I am proud to introduce my fellow Hoosier, Patrick Urda, who has been nominated to be a judge of the United States Tax Court.

I want to thank my friend and colleague from North Dakota, who works nonstop for the people of her State. We often talk about making sure the things we do in the Senate reward hard work, that they stand up for hard work, that they are…

What oversight do you now have of this field support agency?

Do you have adequate staffing to do your job?

The Nuclear Posture Review proposes a sea launched cruise missile to replace the one dropped in the 2010 NPR.

Are you concerned about the DOE NNSA's ability to produce 80 plutonium pits per year by 2030 as mandated in the statute?
