If you have data, if you have information that can help us as we go down this path and figure out an answer, a solution to more affordable housing, not just in Nevada but across the country, I would be open to working with you.

The future of Amtrak depends on our commitment to invest in its infrastructure.

Investing in education is investing in our future.

Let me associate myself with Senator Heitkamp's comments, because I agree. This is too important.

I'm deeply concerned with any effort to dramatically expand the movement of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste on our Nation's rail and highway network.

This proposal relies on unjustified cost analysis and data, flawed safety assumptions, and blatant disregard for energy conservation and climate change.

I very much look forward to reviewing those findings and, if confirmed, I look forward to working with you and the Committee on aviation safety issues.

The recent leap to joint draft proposal for light-duty vehicle standards for fuel economy and greenhouse gas emissions shows that NHTSA, alongside the EPA, intends to significantly weaken the existing standards through model year 2026.

I am proud to stand with my good colleague from New Hampshire and all of my colleagues today in defense of net neutrality. Net neutrality has leveled the playing field for every American consumer, allowing everyone to access and enjoy an…

Tara has the experience and the commitment to serve Indian Country.

I appreciate that. The next question I have for you is, can you describe what you consider appropriate tribal consultation in this area?
