Our statement on last night’s news. We want to thank all of our community for their continued support during this process.

Kentucky’s greatest tradition returns for its 152nd year—the “Run for the Roses” at the Kentucky Derby.

Next votes in the Senate on May 11. Next votes in the House on May 12.

As I have said since these hostilities with Iran began, the President’s authority as Commander-in-Chief is not without limits. The Constitution gives Congress an essential role in decisions of war and peace, and the War Powers Act establishes a clear 60-day deadline for Congress to either authorize or end U.S. involvement in foreign hostilities. That deadline is not a suggestion; it is a requirement. Our military has performed magnificently and with great courage and sacrifice in diminishing the threat that Iran poses to our country, our allies, the broader Middle East, and the world. Further military action against Iran must have a clear mission, achievable goals, and a defined strategy for bringing the conflict to a close. I voted to end the continuation of these military hostilities at this time until such a case is made.

The Senate has approved a short-term extension for FISA section 702 surveillance tools. The bill now goes to the House

I notified leadership that I will object to Unanimous Consent of reauthorization of FISA without warrants even if it’s just for 45 days. We already extended this once. And the House just sent the Senate a bill. How weak are we if they jam us and we accept it by unanimous consent?
