The president has inappropriately classified two-thirds of the federal workforce as having national security missions without any explanation whatsoever.
“Every day, we hear from Virginians with alpha-gal syndrome who struggle to feed themselves and their families safely. Reading a label should not require guesswork or a call to the manufacturer. Clear allergen labeling would give people…
“Cases of alpha-gal syndrome are rapidly increasing in Virginia and across the country, and nearly everyone I meet has or knows someone whose life has been affected by this disease. We must do more to understand, prevent, and treat AGS and…
The Salt Typhoon intrusion was the worst telecom hack in our nation’s history and showed us just how vulnerable our critical infrastructure is, but it does not have to be that way. If telecommunications companies adopt cybersecurity best…
Our current health care system makes it hard and expensive for Virginians and Americans across the country to access the care they rely on.
The companies building the most powerful AI systems in the world are sounding the alarm: the step-change increase in AI models’ capacity for cyber-offense, combined with clear failures to securely host and deploy these capabilities, could…
We need critical minerals to build chips for everything from our smartphones to our national defense apparatus.
Until then, we’ll keep the pressure on and continue to fight for a return to service standards that not only meet but exceed expectations.
We’ll be watching the USPS’s team closely to see if and how these recommendations are implemented, and whether they actually make meaningful improvements in delivery time.
I’m grateful to Inspector General Tammy Hull and her team for their thorough review process in South Dakota and their thoughtful recommendations for improvements.
We’ve heard from thousands of South Dakotans who have real concerns about their mail service.
It’s encouraging and unsurprising that the Inspector General’s report studying the mail service in South Dakota shows evidence to back up what we’ve been hearing and seeing for years: the United States Postal Service is not adequately…
Seeing this pass the Senate during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is something really special. It sends a message to every West Virginia family touched by childhood cancer that we see you, we stand with you, and we will always remember…
I know first-hand the importance of every child being able to learn at school and fully participate in our communities, which is why I will continue to urge my colleagues to pass my bipartisan RISE Act and ease the transition from high…
It was great to be at Southern New Hampshire University to hear from students about their experiences on campus, and the work of staff at colleges and universities across the Granite State to make sure that all students, regardless of any…
“I’m going to make sure that in no way do I enable Donald Trump to ever be president of the United States again.”
“Once you go through the thought process of convincing yourself that you can be president, and then the next step that you should be president, that doesn’t leave your brain.”
“For our party’s sake, if we do a lot of losing six weeks from today, I wonder whether we’re going to say, OK, we need to change this approach and change this kind of wing of the party from being the dominant wing and having a different…
“Am I looking at it? Look, anybody who comes up here — anybody who comes up here — and has ever run for president and not won and told you they’re not looking at it again is lying,”
These violations substantiated in the investigation reflect a pattern of behavior that does not meet the standards of this Administration.
The investigation found that the Lieutenant Governor engaged in serious, repeated violations of state policy and failed to uphold the responsibilities of his office.
