We recently created an Energy Bill of Rights in the State of Nevada that actually protects home energy generation and storage.

I want to share with my colleagues and the American people what I witnessed on a visit to a couple of immigration detention facilities on our southern border and the stories of the people, children, and infants being held there. On a visit…

I agree with my colleague Senator Scott and the concern about too many adults have credit invisible and unscorable credit, and I think that is harmful in so many different ways.

Nevada is a big proponent of battery technology, and as you well know, we have a large battery factory, Tesla, the Gigafactory there in Nevada.

That is wonderful to hear. Thank you.

I agree with my colleagues--this concern that all of this data is being collected on all of us individually, and we have no control over it.

Due to the high public interest, I am told that the Forest Service extended the comment period through April 23, 2018.

I understand there has been an overwhelming majority of people who have submitted comments that are opposed to the drilling.

I am supportive of the legislation and look forward to seeing what comes from the fruit of you getting together.

Change policy to expand the overall pool of accredited investors, but also reduce the proportion, qualifying solely by virtue of income and wealth alone.

I was pleased to lead this bill with Senator Tillis, and I also want to thank Senators Heitkamp, Peters, Toomey, and Heller, who cosponsored it.

I can tell you right now I have concerns for the conversation that we had with H.R. 4015, but do support the Cybersecurity Disclosure Act of 2017 and Expanding Access to Capital for Rural Job Creators Act.

Hydropower accounts for about 40 percent of the renewable energy that is produced in Nevada.

I don't see this proposal as eliminating the support for renewable energy and energy efficiency.

It is so great to see and hear a federal agency that is actually focused on workforce and how to develop it.

One of the real challenges that we face in the Department of Energy is you have, say, the Office of Science working on a bioenergy issue.

We do encourage that every state have some sort of audit and that a lot of thought be put into risk-limiting audits.

But what I have seen I do not think is a good idea.

I was talking with the Secretary of State's office in the State of Nevada, and one of the things they brought to my attention, as we talked a little bit about the risk-limiting audits.

There is a lot of discussion about risk-limiting audits and whether or not they should be used more broadly across the country.

Right now, there is not a quorum on the EAC and because there is no quorum, you are unable to pass the Guidelines 2.0.

If states have audits on the books, but they are not conducting them, then that is where the real problem lies.

This idea that somehow there was widespread voter fraud occurring across this country that needs our immediate attention, which engages in voter suppression, is false.

Should we be looking at that? Is it cumbersome? Is it slow? Is it too expensive?

The new HAVA funds are not enough for all the states to purchase all of the newer voting systems.
