Dear Friend,
I am writing to you today from Washington, DC. After spending the week in Memphis, I came back to attend many events surrounding the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington taking place in our nation’s capital over the next week, including a breakfast with Dr. C.T. Vivian tomorrow.
Dear Friend,
I always enjoy the time I am able to spend in Memphis, being with friends, and in my home. The weather has been glorious this week and Elvis and Tiger Football are in the air. We’ve been meeting with lots of groups and individuals as well as our constituents and mentioning our accomplishments and disappointments. Keep on reading to learn more about my week.
Dear Friend,
First of all, many of you know that this week has been difficult and trying for me personally. I wanted to take a moment at the beginning of my newsletter to extend my heartfelt thanks to all of you who have stood with me. I am energized by and appreciative of all the words of support and understanding that I have received from you. Thank you.
Dear Friend,
I hope you and your loved ones had a happy Fourth of July weekend. This week, Congress returned to Washington and the House continued debate on the Fiscal Year 2014 Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act. Read on to learn what else I’ve been up to this week.
Dear Friend,
Tomorrow, we celebrate our nation's independence. When our forefathers declared independence from Great Britain 237 years ago, they set us on a course that led us to become the greatest nation the world has ever known. We are truly lucky to be here.

Dear Friend,
This past Monday, I hosted more than 150 Memphis small business owners and entrepreneurs at my third Federal Procurement Fair. Local business owners had a chance to learn about the federal government contracting process directly from representatives from a host of federal agencies, and I was pleased to see such a strong showing from the 9th District.
