With no clear national security nexus, we question whether the DOE utilized emergency DPA authorities with the intent of preempting or subverting valid local health ordinances and environmental regulations.
Congress has never appropriated funds to the DOE’s DPA account with the intent of propping up a dying industry or financing a purely commercial project.
We do not believe this satisfies the statutory definition of ‘national defense’ or ‘critical infrastructure protection’ under the DPA and that there is no legally sufficient, data-driven nexus between civilian coal exports and immediate…
The DPA was intended to scale up domestic industrial capabilities to meet urgent military or national emergency needs; therefore, its invocation to construct a commercial, civilian export facility intended primarily to serve foreign…
We urge the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation to go back to the drawing board and work directly with tribes and states on a new proposal that actually improves the consultation process without undermining the rights and voices of…
We support efforts to modernize and improve the Section 106 review process, but that cannot come at the expense of meaningful tribal consultation or the expertise of the people who have protected these places for generations.
Let’s be clear: there is a difference between making the consultation process work better and cutting tribes out of the process.
This proposal disrespects the expertise that states and tribes have in protecting our national history and culture, and it erases the requirement for the federal government to meaningfully consult with tribal governments before they take…
These draft regulations by the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation are unacceptable — eliminating tribal consultation as we know it.
I take solace in knowing the success that that movement made … historic efforts of people just like you to come together to put the pressure on to explain what was really at stake: our ability to have our voice heard through casting a…
This is just as important as 1964. We have to remember this heritage. The task that they accomplished was harder than this task.
I can just tell you, as somebody who's old enough to remember the '60s and the civil rights efforts of my parents and the fight for civil liberties, I'm inspired just to be in the room with you, because it gives us confidence as we now…
Today, Titan Batteries is at the cutting edge of American manufacturing, supplying mission-specific batteries that support the U.S. military and critical defense programs.
After learning no drone battery could power a cross-country flight, Trent Clawson dove into the world of manufacturing,
I’m sorry that your schedule apparently didn’t permit us to meet before this confirmation hearing, but I hope and expect we’ll find time to meet soon after today.
Virginians deserve leaders focused on lowering costs – not policies that make life more expensive. We’ll keep fighting to reverse these harmful policies, end this unnecessary war, and put more money back in Virginians’ pockets.
This new data confirms what we’ve been hearing from families across Virginia for months. President Trump promised the American people lower costs, but instead, his reckless war of choice in Iran and his chaotic economic policies have…
Cyberattacks continue to grow in size, frequency, and complexity in critical U.S. institutions, including in America’s schools.
As cyberattacks grow more frequent and sophisticated, it’s our responsibility as lawmakers to ensure our schools have the tools and resources needed to protect students, parents, educators, and their sensitive information from being…
CFIUS has jurisdiction over foreign investment in U.S. businesses that hold sensitive personal data of Americans.
We appreciate your prompt attention to these questions and expect a timely and complete response. Our service members and their families deserve nothing less than a full and honest accounting of the costs of this war.
This lack of transparency undermines confidence that military families and the American people are receiving a complete and accurate accounting of the sacrifices made by those serving in uniform.
