I was proud welcome Ukrainian Prime Minister, Denys Shmyhal, to the U.S. Capitol today. Helping our friends resist Russian aggression is in America’s direct interests. It’s time to deliver the national security supplemental.

America is facing the most dangerous combination of national security challenges since the end of the Cold War. Now is exactly the wrong time to let vital FISA authorities go dark. The Senate must act this week.

The easiest way to embolden America’s adversaries is to show them we’re unwilling or unable to meet aggression with strength. It’s time for President Biden to stand by our allies and stand up to our adversaries. And it's time for Congress to deliver urgent national defense investments.

In the face of Iran’s strikes on Israel, the United States must stand with our ally as it defends its people and its sovereignty. President Biden says America’s commitment to Israel is “ironclad”. It’s time to match words with action.

I was proud to welcome Prime Minister Kishida to the U.S. Capitol this morning. Japan is an essential ally, critical to the security of the Indo-Pacific and clear-eyed about the global nature of the threats we face.

Today, I was honored to welcome UK Foreign Secretary Lord David Cameron to the U.S. Capitol. Working together, our two nations must continue to lead by example and invest in deterring serious challenges around the world.

America cannot afford to lose moral clarity about Israel’s right to self-defense. Our ally continues the difficult work of eliminating the terrorists responsible for October 7th. And Congress has an opportunity to show America’s friends that they can count on our support by

It’s long past time for the Biden Administration to withdraw the nomination of Adeel Mangi. Law enforcement officers across the country have been sounding the alarm on Mr. Mangi’s radical affiliations. I’m glad that members of nation’s largest police union have decided to back

Today, I was proud to join Congressional leaders in honoring veterans of the Ghost Army with the Congressional Gold Medal. WW2 demanded the best America had to offer, and our nation will never forget how these talented men deceived the enemy to save American lives.

Israel’s government and unity war cabinet report to the Israeli people, not the U.S. Senate. America rightly rejects foreign interference in our own democratic politics. And we owe it to our friends and allies to stay out of theirs.

.President Biden’ climate agenda puts activists ahead of American workers: Freezing new export permits, micromanaging home appliances, and now trying to rig the auto market for expensive EVs. Democrats are willing to trade working families’ livelihoods for kudos from their radical base.

The remainder of government funding for FY 2024 is on a path to becoming law. As bill text is finalized, I’m grateful to Senator Collins for pushing tirelessly for Republican priorities, including urgent resources for national defense. It's time for Congress to complete our work.

The primary “obstacles to peace” in Israel’s region are genocidal terrorists and corrupt PA leaders who repeatedly reject peace deals. Foreign observers who cannot keep this straight ought to refrain from interfering in the democracy of a sovereign ally.
