In today's global economy, maintaining strong relationships with foreign nations is essential to our national economy and security. Our foreign policy approach must increase trade, promote economic growth, and advance democratic principles while protecting the health, safety, labor and environmental rights of all nations.

I am proud to serve on the House Committee on Oversight and Reform. Through this committee, I will continue to work with my colleagues to advance the interests of the United States at home and abroad.

One of my key priorities in Congress is to advance cybersecurity standards to protect our government from cyberattacks. I championed the Internet of Things Cybersecurity Improvement Act which established minimum cybersecurity standards for government purchased devices. This bill ensured the government purchases secure devices and closes existing vulnerabilities to protect our national security and the personal information of American families. 

Protecting the hard-working men and women who serve on the front lines of America's foreign policy and defense efforts is a responsibility I take seriously. America's global standing and security directly affect every one of us. I'm committed to ensuring that our military and diplomatic servants have the best resources available to strengthen America's relationships with our international partners, defend our nation's core values, and promote the rights of people across the world.
