You gotta remember, Deb Fisher, one of my best friends, she voted for it in the Senate. [Iowa Republican Sen.] Chuck Grassley, who admire tremendously, voted for it, i thought it was a good bill. Now, there were some things added to it when we were in the minority. I think it went from an A bill to a B bill. But the reason I say that is because I was working on this when Trump was president — it was one of Trump's priorities, it was one of his bills. Just because it was good for President Trump and then ‘bad’ when Biden does it, I don't follow that. I'm an American first. I want America to succeed and this bill was good under Trump, it was good under Biden as far as I'm concerned.

I’ve been in direct contact with many service members over the last year – including many from Nebraska – who have legitimate concerns about the way the Pentagon has handled the processing and disposition of their requests for religious and medical exemptions, orders are orders,and I received every vaccine known to man when I served in uniform, but maybe it’s time to reassess this particular order. Based on the president’s recent statements on the pandemic, I’m personally not convinced we’ve struck the right balance between military risk and the Constitution.We need to consider the serious recruiting and retention problems now facing the military, and review actions taken against those who did not get the vaccine.

I felt like we needed to have a section on our military and national security. You've got Russia and Ukraine. China eyeballing Taiwan. We have a recruiting problem right now. So a lot of issues with the military, with readiness and morale.

Tom Emmer, and I think Kevin( McCarthy) and Steve( Scalise), are all saying we should be focusing on the issues -- and they're right, our focus should be on 2022. If it's 2024, it hurts us. . . We need to be focused on winning this November, and I think anything that takes your eyes off that, it could cost us a couple of victories.
