The Ukrainian Bandurist Chorus visited my office to perform “Carol of the Bells.” This song, like Ukraine, is an expression of strength through a history of famine & war. As families gather to celebrate the holidays, let‘s support those in Ukraine fighting for freedom & withstanding Russian attacks.

The FAA's understaffing of air traffic controllers at Austin's airport is unacceptable and leading to unnecessary delays.
I continue pressing the FAA Administrator for more meaningful action and won't stop until our control tower has the support it needs.
The government is funded only through mid-March when we will likely experience another threatened government shutdown.
Happy holidays but a challenging New Year ahead.
Great that Musk and Trump failed in their attempt to force Congress to take action now to facilitate their planned tax bill, which would provide more benefits to America’s billionaires. With 34 Republicans voting against the resolution, a shutdown was avoided because of a unanimous Democratic vote.
Good news that Congress approved legislation to maintain government funding instead of permitting another damaging shutdown as happened three times during the last Trump Administration.
During some of the three prior Trump shutdowns, some unpaid controllers called in sick.
Expect even longer airport delays in Austin and elsewhere if Republicans fail again to keep our government functioning.
With a shortage of air traffic controllers already inconveniencing many & reducing our margin of safety at Austin's airport, the looming Trump/GOP government shutdown will make matters worse during the holidays.
Controllers, already overworked and understaffed, would be forced to work with no pay.
Now, through this significant federal investment, Samsung is expanding in both Austin and Taylor. For both our local economic prosperity and our national security, the Chips & Science Act is a win for America.
Congratulations to all those who have made Samsung such a success. (2/2)
Having joined the Chamber of Commerce's successful effort long ago to encourage Samsung to bring its first American fab to Austin, I have appreciated Samsung as a creator of great products and great jobs. (1/2)
Minutes before we were about to vote on a bipartisan, bicameral agreement to keep the government open, Elon Musk and his sidekick Donald Trump intervened to spew misinformation and make new demands.
After 3 shutdowns during Trump’s last term, we certainly don’t need another. (2/2)
Spoke with Jim Acosta on CNN about the effects of a looming Republican government shutdown and Trump's plan to add trillions to our debt with more tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. (1/2)
Thousands of Americans await disaster assistance, but Trump and his accomplices could only provide another disaster.
Trump wants a government shutdown.
His errand boy, Speaker Johnson, backed out of bipartisan legislation, which he had personally approved after months of negotiation.
Tonight, 38 Republicans voted against his bill.
What Republicans are beginning with Liz Cheney is an infection that can spread widely and rapidly to undermine our democracy. (3/3(
While I have multiple political disagreements with Liz, I admire her courage and her commitment to our Constitution. Trump insists that Liz, Chairman Bennie Thompson, and all members of the official House January 6th Committee “should go to jail.” (2/3)
Trump promised revenge on his opponents. Now House Republicans are joining as accomplices by issuing an outrageous report urging a criminal probe of Liz Cheney. There is no evidence that she committed any criminal offense, only that in doing her job responsibly, she offended Donald Trump. (1/3)
The Trump chaos begins.
With his last-minute demands, Trump has issued a directive to Republicans to reject the bipartisan agreement approved by House and Senate leaders, resulting in a government shutdown on Friday that will deny paychecks to millions, including our servicemembers.
Austin's air control tower needs more resources and support to safely manage our skies. Yet the FAA continues to fail to take meaningful action.
Until the FAA prioritizes expanding our controlled airspace and hiring more controllers, travelers are exposed to inadequate safety.
Congratulations to Texas native and @utaustin.bsky.social alumni Robert Rodriguez on the induction of his movie SPY KIDS into The Library of Congress National Film Registry!
Filmed in Austin, it now joins hundreds of other titles preserved in our national library for cultural significance.
Austin travelers are frequently experiencing flight delays because air traffic controllers are understaffed.
After the FAA told me our situation was "as bad as it gets," they fail to take meaningful action to staff up our control tower. I'll keep fighting for our safety.
