A Conversation with Congresswoman Jen Kiggans | Debt-Ceiling Crisis — Restoring Fiscal Responsibility | National Security Crisis on the US Southern Border | Condemns Partisan Misinformation on Veterans' Benefits

May 16th, 2023

Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with U.S. Congresswoman Jen Kiggans, former U.S. Navy helicopter pilot and geriatric nurse. Jen Kiggans was winged as a naval aviator in 1995 and served our nation for a total of 10 years as a helicopter pilot flying H-46 and H-3 helicopters, completing two deployments to the Persian Gulf and flying operational missions in the Balkan region. Congresswoman Kiggans is a Member of the House Armed Services Committee, House Committee on Veterans' Affairs and Committee on Natural Resources.

She served Virginians in public office as State Senator and worked in our nation’s healthcare system as a Geriatric Nurse Practitioner, serving America’s aging population.

We are focusing on the following topics:

— The looming debt-ceiling crisis, America's federal debt at $31 trillion and the significance of returning fiscal responsibility to Congress.

— The national security crisis on the U.S. southern border enters a new dangerous phase as Title 42 expires and new surge of illegal migrants places the nation at greater risk. Congresswoman Kiggans shares about her recent visit to the southern border with Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy and her colleagues, as well as the efforts being undertaken to address the crisis at the border.

— Congresswoman Jen Kiggans (VA-02) led 55 of her colleagues in writing a scathing letter to Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Secretary Denis McDonough condemning the dishonest, partisan use of the VA to spread fear and anxiety among America’s veterans regarding their benefits.

— H.R. 1 | The Lower Energy Costs Act.
