Senator Paul, when you and I were both elected to the Senate back in 2010, I remember the national debt was an issue then. It was becoming large enough that people were concerned about it. As it mounted, sometimes we had conversations about how long it might continue--how long it might continue to spiral upward. Are you surprised to see that here we are, 11 year later, 11 years after you and I arrived here, and where it has gone since then?

The people of our state deserve to have those questions answered. And that’s what this investigation’s for.
It’s exactly why we will have a thorough, comprehensive review of what happened, so that we can know the answers that so many people want.
So far as we know, the Department of Correction followed exactly the protocol that was outlined and vetted and approved by the attorney general’s office.
I will seek an independent investigation and pause all executions for the rest of 2026.
