In this episode of \u201dAmerican Potential,\u201d host Jeff Crank welcomes Representative Kat Cammack, who shares her deeply personal story of how government policies directly impacted her family, leading to the loss of their ranch due to an Obama-era program. Kat\u2019s narrative begins with her early life in Colorado, her experiences growing up in a working-class family, and how these shaped her understanding of government\u2019s role in citizens\u2019 lives. She recounts the pivotal moments that drove her into politics, driven by a desire to prevent others from experiencing similar governmental overreach.\n\nTransitioning from personal loss to political action, Kat discusses her legislative efforts aimed at curbing government overreach and restoring power to the people. Highlighting her work on the REINS Act, she emphasizes the importance of Congressional oversight on regulations that have a significant economic impact, advocating for a system where such regulations require an up or down vote by Congress. This approach, she argues, is crucial for ensuring accountability and transparency in government actions, giving citizens a more direct voice in the regulatory process.\n\nThe conversation also delves into broader issues of government spending, regulatory overreach, and the need for a more informed and engaged citizenry. Kat\u2019s journey from experiencing the adverse effects of unchecked government policies to fighting for reform in Congress illustrates the power of personal stories in shaping public policy. Her story is a testament to the resilience of the American spirit and the importance of standing up for principles of freedom and limited government.\n\nCheck out American Potential here: https://americanpotential.com\n\nCheck out our Spanish episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8wSZydeKZ6uOuFlT_1QQ53L7l6AmC83c\n\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmericanPotentialPodcast \n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/americanpotentialpodcast/\n\nX: https://twitter.com/AMPotentialPod
