We’re working to advance this funding so we have the munitions and operational capabilities required to counter our adversaries and keep the maximum amount of pressure on rogue regimes like Iran.
The story of America has always been one of people who believed our country could better live up to its founding promise—and rolled up their sleeves to make it happen. That's the work ahead of us, and it's work I'll never stop fighting for.
By making these programs more accessible to smaller operations, we can help producers adopt soil health practices, strengthen local food systems, and protect our environment.
Farmers and ranchers deserve access to federal conservation programs that work for them, especially as the climate crisis worsens. This legislation will help ensure that small farms have the support they need to strengthen their operations…
Small farms are the backbone of our rural communities, but they often struggle to compete with big farms in accessing important USDA conservation funding. We need to do all that we can to ensure that small farms have the resources they…
After years of local work this investment will help replace three aging bridges to keep communities safe and ensure the efficient transportation of goods and services across state lines.
The Red River divides North Dakota and Minnesota, and the bridges joining them are essential to these rural sister communities.
The 91st Missile Wing is at the heart of America’s nuclear deterrent, standing watch every day to keep our nation safe.
These awards were hard-earned and well-deserved.

Neither of these situations are inevitable, but we must act now to rebuild America’s rusted Maritime Industrial Base and end our reliance on Chinese-flagged vessels.
This is not merely a hypothetical question, but a possibility America’s leaders must prepare for.

From modernizing critical bridges and freight facilities to improving major transportation corridors, these projects will benefit Hoosiers for decades to come while keeping Indiana’s transportation network strong and our economy growing.

It really is the lifeblood. I'll point out West Virginia was just in the college world series and got all the way to the top four.
Ten years ago, West Virginia faced one of the darkest days in our state’s history. The devastation left behind by the 2016 flood was unimaginable, and we will never forget the 23 precious lives that were lost.
As we mark ten years since the devastating 2016 flood, we remember the 23 West Virginians we lost, and the devastation that occurred across our state. My heart still aches for the incredible losses we experienced that day, and the families…
Special education and vocational rehabilitation are education programs. Any attempt to move these programs to HHS would fundamentally alter the purposes of these services, upending fifty years of work that took place at the federal, state…
