I want to open with a few words on the announcement from China by DeepSeek. Today's announcement from China has been called AI's ``Sputnik moment'' for America. This announcement is precisely why I made AI a top priority in the last Congress and will continue to do so. Our competitors are going to use every single opportunity to overtake the United States' lead on the technologies of the future, particularly AI. And if Congress does not lead the way, we are going to fall behind. So I hope our bipartisan efforts on AI, which made some progress last year, will continue and even in a more robust way this year.
