Yesterday, Congresswoman Erin Houchin met with President Trump and House leadership in Washington, D.C. to discuss ongoing legislative priorities. Following the meeting, Houchin described the encounter as "productive and encouraging," noting that President Trump was "in high spirits and eager to continue making good on his promises to restore this country."

Houchin highlighted the executive orders issued by President Trump on his first day in office, describing them as "common sense" measures that have garnered widespread support. She emphasized the collective eagerness among lawmakers to advance significant portions of Trump's agenda through a reconciliation package. This package aims to address issues such as border security, energy security, and economic restoration.

Additionally, Houchin expressed anticipation for advancing the Laken Riley Act. This legislation seeks to ensure that illegal migrants who commit violent crimes are detained and deported. Houchin looks forward to sending this act to the President's desk for approval.
