Senator Deb Fischer

Today, we pay tribute to the peace officers who have lost their lives or have been disabled in the line of duty. Their service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

E15 is closer than ever as @SenatorFischer tells our farm director @stevewhitenews she’ll keep fighting misconceptions about ethanol to get the bill passed. 🎧 Listen to the conversation: ruralradio.com/krvn/news/afte…

Happy National Beef Month from Nebraska, the Beef State! We are proud to represent every segment of the beef industry, from cow-calf producers and feed yards to processing facilities. This month, we celebrate all who keep this industry strong and help feed families across the country.

After years of fighting for year-round E15, I am encouraged to see the House finally approve this effort today. Though long overdue, this is a major step toward securing stability and certainty for American producers and consumers – without any government mandates. I commend my fellow Nebraskans, @RepAdrianSmith, @USRepMikeFlood, and @RepDonBacon for their hard work and persistence in getting this bill passed. I also thank @POTUS for his leadership on this issue; I will continue working to get a bill to his desk.

Compared to men, women are 73% more likely to be seriously injured and 17% more likely to die in car crashes. Glad to meet with Women Drive Too, who support my legislation requiring advanced crash testing devices – including a female crash test dummy.

Hear it from @epaleezeldin: No refinery has closed because consumers had the choice to purchase E15 year-round. Q: During these past 8 years, are you aware of any refiners that have closed because consumers had a choice to purchase E15 year-round? A: I am not aware of any refinery that closed because of that.

Hear it from @epaleezeldin: We’ve operated on year-round E15 for 8 years. Q: Is it also accurate that we have had year-round E15 through a patchwork of regulations since 2019-meaning this will be the 8th year we have had E15 year-round? A: That is accurate, since 2019, yes.

Hear it from @epaleezeldin: E15 is not a mandate. Q: Is my bill or the actions you have taken at EPA in any way a mandate for a gas station to sell or an American consumer to buy E15? A: No, Senator.

Congratulations to the Fillmore County 4-H STEAM Punks from Geneva for joining a record‑breaking field in the 2026 American Rocketry Challenge! These students are tomorrow’s engineers, scientists, and innovators. I could not be more proud of these young Nebraskans! #ARC2026

My staff will be hosting a local office hour tomorrow, May 14th, for Nebraskans in Cuming County. If you need assistance with a federal agency, please stop by to see how my office can help! fischer.senate.gov/public/index.c…

Had the pleasure of visiting with the @NASAArtemis II crew following their ten day trip around the moon last month. Having just traveled farther into space than any human in history, they have paved the way for us to establish a permanent presence on the moon. Thank you for sharing this incredible experience!

Enjoyed speaking this morning with @connorobrienNH at @politico’s Security Summit to discuss my work on @SASCGOP. Thanks for having me!

.@BasedMikeLee, I agree — Americans should be able to CHOOSE whether they want to save money at the pump by fueling up with E15 year-round. We both know my Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act is NOT a government mandate. Let's stick to the facts.

My staff will be hosting local office hours tomorrow, May 13th, for Nebraskans in Johnson and Pawnee Counties. If you need assistance with a federal agency, please stop by to see how my office can help! fischer.senate.gov/public/index.c…

LIVE: GOP @SenatorFischer discusses Trump's record-breaking $1.5 trillion budget request for defense spending as the U.S. engages in a growing number of conflicts abroad. Tune into her chat with our @connorobrienNH at the @POLITICOLive Security Summit👇 twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

This week, we honor the men and women in blue who work daily to keep our communities safe. Thank you to Nebraska law enforcement for your dedicated service to our state.

Being a mother is one of the greatest blessings. To all my fellow moms: Happy Mother’s Day!

Grateful to U.S. Senate delegation for visiting Shanghai and Beijing this week. Senator @SteveDaines led the bipartisan delegation with @SenatorCantwell, @JerryMoran, @SenatorFischer and @SenMikeLee. The Senators met with Chinese government leaders and proudly represented American interests and concerns of their constituents.
