AV companies owe consumers the truth about how safe their autonomous vehicles are on the road. I introduced the AV Safety Data Act to ensure that AV companies report data the public needs to hold them accountable and keep all travelers safe.
Last June, Trump said Iran’s nuclear program was “completely and totally obliterated.” It wasn’t true, and now he is planning a new attack. Trump’s lies just never stop, and the dangers just keep growing.
