It took a little longer than usual, but Congressman Mike Kelly of Butler was officially sworn-in for his seventh term Saturday.
The 74-year-old Kelly says that the Republican controlled House will be focusing on border security, lowering inflation, and energy independence.
Kelly also weighed in on the Speaker of the House drama. He supported Kevin McCarthy for the position in each of the 15 votes. Kelly says that McCarthy will unite the House Republican Conference and include all of the ideas to help achieve common goals.
