I urge you to promptly direct Diplomatic Security to conduct a tiered assessment of Somalia and establish a separate, region-specific Travel Advisory for Somaliland.
Americans deserve travel guidance that reflects the conditions on the ground.
The current advisory is inaccurate and counterproductive to U.S. national security interests.
Somaliland has functioned as a stable, self-governing, democratic nation for nearly three decades.
America has the strongest military in the world and a mission to deliver peace through strength.
The Pentagon has been plagued by a massive amount of waste, fraud and financial mismanagement for decades.
The risks of waste, fraud, and abuse, along with threats to readiness and servicemembers’ lives, are obvious.
There appear to be no transparency provisions to determine who is taking part in the initiative, and no protections to prevent them from acting in their own financial interest rather than the public interest.
[T]he QSBS exclusion is riddled with loopholes that are regularly exploited by the very wealthy…Given [the] flurry of recent QSBS-related policymaking, it is more important than ever for Congress and the American people to have updated…
Donald Trump is right about this: Eliminate the debt limit—its only real function is to threaten an economic crisis. I’m ready to work with both Democratic and Republican Senators to immediately scrap the debt ceiling and protect the…
Several Trump-tied companies failed to respond to our basic questions about this corrupt agreement, raising real concerns that they plan to use it as a get-out-of-jail-free card.
This is shameful and a complete and utter disrespect to these service members, their loved ones, and those who served alongside them…It dishonors their ultimate sacrifice to attempt to hide the real costs of this war from the American…
As President Trump once again ramps up his reckless war in Iran, and new reports indicate that additional American bases have come under attack, it is critical that DoD provide answers about its capacity to provide care for injured service…
It’s a no-brainer that students and families should have access to critical information like college costs and employment outcomes when they make one of the most important financial decisions of their lives. Today’s bipartisan committee…
Under Donald Trump, the IRS keeps working better and better for Donald Trump and his billionaire buddies—and worse and worse for everyone else.
I cannot support a bill that rubber stamps Donald Trump’s corruption.
It is corruption, plain and simple, and my amendment would reverse that shameful decision and make Direct File the law of the land.
The American people deserve to have a government that works for them—not one that is willing to push energy prices even higher and put the country’s energy security at grave risk.
At a time when energy prices are skyrocketing, the administration is hell-bent on political retribution instead of working to bring down costs for millions of Americans.
Once an administration begins punishing Americans for how they vote, the threat extends far beyond these projects: no state, community, business, or worker can trust that the federal government will apply the law fairly.
It is an attack on the rule of law and the basic democratic principle that the federal government serves the entire country—not merely those who support the President.
Committee passage is a positive step toward delivering a tax system that better serves taxpayers with fairness, transparency, and accountability.
The Taxpayer Assistance and Service Act – a commonsense legislative package and product of bipartisan work – will strengthen taxpayer rights, reduce unnecessary burdens, and make our tax system fairer.
