Good leaders surround themselves with people who will tell them when they're wrong. Trump has done the opposite, surrounding himself with people who seem more interested in telling him what he wants to her than what he needs to hear.

Artificial intelligence is poised to reshape our economy in ways we can't yet predict, and we need to prepare now so that Arizonans aren't left behind. I'm grateful to Senator Kelly for his leadership on this issue. Arizona is fortunate to have him fighting for our workers.
When I flew off aircraft carriers and launched into space, we fixed problems before people got hurt. That's why I'm introducing the Make AI Work for Americans Act, which taxes the companies benefiting the most from AI and uses that money to invest in workers and give them more opportunities.

Appreciate @SenMarkKelly’s serious leadership and proactive thinking on AI’s impact on the workforce. Hardworking Americans should be the first to benefit as AI develops. These worker-centered proposals are exactly the kind of forward-looking debate Congress needs.
As AI changes our economy, workers and their families should come first, not the bottom lines of tech CEOs. My Make AI Work for Americans Act creates the AI Horizon Fund to support workers and help them succeed, paid for by Big Tech and the companies benefiting most from AI.

Glad to meet with President Zelenskyy again in New York yesterday. Ukrainians have defended their country from Russia for more than four years. We need to keep supporting them.
I began my visit to New York by a meeting with U.S. senators. I thanked them for their strong bipartisan support for Ukraine and for passing The Lindsey Graham’s sanctions bill. This is absolutely the right step, and once it is fully implemented, peace and guaranteed security will certainly be closer. We agreed that our teams will work closely on sanctions. I briefed the senators on the de-escalation proposals we will discuss with the President of the United States. We also raised our need for ballistic missile interceptors and the challenges we face ahead of the coming winter. There are things we can do together with America to protect lives. American made Patriot Systems cannot be replaced at this point, and the more anti-ballistic protection Ukraine has, the less emboldened Russia will be to continue its strikes and prolong the war. Thank you!

Trump is focused on the wrong things. Costs are skyrocketing, families are losing food assistance and health care. He's focused on ballrooms and reflecting pools and arches, not the needs of the American people. Via @SenMarkKelly

When the alarms are sounding, you don't ignore them. We have to act on AI. Now. That's why I'm introducing the Make AI Work for Americans Act to invest in American workers by taxing Big Tech.

AI needs to benefit all Americans, not just big companies and CEOs. Today on the Senate floor, I’ll be talking about how we can make sure that happens with my new AI bill I’m introducing this week.

A free press doesn’t exist to make a president look good. It exists to inform the American people and hold those in power accountable. The government doesn’t get to decide which voices are heard or silence those it doesn’t like. That’s not how America works.

U.S. servicemembers were nearly sent into harm’s way over a false intelligence report written by AI, and it could’ve escalated into a war with China. I introduced provisions in this year’s Intelligence Authorization Act to understand and prevent exactly this kind of escalation risk, so we can better build safeguards on AI. We need to get it done before another mistake like this costs lives.

In the Senate, we could soon vote on a $35 monthly cap on insulin for people on private insurance. Nearly 40% of people with diabetes have skipped or rationed insulin because they couldn’t afford it. That's not right. Let’s get this passed into law.

Got a napkin note from a 25-year-old on my flight back to Phoenix. He’s one of millions of Americans who can’t afford housing, groceries, gas, and much more as they watch the rich get richer. I'm fighting to change that.
