- Senate, September 22, 2026, 1,071 wordsArtificial Intelligence (Executive Session)
I happen to be the last person to sit in the commander's seat of Space Shuttle Endeavour. It is hard to describe how it feels to be strapped to 4\1/2\ million pounds of fuel, waiting for three main engines and two solid rocket boosters to ignite underneath you.

Later today, we are going to take a vote on the delivery of bulldozers and 1,000-pound bombs to Israel. First, let me say that I cannot and will not abandon Israel. Israel is one of our closest partners. They have a right to defend themselves, and I will always support Israel's right to exist as a successful and prosperous nation.

16 years after the Supreme Court's disastrous Citizens United decision, families across Arizona are paying more for groceries, rent, gas, and healthcare. And they are wondering why the people they elect to represent them always seem to have time for the priorities of billionaires and big corporations but not enough time for them.

Exactly 5 years ago today, I, as well, was in this Chamber, listening to my colleagues debate something that never should have been in question--the validity of the electoral votes from my State of Arizona. We had just returned from the House Chamber, where we were supposed to be carrying out one of the most basic responsibilities of our democracy, and that is certifying the results of a free and fair election.

For more than a month, I have been here in DC fighting to keep healthcare costs from spiking for my constituents, and for more than a month, I have been hearing from people I represent about what their healthcare costs now and what it will cost if these tax credits are allowed to expire--people like Leslie from Buckeye, who is a diabetic and whose premium is about to go from $600 a month to $1,000 per month; and people like Jessica from Yuma.

In just a few weeks, millions of Americans will start the process of picking new health insurance plans, and I believe a number of them are going to see the cost of their health insurance double. This is, unfortunately, not a mistake. It is the price of Washington failing them. And it is not just a number on a bill. It is the first sign for these families that their lives are going to be much harder.
