Happy 388th Birthday to the US National Guard! Thank you for your unwavering service and dedication to protecting our communities and keeping America safe. #AlwaysReadyAlwaysThere
Great NY News: JMA Wireless just won a $44M grant from my bipartisan CHIPS & Science Law to help expand its Syracuse plant for 5G wireless equipment and create good-paying jobs. We need the future of America’s 5G technology built in CNY, not China! www.syracuse.com/business/202...
This would ensure Americans are not erroneously denied their well-earned social security benefits simply because they chose careers in public service.

The only way we prevent a shutdown is through bipartisan cooperation, without any last-minute poison pills that only create controversy. Adding poison pills at the 11th hour would only make the risk of a Christmas shutdown greater. That would hurt Americans across this country.
I just took the next steps to move forward on the national defense bill in the Senate. We’re going to keep working to finish the job and pass the 63rd annual NDAA.
The Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) overwhelmingly passed the House and we're working to pass it in the Senate. Reauthorizing WRDA opens the floodgates to authorize all sorts of water-related projects vital for improving and protecting infrastructure in New York and beyond.
Thank you, Damar Hamlin. Thank you to the Buffalo Bills. Thank you to the NFL. Thank you to all the student athletes and great champions in Buffalo and everywhere who pushed for this bill. I am proud to have worked with you all to pass the 🫶 HEARTS Act. 🫶
After he suffered from cardiac arrest during a game—Damar Hamlin didn’t just sit around. He came and told me he wanted to make history and ensure more kids in schools have access to the same AEDs that saved his life. I’m proud to have worked with him to pass the 🫶 HEARTS Act 🫶
In America, there’s a basic promise that if you work hard all your life, play by the rules and contribute year after year, then you deserve a secure retirement! That’s why I am doing everything I can to pass the Social Security Fairness Act. And the Senate GOP needs to join us.
