Mike Lee on the War Against Diabetes

June 22, 2023

Sens. Mike Lee (R-UT), Ted Budd (R-NC), and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) introduced a bill aimed at empowering patients and improving the outdated regulation of islet transplantation, a cutting-edge treatment for individuals with Type 1 Diabetes. Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-MT) introduced a companion bill in the House of Representatives. Focused on patient-centered care, this effort would move islets to a more appropriate regulatory framework.

Of the bill, Sen Lee said, “This bill holds tremendous potential for those living with this chronic condition, offering the possibility of reducing or eliminating the need for injected insulin. By redefining islets as organs rather than drugs, we aim to align the regulatory framework with the scientific advancements in the field. This will promote innovation, enhance patient access to islet transplantation, and potentially improve outcomes and quality of life for individuals with Type 1 Diabetes. It is time for Congress to act and address the regulatory mismatch that currently hinders progress in islet transplantation. By granting regulatory authority to the appropriate agencies and prohibiting the classification of islets as drugs, we can unlock the full potential of this life-changing procedure.

Glenn Beck and AppleGlenn Beck and Apple

Thank you Senator Lee for speaking out about about Apple.

This week, Apple made the decision to remove all podcasts of conservative radio host, Glenn Beck, from their I-Tunes platform. Not only was this decision controversial, but unexplained.

“All of my podcasts have been removed from Apple/iTunes with no explanation,” Beck posted Wednesday on X (aka Twitter).

Staunch defender of the freedom of speech, Mike Lee, added his own comments to his feed:

“It looks like I may have to go elsewhere to listen to podcasts. If @Apple is going to remove @glennbeck’s program from its podcast offerings, a whole lot of us are going to say “we found an issue with @Apple.”

He continued, “With Glenn Beck having such a large audience, you’d think @Apple would be reluctant to take this step. Sometimes such behavior can be observed with companies that face so little competition in a particular field that they don’t fear alienating millions of customers.”

Thank you Senator Lee for striving to hold big tech companies responsible for their decisions and defending the right that every American voice is heard.

Thank you Senator Lee for speaking up about the speakership. Along with you, we wish Rep. Jim Jordan success in the race for Speaker of the House.

In honor of Columbus Day we thought we would nickname the three waterfronts that Mike Lee is battling after Christopher Columbus’s three famous ships.

#1 The Nina – The Define the Mission Act

According to Senator Lee, the United States has already given $113 billion in support to Ukraine with $24 more billion requested. Senator Lee, along with others are asking the White House to give an accountability on the following before being granted more aid:

  • A clear definition of the U.S. national interests at stake.
  • An estimation of the resources required, including U.S. personnel, materials, and funding.
  • A forecast of security assistance to be received from NATO allies within the upcoming year.
  • A thorough assessment of the impact of Russia’s dominance in the European natural gas market on concluding the conflict in Ukraine.
  • Furthermore, the proposed strategy cannot be contingent on the U.S. providing funds for Ukrainian reconstruction.

#2 The Pinta – Repeal the FACE Act

The FACE Act allows for government interference to peaceful protests outside abortion facilities. Senator Lee has correctly identified that this act is being abused and interfering with the freedom of speech rights granted by the Constitution. Of the bill, Senator Lee said, “Our Constitution reserved general police power to the states. Congress infringed on the states’ police power when they passed the FACE Act. The Biden DOJ has weaponized this constitutionally suspect law against pro-life sidewalk counselors while failing to protect pregnancy centers and churches from violent attacks. It’s time to repeal the FACE Act.”

#3 The Santa Maria – Protecting Our Kids from Harmful Research Act

On October 5th, Senator Mike Lee introduced the Protecting Our Kids from Harmful Research Act, a bill prohibiting federal funding of gender transition research on minors.  Medical interventions to transition gender are experimental, irreversible, and often fail to produce the intended effects of improving patients’ mental health.  This bill would prohibit federal funding from being used in research or publications that seek to establish or affirm gender identities that are incongruent with a minor’s biological sex.

Happy Birthday, Janet Lee Chamberlain!Happy Birthday, Janet Lee Chamberlain!

Happy Birthday tomorrow, Janet Lee Chamberlain.

Behind every great man is a great mother. Senator Mike Lee’s mother, Janet Lee Chamberlain is one of the great ones.

Janet supported her husband, Rex, who would become famous in his service as United States Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Division, Solicitor General of the United States, and President of Brigham Young University. Not only did Janet accompany him on many of his adventures and assignments, but she successfully raised their seven children during these years.

In her speeches while serving BYU, she explained that she prioritized teaching her children the value of hard work and overcoming obstacles.

Her sons, Mike and Thomas would become public figures in their own right. Thomas became a Justice on the Utah Supreme Court for twelve years. Senator Mike Lee, currently in his third term in the U.S. Senate is one of the nation’s foremost experts about the Constitution.

Both sons were also on President Donald Trump’s short list to serve on the United States Supreme Court, Mike in 2018 and Thomas in 2020. A Fox News reporter once credited Janet for that success because of the way she “raised her boys.”

“…The hand that rocks the cradle, is the hand that rules the world.”William Ross Wallace

Because of Janet Lee Chamberlain’s considerable hand in Mike Lee’s life, we would be in good hands with him as our PRESIDENT. Thank you Janet, for your contributions to America.

On Senator Lee’s Facebook Page, he made a touching tribute to his mother: “I’m grateful for my mom, who’s consistent example has always made me want to be more kind, patient, forgiving, and considerate.”

Thank you Senator Lee for your example. You seem to have the proper attitude about your mother.

Mike Lee should run for president. He’s right on the money.
