Rep. Williams expressed how proud he is to represent the 25th District, spoke about his duties in Washington D.C. as a congressman and his present concerns for our nation which included protecting our borders, energy (attack on fossil fuels) and the national debt. Rep. Williams, who has a Dodge Jeep dealership, is one of the few businessmen in congress and said because of that fact, he lives with legislations just like all of his constituents. He represents 1 million people in the new district 25. The decisions he makes in congress are based on the constitution, conscience and what’s good for the USA he said, noting that it is important to know what his constituents want. Williams feels that the USA is still the greatest country on earth and and he wants to see its status in the world remain accordingly. In closing Rep. Williams discussed several subject matters with those attending including Ukraine and foreign aid in general, lowering taxes and cutting regulations.
Congressman Roger Williams is the Chairman of the House Small Business Committee and member of the House Financial Services Committee.
