We need a process for the Federal Government to identify which infrastructure is systemically important.

I am confident that this is the best path forward.

The potential for malicious Russian cyber activity, as well as attacks by other adversarial nations like China, Iran, and North Korea, is only increasing.

We are facing an unprecedented level of cyber attacks against our Nation's critical infrastructure.

Drugs, such as fentanyl, methamphetamine, and other fentanyl-laced drugs are pouring across the Southern Border and are destroying our communities and ending the lives of thousands of Americans every year.

Our border security and immigration system cannot handle any more pull factors as the Biden administration has proven unwilling to secure our Southern Border.

I remain committed to working with Chairwoman Demings to help strengthen our Nation's overall emergency preparedness posture by supporting programs like the Nonprofit Security Grant Program.
