Congressman Biggs will share his perspective on national legislation and “what’s really going on” in Washington, DC. He will provide his analysis of the impact on our freedom of adhering to the United States Constitution and the rule of law versus socialism. “Keeping Our Constitutional Republic” will address the effects of recent and proposed legislation on our local, national, and global interests. After hearing from Congressman Biggs, you will know “the rest of the story” that you may not be hearing on your nightly news channel!
