel $300 billion of student loans may seem compassionate on its face, but this latest giveaway is inflationary, illegal, and intended to help those who need it least: high-income college graduates. Meanwhile, blue-collar workers who did not go to college — folks like my mom, who worked double shifts as a nurse’s aide to keep food on our table — will be forced to foot the bill.
As our nation enters a recession, this latest step from the Biden administration proves once again that they fundamentally misunderstand the American economy. If President Biden truly wanted to help the struggling Americans he claims to fight for, he would immediately drop this irresponsible and dangerous plan.

Remembering the Failed Afghanistan Evacuation
This month one year ago, President Biden orchestrated a botched withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan. The Biden administration’s lack of foresight and planning to safely exit Afghanistan resulted in the loss of 13 U.S. servicemembers’ lives. Even today, many Americans and thousands of our Afghan allies remain trapped behind enemy lines in Afghanistan, despite President Biden’s promise to bring them out.
Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) and I recounted this tragic event and shared why we remain hopeful for the future of our nation.
I wrote more about the anniversary of this tragic event and why strong American leadership is necessary in a Fox News op-ed. Click here to read more!
Spilling the #SCSweetTea on a Ms. Brown!
This week we are spilling the Sweet Tea on Ms. Anna Brown, a CHS Foundation Teacher scholarship winner. Ms. Brown has been educating students and teachers throughout our nation on agriculture. South Carolina has millions of acres of farmland spread across the state and thousands of jobs related to agriculture.
Anna Brown’s dedication to bringing agriculture into the classroom is crucial to the future of the critical part of our economy. Great job!
