A great day in North Platte!
From a new airport terminal—made possible by federal funding I worked to secure—to a future landmark to honor the North Platte Canteen, it's exciting to see what's possible when we invest in Nebraska.

Good news: My Secure Space Act passed the Senate. The threat foreign adversaries like China and Russia pose to our satellite infrastructure cannot be overstated. I’m thankful my colleagues understand the importance of this legislation and the national security risks we face.

This is just another example of Putin’s careless disregard for Europe’s borders.
He wants to see how far he can go before being pushed back.
As Russia continues to test NATO's resolve, I commend Poland for its swift and professional response.

Our veterans deserve the best available care, and that starts with hiring and retaining skilled providers. The bipartisan VA Salary Cap Waiver Adjustment Act gives the VA more flexibility to compete against private sector salaries. Read more: alliancetimes.com/fischer-in…

As chair of @SASCGOP Strategic Forces Subcommittee, I work closely with Gen. Guetlein and appreciate his tireless commitment and transparency in making the case for Golden Dome. It was a pleasure sharing the stage with him and Gen. Guillot at @AFA_Air_Space’s #AFANational to discuss why we need better homeland defense.
