This one-size-fits-all rule for solar development will drastically affect public lands in Idaho and across the West. ..BLM’s solar rule will interfere with established multiple uses and in some cases cut these uses out completely. BLM must reverse course.

I look forward to honoring these outstanding athletes on American Girls in Sports Day this October.

We must protect women in sports and celebrate the significant contributions girls have made to athletics.

The people of Idaho do not like the Lava Ridge project. I don’t like it either. In fact, Secretary Haaland can’t name anyone who does. Still, she won’t commit to abandoning the project.

Actions speak louder than words. Condemnation is not enough.

The Department of Education must hold universities accountable for their failure to control these unlawful protests and ensure Jewish students feel safe on campus.

It’s the same story in Idaho. The lower Snake River dams provide reliable and affordable power across the Gem State.  It’s a vital part of the state’s economy.

The lower Snake River dams aren’t going anywhere. Steve Daines and I will make sure of it.

The U.S. Department of Education remains silent on the disgraceful, hateful acts of antisemitism on college campuses, and now, they’re handing out more student loan “forgiveness.”
This is an utter failure by the Department of Education. Get your act together. Stop the protests. Stop trying to…

America’s dangerous reliance on Russian enriched uranium must come to an end—our national security depends on it.

With the passage of our legislation, America is taking an important step to spur uranium conversion and enrichment in the U.S., support advanced nuclear development…

Universities across America have failed to take action against violent and complicit antisemitism. These acts of hate have far surpassed free-speech, let alone peaceful demonstrations. This admin cannot allow this to continue or escalate any further.

There’s no question. Idaho opposes the Lava Ridge Wind energy project. Bureau of Land Management - National must listen to our unified voices and stop this project.

Nearly 2,000 known “gotaways” in a single weekend. That’s the direct result of the Biden admin’s lack of enforcement at the southern border.

Failure to apprehend these illegal immigrants violates our immigration laws and threatens the safety of our communities.

Idaho is a leading example of the important role of active forest management for conservation and forest health. As a trained forester, I’m proud to partner with Senator Angus King to celebrate Arbor Day!

Deadly fentanyl overdoses have impacted far too many Idaho communities. Now that the FEND Off Fentanyl Act has been signed into law, we can cut off the flow of fentanyl into the US by seizing the financial assets of Chinese suppliers & Mexican cartels. With Tim Scott, I’m…

Antisemitism has no place in America, including on college campuses.

These aren’t protests.

It isn’t peaceful.

It is a direct attack on the Jewish community.

The Department of Education must take immediate action to punish schools that fail to protect their students from…

No student should fear their safety on a college campus. The continued acts of violence and antisemitism across the country are despicable and we must hold these higher education institutions accountable for their failure to protect Jewish students.

I do not support ranked choice voting. This sounds like a solution looking for a problem that doesn’t exist. The system we’ve got works. I’ve learned in life when you’ve got something like that, don’t mess with it.

Nuclear energy will power our future. I'm proud to support Idaho National Lab with the Advanced Nuclear Caucus and on the Energy Committee to showcase the Gem State's continued work on nuclear innovation and cybersecurity.
