Throughout my 25 years of public service, I have learned that politics alone cannot measure up to the challenges we face. A country’s character is a reflection not just of its elected officials but also of its people. May we each be a voice of unity and virtue.

I'm pleased to see our legislation, which makes it easier for well-intentioned organizations to clean up and improve water quality at abandoned mines, pass both the House and Senate! It now heads to the President's desk to be signed into law.

After a long wait, Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon is officially part of the @USCapitol collection! Utah will be well represented by this trailblazing suffragist who was the first woman ever to be elected as a state senator in the United States. Thanks to all who made this possible.

The American people expect us to work together to address our country's most pressing challenges. While in the Senate, I was fortunate to work with a bipartisan group of senators in crafting and passing major pieces of legislation that made a difference for Utah and the nation.

Looking forward, it’s incumbent upon Washington to find consensus on the issues that, while not necessarily front and center in people’s minds, would cause calamity down the road without action—like the national debt, China’s emergence as the global power, AI, and climate.

America is blessed because it is good. We’ve welcomed the poor and hungry and championed freedom for people here and around the world. It’s incumbent on all of us to maintain this tradition of goodness. If we do, America’s future will continue to be bright.

Around the world, authoritarianism is on the rise and freedom is in retreat. America's involvement in global affairs helps promote stability and support freedom, which is in our own interest. By maintaining strategic relationships and championing freedom, we put America first.

This year’s NDAA contains several measures which will support Utah's role in our national defense, including strengthening the Sentinel program at Hill Air Force Base and addressing our military recruitment crisis—a top priority of the Utah National Guard. romney.senate.gov/congress-passe…

While AI could dramatically improve our lives, it also poses enormous national security risks. Our bipartisan legislation would preserve America’s competitive edge while safeguarding our advanced technology from those looking to cause widespread harm. romney.senate.gov/romney-reed-mo…

We've turned our framework to mitigate extreme AI risks—such as nuclear and cyber threats—into bipartisan legislation. This should be the starting point for discussion on actions Washington should take on AI-enabled risks that don’t stifle U.S. innovation.romney.senate.gov/romney-reed-mo…

This is great news! Strengthening U.S. manufacturing capabilities will help break our dependence on China for microchips. Today’s announcement of funding for Texas Instruments semiconductor fab in Lehi means Utah will continue to play a vital role in bolstering national security.
