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…
Every day, we’re seeing new reports of AI models going rogue and hacking systems without our knowledge or oversight. The risks of AI are not theoretical – they are happening in real-time.
Thanks to President Trump we are the energy superpower of the world, but our refining capacity is our Achilles’ heel.
The work to ensure energy security through increased refining capacity is a marathon, not a sprint.
The South Carolina Air National Guard’s 169th Fighter Wing is a national model for excellence and readiness. After a decade of strategic preparation, the 169th Fighter Wing has the infrastructure and personnel to welcome F-35s. Add in a…
“For years, I’ve been championing a federal film tax credit to stop the exodus of tv and film production leaving the United States for countries offering higher incentives. Now, we have the best opportunity in decades to get it done. The…
“Having worked in a movie theater growing up, I saw early on how films can move and inspire generations of Americans. Films like ‘The Notebook’ bring us to tears, and films like ‘Forrest Gump’ inspire us to see the world differently. That…
With the People’s Republic of China controlling global critical minerals supply chains, the United States needs a durable strategy to secure reliable access to the resources that power our modern economy.
We need critical minerals to build chips for everything from our smartphones to our national defense apparatus.
Georgia’s transformative contributions to national defense and technological advancement call for streamlined access to global critical mineral markets.
Critical minerals are the building blocks for advanced technology. From powering our cellphones to our nation’s most advanced weapons systems, they are essential to America’s national security.
We are blessed to live in the greatest nation on God’s green Earth, and my bill makes it clear that our temporary travel programs cannot be exploited for the purpose of obtaining American citizenship.
The birth tourism industry has disrespected what it means to be an American by selling and profiting from the freedoms and values that men and women across our country died for.
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.

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…
We cannot assume that future autonomous or AI-enabled attacks will not target hospitals, electric grids, water systems, or other critical infrastructure.
We must also continue to improve our understanding of these increasingly complex systems, whose internal processes can be difficult even for experts to fully interpret, predict, and control.
Recent developments involving frontier AI models have further demonstrated the ability of advanced systems to circumvent safeguards, interact with external systems, and substantially enhance offensive cyber capabilities.
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…
Redesignating this playground is a great way to honor our youngest and bravest West Virginians fighting cancer," Senator Capito said.
