John Barrasso said ( about National Defense Authorization Act ) : “The Nord Stream 2 pipeline is a Russian trap that the Biden administration is willingly walking into,” “Congress has passed bipartisan sanctions to stop this dangerous pipeline multiple times. We know Russia uses energy as a geopolitical weapon to threaten our friends and allies. The Biden administration is allowing the Nord Stream 2 pipeline to be added to Russia’s arsenal. Waiving sanctions on the company overseeing its construction gives Russia the green light to speed ahead to completion. It is a grave mistake. National security is tied to energy security and our European allies are at risk”

Kirsten Gillibrand said ( about National Defense Authorization Act ) : ”Sexual assault in our military is an epidemic and it’s clear that the current system is not working for survivors. Despite repeated efforts to protect our women and men in uniform rates of harassment and assault continue to rise while prosecutions decline. Congress has a solemn responsibility to protect our service members, and right now we have more work to do. The Military Justice Improvement and Increasing Prevention Act takes important, commonsense steps to deliver justice for survivors of serious crimes and prevent sexual assault in our armed forces. I am proud to introduce this new, bipartisan legislation and I thank all of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle for being my partners in this fight. With strong support in Congress, the Pentagon, and the White House this is a defining moment for passage and I’m confident we can get it done.”

Shelley Moore Capito said ( about National Defense Authorization Act ) : “While they are in service of our nation, no service member should ever live in fear of being attacked by someone they are training or fighting with or feel as though they cannot report sexual assault incidents without facing retaliation. I am proud to join this bipartisan group of senators to introduce this legislation that takes clear steps to provide members of the military with a peace of mind by moving sexual assault cases outside of the chain of command to trained prosecutions. In addition, this legislation will train and educate service members on sexual assault and will make security improvements on bases, which will help ensure the safety of those in uniform. With West Virginia’s strong history of military service, caring for America’s service members could not be more important, and the Military Justice Improvement and Increasing Prevention Act is a step in the right direction in doing so.”

And why? Because the thousands of companies that make PFAS, or use PFAS, have no incentive to keep us safe. They are safe from us, and that’s about to change. Thanks to the PFAS Accountability Act everyone who has been substantially exposed to PFAS will be able to see justice regardless of where they live, who they are, what color skin they have, and who they love”
