What an incredible couple of days it has been in Dallas, TX at the 2026 Midterm Republican Convention!
As Chairman of the West Virginia Republican Party, it was an honor to lead our West Virginia delegation throughout the convention. It was an honor to be asked to sit in the Presidential Box for an hour today.
We heard about the vision of the Republican Party, the work that the Trump Administration and Republicans in Congress have done to keep their campaign promises, and laid out a stark contrast between the Republican vision of America and what the Democrats are offering. Most importantly, we emphasized the importance of getting out to vote in November.
On Wednesday, for almost two hours, we heard from President Trump as he laid out the many campaign promises he has carried through less than halfway through his second term. Last night, we heard from Vice President JD Vance on the future of our country, defending our God-given rights, and standing up for American workers and the forgotten men and women.
What a fantastic experience!
We were also honored to have House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, Congressman Jim Jordan, RNC Co-Chair KC Crosbie, Joe Mitchell, Larry Pack, and Sec. Linda McMahon attend our West Virginia events as well as State Parties from Kentucky, Montana, North Dakota, and others.

The stakes in November are too high to sit this one out.
In just one month, our Victory Program volunteers knocked 2,000+ doors, made 1,300+ calls, and helped set up support for 10+ Republican candidates down ballot — with six new staffers now on the ground across the state.
This is how West Virginia stays red: neighbor to neighbor, door to door.
If you want to get involved, email: Danielle@wvgop.org and we will get you started this week.

This is the heart of the H-1B and OPT SCAM.
Corporations and our own government have chosen to import cheap foreign labor because it’s easier than investing in American education and training up the next generation of skilled American workers. And now they’re addicted to the cheap foreign labor.
If we’re serious about putting America First, we have to cut out the rot, terminate these programs, and get serious about developing American talent.
Train Americans. Hire Americans. Put Americans first.
🚨 This may be one of the most important H-1B arguments I’ve heard.
MIT economist and Nobel laureate Daron Acemoglu, himself a former H-1B immigrant, says America’s reliance on skilled immigration has created a dangerous incentive:
Instead of fixing American education and developing American talent, elites can simply import the skills they need.
His point is devastating.
America has millions of kids struggling academically while we’re constantly told employers must recruit overseas because Americans don’t have the necessary skills.
Acemoglu says we’ve effectively “given up on the education of Americans” because skill gaps can be filled by importing workers.
Think about that incentive.
Why spend 15 years fixing K-12 education?
Why build serious STEM pipelines?
Why train Americans?
Why force companies to invest in entry-level workers?
Just import someone already trained.
Skilled immigration should supplement American talent, not become an excuse for failing to develop it.
And this isn’t coming from someone who opposes skilled immigration. Acemoglu explicitly says he wants skilled immigration while also restoring America’s commitment to educating its own citizens.
That’s the conversation we should be having.

Restoring American industrial independence is not optional!
In my new essay for @AmericanAffrs, I tell the story of Weirton Steel and make the case that America's hollowed out industrial heartland isn’t just an economic disaster but also a national security crisis.

President Biden may have pardoned Dr. Fauci, but that doesn’t mean he’s off the hook.

Pleased to present Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe with the West Virginia Distinguished Service Medal in Martinsburg today. This honor recognizes conspicuous and distinguished service in the line of duty. He certainly earned this medal after he was ambushed in a targeted and brutal attack in DC on November 26, 2025.
The citizens of our state will never forget your bravery, and your service to our state and nation. All of us thank god that you are recovering and making progress every day!

Thank you @POTUS for approving West Virginia’s disaster declaration, delivering $4.5 million for our communities impacted by the devastating storms just two weeks ago.
These funds will allow areas of our state that were hit the hardest to begin rebuilding and help communities recover stronger in the weeks and months ahead.

I spoke to President Trump and thanked him for acting quickly to approve this request and deliver help to the people of West Virginia.
Families in our hardest-hit communities have endured tremendous hardship, and this expedited approval will provide critical assistance as they begin the difficult process of rebuilding their lives. This is an important first step.
Approximately $4.5 million is available now, and we expect that amount to grow as additional damage information is reviewed.
