Better Government
Our Founders accomplished a monumental task when they drafted our Constitution over 230 years ago. The system of checks and balances and separation of powers they created has carried our country through immense challenges which would have caused other systems of government to collapse.
However, this system has been damaged by career politicians who have engaged in tricks and games to protect and expand their power in ways the Founders would be horrified by today. This has led to many serving decades in Congress, near-criminal degrees of waste and self-dealing, and a national debt our kids and grandkids will be forced to repay.
As a member of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, I’m committed to advancing common-sense reforms which will put a stop to this waste, fraud, and abuse once and for all.
A balanced budget amendment, congressional term limits, single-issue bills, and a ban on proxy voting and earmarks are all simple changes we can make which will go a long way toward restoring the vision of limited government our Founders had all those years ago.

Washington, D.C., September 9th, 2024 —Today, Congresswoman Nancy Mace, Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Cybersecurity and Government Innovation sent a letter to President Biden and Vice President Harris seeking answers on alleged information suppression campaigns conducted by the Administration, particularly in the lead-up to national elections.
"The House Foreign Affairs Committee's report on the Afghanistan withdrawal exposes the Biden-Harris Administration's staggering incompetence and willful deception. Their reckless disregard for American lives, obsession with optics over security, and blatant lies to the public led to a catastrophic exit which cost 13 U.S. service members their lives. They have turned Afghanistan back into a terrorist safe haven. They own this.”

"The VA should be focused on caring for those who served, not doubling as a campaign office in Michigan. The Biden-Harris Administration crossed a line with Executive Order 14019, using the VA for partisan voter registration. Every document, email, and conversation involved must be fully investigated to ensure the VA is serving veterans, not a political agenda."
"Freedom of speech is the bedrock of our country and should be for any nation we have bilateral relations. Brazil's Supreme Court decision to not only ban access to the social media platform X, but to also fine people who use it, is a dangerous blow free speech. One we must strongly condemn."
We’ve all heard it before - the GOP has a “woman” problem.
The party rarely won among men, and has lost year after year among women. One of my goals as a woman and a Republican is to change that. The Republican Party can do two things at once: protect life while also standing up for women.
"Protecting women and children from sexual predators should be one of our nation’s top priorities. While some in D.C. play politics, our most vulnerable are left at risk. It’s essential all of our relevant agencies are fully committed to this mission. We need to ensure every report of abuse is thoroughly investigated and that no child falls through the cracks. Our focus must be on protecting the innocent lives of the most vulnerable, not on political distractions."
"DC’s case against Donald Trump is a clear example of when our justice system is weaponized to pursue political vendettas against a former president. This latest indictment is nothing more than political lawfare, a shameless attempt by a biased DC court to silence voices they can't control. We are witnessing a two-tiered justice system where the powerful are protected, and their opponents are hunted down."
