This will prevent a government-wide shutdown, continue critical services and operations for Americans, and hold federal workers harmless while Congress completes appropriations.

So Wyoming didn’t just send me here to spew political jargon, play politics. Because these things are simple, they are timeless. They are understood values.
Would we expect to go to Mexico or Canada and walk into an election booth and have them let us vote in their elections?
That’s what the Clarity Act is about: protecting everyday Americans and their hard-earned money, giving entrepreneurs a fair shot to build and create jobs here at home, and strengthening our national security by making it harder for…
It delivers the certainty consumers, businesses and markets have been calling for by creating strong safeguards while supporting responsible innovation.
If the prediction markets are allowed to keep operating unchecked does this pose an existential threat to both tribal sovereignty and to Indian Country, and what can Congress do to better protect Indian gaming?
So, my state wants to know why the Indian gaming [operations] – who basically have lived by the rules in their state and lived by the rules of a regulated entity – are now all of a sudden competing with somebody that is not a regulated…
You don’t have to answer this question, but I just want to throw it out there. Our H-1B program sucks.
So, we want to be able to destroy this food and not allow it into our country.
Basically, what this does is when bad food comes into our ports, and it’s turned around by food inspectors, it goes right back out into the waters and goes to another port, and hopefully they get [away] with murder, so to speak.
You know, it’s a common sense, targeted approach [that] modernizes our food safety system.
First, I’d like to thank Senator Kaine on this. This is really important, especially [for] those that have ports.
They would undermine our country’s competitiveness, erode our scientific ecosystem, increase unwanted bureaucracy, enable corruption, and perpetuate uncertainty across our local communities.
I am proud to be a strong supporter of these bills and urge my colleagues to vote for these when they come before for the full House and Senate.
The National Plan for Epilepsy Act will expand resources and improve epilepsy care across the country.
The INSULIN Act would cap the cost of insulin, so Americans can pay less for the medication they need.
Tyler’s Law would institute more robust guidance on testing for fentanyl during a suspected overdose.
My Medicare Advantage bills will help streamline the prior authorization process and ensure transparency on supplemental benefits, so that seniors get the care they need when they need it.
I am glad my colleagues voted to move forward these life-saving pieces of legislation.
This is an important tool that has been utilized by producers to cover more than 67 million acres across the nation, including 10 million in North Dakota.
We worked closely with Secretary Rollins and Under Secretary Fordyce on this issue, and very much appreciate their efforts to restore this option for our producers.
Chaco Canyon is more than a place on a map — it is thousands of years of culture, history, and the enduring spirit of the Pueblo peoples. Protecting Chaco is our sacred responsibility. Once Chaco is damaged, it cannot be undone. That’s why…
Chaco Canyon is not for sale. New Mexico has an important role to play producing energy for the nation. We're the second largest producer of oil in the country, we produce far more electrons than we consume, and we have never had to…
