Thanking Our Law Enforcement Officers I joined 75 of my Senate colleagues in introducing a resolution to designate this week as National Police Week. I’ll never waver in my commitment to support law enforcement and their efforts to build safe communities. I am more grateful than ever for the sacrifices of our officers and their families! Read more about our resolution here! Expanding Access to High Quality Health Care I teamed up with Senator Tom Carper and introduced the Hospital Inpatient Services Modernization Act of 2024. This legislation extends the Centers for Medicare & Medicare Services Acute Hospital Care at Home waiver program for five years. Our efforts to extend this program will ease pressure on our health care system and allow thousands of vulnerable Americans to continue receiving high-quality care from the safety of their homes.

Holding the FDIC Chair Accountable During the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs hearing this week, I called for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Chairman Marin Gruenberg to resign following reports of sexual harassment and instigating a hostile work environment. There’s no greater responsibility that we have as public servants to ensure that we represent the interests of the American people, that we do it well, and that we do it with character and integrity. I also requested an additional hearing focused on the FDIC employees' concerns with Chairman Gruenberg's leadership. Watch my opening remarks here! |
