Thank you from the bottom of my heart! We would not be able to take our message of fiscal restraint and lower taxes to Washington without your tireless efforts, and of course, your votes.
The results on Tuesday showed that the American people want to change what's coming out of Washington. It is time to get our country back on the course to prosperity through lower taxes, less spending, and getting our economy moving again. And it is up to you, the citizens, to hold your elected officials accountable on these issues that affect your day-to- day life.

I was making my way toward Las Cruces yesterday when I saw a long time friend along the highway, and stopped to visit with him and his wife. Tom and Pam are ranchers east of Mayhill. They have endured the rigors of ranching for decades in this very rural part of New Mexico.

Our grandson returned to Arkansas yesterday after spending 2 weeks with Cynthia and me in New Mexico. About a month ago our granddaughter was with us for a couple of weeks.
We had him tag along to campaign events. He got to meet Susana Martinez, Matt Chandler and a couple of the other candidates here in New Mexico.

The mission of our C-130 unit in country was to fly things around. We flew food, ammunition, people, vehicles, etc. We hauled “stuff”. In the GI vernacular we were trash haulers.

In 1971 when my pilot training was complete I was one of two members of class 71-06 at Reese AFB to be assigned as copilots to the 463rd TAW at Clark AFB. Most of our missions were out of Cam Rahn Bay AB, Viet Nam. When we were there the C-130 detachment was on a side of the base sort of by itself.

When I completed pilot training in January 1970, I received orders to fly C-130’s out of Clark Air Base in the Philippines. My transition training into the C-130 Hercules was at Little Rock AFB then, I learned the tactical flying we would experience in Viet Nam at Pope Air Force Base, North Carolina. The transition training instructor, Major Shelton, was one of the few Black pilots I encountered in the Air Force. He was as good as any C-130 pilot I met during my Air Force service. And because he was good, I had good training.

All taxpayers should know the federal government is broke. When governments are broke they look to your assets. They are now looking to take your 401-k and your private retirement accounts. During my time in Congress, I heard rumblings like that, but always from the most extreme members on the left. Now, it is being proposed for real.

My wife, Cynthia, deserved better than she got. She is wonderful, caring, gentle and filled with light that on most days seems to come directly from God. On rare occasions the source of that light may be a far different source. I can never be complacent around her…
She says the funniest things and remembers forever.

Food prices for the month rose by 2.4%, its sixth consecutive monthly increase and the largest jump in over 26 years. NIA believes that a major breakout in food inflation could be imminent, similar to what is currently being experienced in India.
