Senator Mark Kelly: As AI is used more by our military, we’ve got to keep people in control during life and death decisions. Service-members need to be the ones at the center, even during dynamic and complex operations. I introduced two bills today to make sure we get this right.

Representative Andy Biggs: Kudos to the health professionals at Banner Air for their innovative work to restore Arizonans who have experienced snake bites out in the desert. These efforts are making a difference.
Representative Paul Gosar: Absolutely @WhiteCoatWaste! Dogs and cats are beloved members of millions of American families. Taxpayers should not be forced to bankroll cruel and unnecessary experiments on pets. It's time to end this wasteful and inhumane spending.
Representative Eli Crane: Proud to have passed legislation out of the House providing emergency contracting authorities for recovery efforts from both fires. Rural Arizona matters. #AZ02
Representative Juan Ciscomani: Our public lands should never be subjected to rushed budget negotiations—that’s the wrong approach for #AZ06. The Public Lands Integrity Act ensures decisions impacting our public lands are made transparently, through regular order, and with FULL public input. Future generations of Arizonans deserve the opportunity to enjoy the same natural beauty that makes Arizona - and our nation - so special.

Representative Yassamin Ansari: Trump is too emotional to be president. Also, per the interview he ran away from this morning, he’s clearly still planning on his $1.8 billion slush fund for January 6 insurrectionists. Republicans need to grow a spine and stop enabling this disgusting corruption.
Representative Adelita Grijalva: While you were asleep, Senate Republicans voted to give ICE another $70 BILLION—on top of the $170 BILLION they already approved in their Big Ugly Bill. That's nearly a quarter-TRILLION (yes with a T) dollars to expand Trump's deportation machine with ZERO accountability. The House must say NO.
