Captain Mark Kelly

Thank you, Arizona.

AI is shaping the future of our economy, our national security, and our daily lives. It’s important we balance leading in innovation with commonsense guardrails that protect privacy, security, and American workers. That’s a future we can shape together.

That crew, that mission, and that moment meant everything to me — and even more that Gabby was there watching. Thank you, Endeavour, and thank you to the tens of thousands who made this mission a success and got us home safely.

15 years ago today, Endeavour left the launch pad for the last time. I was training for what would be my last mission when Gabby was shot. Four months after that day, she was on a rooftop 3 miles away, watching me go to space for the last time.

I'm in South Carolina supporting state lawmakers who are fighting to protect Black representation in Congress. Republicans are trying to draw these districts out of existence to protect their own power. It's outrageous and it's wrong.

Arizona families are working hard, but costs continue to rise — making it nearly impossible for many to keep up. Housing, health care, groceries, and energy costs need to come down so people can get ahead, instead of just getting by.

Public money belongs in public schools. I won’t stop fighting to fix this.

This National Police Week, I want to thank those who protect and serve our communities. Both of my parents were police officers, so I know how important it is for our law enforcement to have our full support and the resources to do their jobs and keep us safe.

Small business owners are getting hit from all sides as tariffs and Trump's reckless decisions are driving up costs. I came to Chilte in Phoenix to listen to business leaders about what they need. Small businesses are the backbone of this economy. I'll always fight for them.

While Trump is building a ballroom and unveiling golden statues, families are struggling to keep up with rising costs on everything from gas to food to health care. Americans deserve a leader who is actually focused on lowering costs.

China is outpacing American shipbuilding because we’ve let our maritime industry decay for too long. The SHIPS for America Act will rebuild American shipping and shipbuilding, create good-paying jobs, and strengthen our national security.

Trump and Hegseth started a war with no clear goal or plan, and now they don’t want anyone even questioning their decisions. That’s what this is about.

Costs are going up, and that means small businesses are hurting and customers are feeling the impact. Ordinary Americans are losing tons of money they worked hard for because of Trump’s decisions. We need leadership that puts Americans first.

Here’s the investigation we should have: Who decided to hit 15,000 targets and have so little to show for it except the tragic loss of 13 American servicemembers, higher gas prices for American families, and a depleted stockpile of critical munitions? to.pbs.org/4wsy4sc

There's nothing like a desert sunset with a saguaro on the horizon. No other state has a symbol quite like it. Happy Cactus Day, Arizona.

My mom was one of New Jersey's first female cops. She taught me about hard work and determination and never giving up. Moms don't quit. They push us to be better. To all the moms out there, thank you for everything you do. Happy Mother's Day.

A new report ranks Arizona as one of the least affordable states in the country. Since 2019, household costs have risen faster than the national average. Arizonans are spending thousands more per year on basics, from housing to food to child care. We have to do better.

Never saw aliens in space, but found some at Sky Harbor.

Ran into some students from the Kyrene School District at the airport in DC. It’s always great to see young Arizonans coming to our nation’s capital and taking an interest in public service. Might have met a future senator!

Congratulations to @TanyaForGeorgia! Always great to join @GabbyGiffords at the @EMILYsList Gala, standing with the women running for office to change our country for the better.
