Fusion energy is a needed climate solution. Zero emission, limitless energy could enable decarbonizing our planet to sustain humanity - but not without strong funding for fusion R&D. The stakes couldn't be higher. WATCH Rep Lofgren discuss with @SecGranholm of @ENERGY ⬇️

No one should make Americans question whether their government will be there for them when disaster strikes. My message to you: We will be with you every step of the way, no matter how long it takes.

Flying through a record-breaking hurricane to provide Americans with the most accurate forecasting data possible is an enormous display of the level of commitment of our federal scientists and meteorologists. Thank you!

The worst is over, but Kennedy is still CLOSED. The Ride Out team has decided it's safe for them to go out for an initial assessment of the center as Hurricane Milton exits the area. For more updates, continue to check our Operating Status:

To everyone impacted by Hurricane Milton: I urge you stay inside and off the roads. Downed power lines, debris, and road washouts are creating dangerous conditions. Help is on the way, but until it arrives, shelter in place until your local officials say it’s safe to go out.

“The Heritage Foundation’s FOIA of NASA employees’ internal discussions is the latest tactic wielded by MAGA Republicans to intimidate federal scientists and employees. This is a disturbing look into Trump’s Project 2025 for NASA.” – RM @RepZoeLofgren

Glad to see our bill pass out of @sciencedems ! Congress cannot afford to be behind the curve when it comes to AI and ensuring the proper guardrails are in place to mitigate risk.

Rep. Sykes’ amendment passed the Science, Space, & Technology Committee. It would ensure Manufacturing Extension Partnerships have the resources they need to provide training and services for small manufacturers to better understand and adopt A.I. in their practices.

As a member of @sciencedems , I’m very excited by the marine tech innovation happening right here in Rhode Island. Earlier this month, I got the chance to experience some of this work at @401techbridge ’s Blue TIDE event and even launch a JAIA underwater drone!

Good News! The House Science Committee just passed the companion to @SenatorCantwell and @JerryMoran ’s Small Business AI legislation, which passed this Committee earlier this summer. The legislation will help entrepreneurs across the nation leverage AI resources.
