Congressman Steven M. Palazzo is proud to serve the people of South Mississippi's 4th Congressional District,which includes Mississippi's Gulf Coast and Pine Belt regions.As a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, current member of the Mississippi National Guard,and former member of the Mississippi House of Representatives, Congressman Palazzo has a record of service that began long before he was first sworn into office on January 5, 2011.
Steven currently serves on the House Appropriations Committee, where he sits on two subcommittees: the Commerce, Justice, Science subcommittee, and the Homeland Security Subcommittee. His committee is responsible for allocating every dollar of federal discretionary spending.
In today's increasingly unstable world, I believe it is more important than ever to stand by our allies and to protect U.S. interests at home and abroad.
That is why I stand by Israel as one of our strongest democratic allies in the Middle East. I have cosponsored legislation affirming Israel's right to self-defense against nuclear threats from Iran and other aggressors.
I have also sponsored cybersecurity legislation that would protect U.S. assets from other nations who might attempt to hack government resources or steal from U.S. businesses.
