Susan Collins: “Very few of those 400,000 would have valid current visas.”

I took particular issue with the provision that would allow political appointees to review grant proposals, noting that it would undermine the goal of awarding funds 'based on scientific merit and value, rather than political ideology.'

Relocating Portland’s station to the mainline is a commonsense investment that will mean shorter trips, fewer delays, and better connections for passengers traveling throughout Maine and New England.

I was pleased that the bill prevents the OMB from implementing its proposed rule, which would politicize grants and harm small, rural communities, families, and biomedical research.

This CR is straightforward.
