119th Congress

Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.Va., told Newsmax on Thursday that President Donald Trump's new tariffs will benefit American workers, particularly in his state.

"This has been a long time coming and it's something we've wanted to see in West Virginia for decades," Moore said on "Newsline." "Somebody to stand up, to have the courage to actually do something, to reverse this trend that has been destroying communities in West Virginia for decades, from NAFTA to China and the World Trade Organization."

Representative Riley Moore (R-WV) announces the Stop Chinese Communist Prying by Vindicating Intellectual Safeguards in Academia (Stop CCP VISAs) Act, a bill that would protect U.S. national security by banning Chinese nationals from obtaining student visas. “I don’t remember us having 300,000 Soviets studying here during the Cold War,” he says. “China is our near-peer threat in the world, and we need to act like that.”

New legislation from Congressman Riley Moore of West Virginia would significantly increase funding for low-income and working-class families to cover childcare costs.

This child care support could include paying a parent to stay at home or paying another relative to care for a child, The Daily Wire can first report — a major discussion point among social conservatives who argue in favor of promoting the family unit, rather than merely offering childcare options outside the home.

SHENANDOAH JUNCTION – Several Jefferson High School graduates returned to their alma mater on Saturday to help inform interested students about their experiences applying for and attending various military service academies, such as West Point.

The event was put on by Rep. Riley Moore, who has already written several letters of recommendation for students looking to attend military academies. He says it’s one of the best parts of his job.

“This is one of my favorite things that I do as a member of Congress,” Moore said. “I've had the opportunity to actually tell a couple young people that they've been accepted to West Point, the Naval Academy or the Air Force Academy, which is really a life changing event for them.”

New U.S. Rep. Riley Moore got himself appointed to the House Appropriations Committee, and now he is backing the trade tariffs enacted by President Donald Trump as a means to right the economy.

“I will say it was harder for me to get on the House Appropriations Committee than to win my general election,” Moore told those gathered for a business leaders lunch Thursday morning at Oglebay Park’s Wilson Lodge. “And it’s for a reason.

“Everybody wants on there. I’m the only freshman Republican or Democrat in the entire Congress who is on the Appropriations Committee.”
