“President Donald Trump’s announcement of a $500 billion investment in AI infrastructure is a game-changer for America’s future. Building out state-of-the-art data centers and ensuring we lead the global AI race will drive innovation, create jobs, and keep us competitive against nations like China. We chair the Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, IT, and Government Innovation so we understand the importance this investment can make. This is exactly the kind of bold investment we need to secure America’s place as the leader in AI development."

"Vivek Ramaswamy is spot on—our legacy IT systems are outdated and in desperate need of updating. We’re dealing with tech from the 1960s which costs more to maintain, leaves us open to cyber threats, and slows everything down. Our office introduced and passed the Modernizing Government Technology Reform Act for this exact reason. If we want to stop waste, cut fraud, and make government programs actually work for the people, we need to modernize.”

"These attacks will not stop here. They will impact every sector of our economy. Our federal cybersecurity systems have been woefully outdated and we are falling behind– fast. We must prioritize robust protections for our communication networks to ensure foreign adversaries cannot compromise sensitive information or jeopardize our national security." 

"The CCP has waged a sustained campaign of infiltration, influence, and economic warfare against the United States. Agencies like the Department of Education and Treasury continue to overlook this influence, allowing the CCP’s foothold to grow. As Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation, we've worked to expose pressing threats like Volt Typhoon and other covert infiltration tactics, aimed at weakening the U.S. from within.

"For over a year, Iranian actors have targeted healthcare systems, government agencies, and energy sectors. This is cyber warfare, plain and simple. Iran’s government is fueling this digital assault. Our office introduced and passed H.R.5527 to modernize outdated government tech and defend our infrastructure against cyberattacks. We need this bill now more than ever.” 
 

"The federal government has blown $409 billion on immigration enforcement, yet one-third of the cameras at our southern border don’t even work. This is outrageous. We need to get serious about oversight, cut the waste across our alphabet agencies, and ensure we’re investing in tech designed to keep Americans safe."
