Help is on the way for child care costs
President Trump and congressional Republicans have released the framework for a once-in-a-generation overhaul of the tax code. Setting aside the merits of the complete package, there’s one thing the both of us agree would improve the proposal for middle-class and low-income Americans trying to get ahead — a solution to the growing costs of child care in America. Ensuring young children have access to quality, affordable care is one of the most critical priorities facing many parents today.
Yoder might feel some relief after Republican wins Georgia's special election
Republican Congressman Kevin Yoder of Kansas is probably breathing a little easier today after seeing the results of Tuesday's special election in Georgia. In a suburban Atlanta district that looks remarkably like Yoder's 3rd District in suburban Kansas City, Republican Karen Handel edged out Democratic challenger Jon Ossoff, 52-48 percent, in what is being described as the most expensive U.S. House race in history.
Kevin Yoder and Emanuel Cleaver: We will remain unified in Thursday’s baseball game and in Friday’s debates
“I’m right and you’re evil.” Too many arguments these days, whether at kitchen tables across America or in the well of the House of Representatives, revolve around that premise. Early Wednesday morning, Rep. Steve Scalise, congressional staffer Zach Barth, and former staffer Matt Mika were injured when an extremist attacked congressional Republicans at a regularly-scheduled practice for the charity Congressional Baseball Game.
Republican Congressman: Socialized medicine is knocking on the door, America
It’s become so obvious that politicians on both sides of the aisle are acknowledging it and proposing solutions to fix it. The majority of House Republicans voted to pass the American Health Care Act in May, which currently awaits debate in the Senate. The majority of House Democrats have proposed an alternative fix called the Expanded & Improved Medicare for All Act, otherwise known as "single payer." This should send shivers down the spine of any tax-paying, Constitution-loving American.
Rep. Kevin Yoder: Markets over mandates, innovation over regulation, patients over bureaucrats
We are witnessing the dangerous collapse of Obamacare. The last insurance provider in Iowa offering plans on Obamacare’s individual marketplace announced it will stop selling them. That means 72,000 Iowans, including those with pre-existing conditions, will have no options for care in 2018. People across dozens of counties in Tennessee face the same fate.
Rep. Kevin Yoder: Here's a cause to unite Trump AND Clinton voters
There’s no two ways about it, America is divided. Gallup recently reported a record-high 77 percent of Americans describe our country using that word. Most of us can understand why, after spending last week at the Thanksgiving dinner table avoiding political landmines like Donald Trump’s electoral victory without the popular vote or Hillary Clinton’s email server and whether she should be prosecuted for it.
The Government Can Raid Your Emails Without Due Process. We’re Trying to Change That.
What if we told you any government agency was able to kick down your front door and rifle through your mail or hand-written letters in your home without probable cause? If you’ve watched enough Law and Order, you’d say that’s surely illegal. And you’d be right. Your paper documents are protected under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution from unreasonable search and seizure by agencies like the Justice Department or the Internal Revenue Service.
