The USDA must do more to address underlying issues at the Department of Agriculture and better support our small-scale farmers.

I am glad to have joined Senator Tina Smith in requesting no less than $60 billion in funding for rural broadband, community infrastructure, business development.

I have heard from farmers who are saddled with debt, or who have historically struggled to access assistance.

People are disconnected and the implications for their health care, for education, for the marketplace, distance learning, is difficult to overstate.

This is about some people not wanting some people to vote.

I look forward to working with my colleagues on this committee and here in the Senate to make sure that we have the kind of cybersecurity resilience necessary for this moment.

Following the ransomware attack on Colonial, over 40 percent of the gas stations in Georgia were out of gas.

This attack caused a lot of turmoil to put it lightly in Georgia and across the country.

Ransomware attack on the Colonial Pipeline had very real consequences for working families across Georgia.

Folks couldn't go to work, small businesses suffered, families in Georgia who were already barely getting by had to deal with another crisis.

We must meet this moment. As President Biden said in Philadelphia last week, this is the 'test of our time.'

Your vote is your voice, and your voice is about your human dignity.

Some people do not want some people to vote.

This is a sacred moment. This is an inflection point in our country. We are in a 911 emergency for our democracy.

To fight for voting rights is to fight for human rights.

This new law also reduces the time for runoff elections from 9 weeks to 28 days.

This new law in Georgia, S.B. 202, would make voting harder for countless Georgians.

Congress must act. Congress has a unique responsibility to protect voting rights for every eligible American.

Sadly, what we`re seeing in Georgia is an attempt to deny certain people the ability to have their voices heard in our democracy. As I have said time and time again, some people don`t want some people to vote. Congress must take action on…

Some people don’t want some people to vote. That’s what this is about.

These issues and a focus on them will certainly benefit rural and coastal communities all across the State of Georgia.

I could feel the urgency in the voices of the farmers as I talked to them about this throughout Georgia.

The easy fix to this is to spend on STEM education by subsidizing student tuition.

Supply chain threats are not only a result of specific national security components built overseas, but also a result of the failure or inability for domestic industries here at home to grow.

I am planning to introduce this legislation, along with Senator Klobuchar and Chairman Brown here in the Senate.
