“Let me be very clear: Republicans did not bring on this government shutdown. Every single Republican in the U.S. House of Representatives — except one — voted to keep the government open through a seven-week continuing resolution. Every single Democrat in the House—except one—voted to close it. It is Senate Democrats, led by Chuck Schumer, who have voted eleven times to shut down the government, who are responsible for the delay in services and payments from the federal government.

Congressman Dan Meuser, Chairman of the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, today convened a hearing titled “Fraud in Focus: Exposing Financial Threats to American Families.” The hearing brought together leading experts to examine the alarming rise of financial scams targeting Americans of all ages and to begin charting solutions to protect families from scams.

Congressman Dan Meuser joined community members, and local leaders this afternoon at The Farm Store in Pottsville to highlight provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill and the positive impacts they will have for Pennsylvania farmers and families.

The event, hosted by Americans for Prosperity and the Pennsylvania Farm Bureau, highlighted the bill’s role in strengthening the state’s agricultural sector, and supporting small businesses—which in tandem, ensure Pennsylvania families have greater access to fresh, local food.
