U.S. Congressman Barry Loudermilk
 
  Rep. Loudermilk looks forward to this event every year; welcoming pastors and their families from Georgia's 11th District to our nation's Capitol. This year, a group of 56 made the long trek and had to endure some of D.C.'s unpredictable weather and a very busy schedule. Nonetheless, it was a memorable for all involved. 

One of the highlights of their visit was a night-time tour of the U.S. Capitol (pictured above), lead by WallBuilders founder, David Barton. WallBuilders is an organization dedicated to presenting America’s forgotten history and heroes, with an emphasis on the moral, religious, and constitutional foundation on which America was built.

  Press Release of the Week: Right-Size Regulation for Financial Institutions
 
  Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) issued the following statement regarding House passage of the Comprehensive Regulatory Review Act (H.R. 4607):

 “I introduced the Comprehensive Regulatory Review Act because the consistent message I’m hearing from financial institutions back home, especially the small community banks and credit unions, is they are overburdened with regulatory paperwork – much of which is outdated or not applicable to their industries. They describe the impact it has on their business as ‘death by a thousand cuts.’ This bipartisan piece of legislation will require these regulatory agencies to do a review of all their regulatory portfolios every seven years, instead of once a decade as they are doing now. It also requires them to remove any outdated regulations and tailor other regulations to actually fit industries they are overseeing.” Read More ▸

In the District: 2018 Congressional Art Competition
Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) today announced the 2018 Congressional Art Competition, a contest that recognizes the artistic talents of high school students in the 11th Congressional District and nationwide.

“I believe some of the most talented young artists live right here in Georgia’s 11th Congressional District. The artwork we’ve seen in previous years has been amazing, and I believe this year will build on that tradition,” said Rep. Loudermilk. “The winners of this competition will not only have their artwork displayed at the U.S. Capitol, but will have the opportunity to share this exciting accomplishment with their friends and family for years to come.”

The competition is open to all high school students who reside in the 11th Congressional District. To showcase the remarkable artistic talent of students throughout the District, The RobertKent Galleries will publically display all submissions for this year’s Congressional Art Competition from April 16 through April 26, 2018. A panel of local artists will serve as judges and determine the contest award winners. Read More ▸
