WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Representatives Susie Lee (NV-03), Mark Amodei (NV-02), Seth Moulton (MA-06), and Chuck Fleischmann (TN-03) announced the introduction of the bipartisan, bicameral Nuclear Ecosystem Drone Defense (NEDD) Act in the House to increase the protection of Department of Energy (DOE) nuclear assets and facilities related to national security, including the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), from unmanned aerial systems (UAS), commonly known as drones. Senator Gary Peters (D-MI) is leading companion legislation in the Senate. 

NNSA is the federal agency responsible for safeguarding national security through the military application of nuclear science. NNSA has a footprint in Nevada through the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS), which ensures America’s nuclear weapons ecosystem remains safe, reliable, and secure from our enemies.

Currently, the DOE lacks authority to adequately protect the full range nuclear facilities from drones. Recent unauthorized drone sightings have highlighted the need for the DOE to have expanded authorities and capabilities to combat evolving threats. 

DOE currently only has the authority to protect facilities that house nuclear material, but this excludes a wide range of facilities and activities that are critical to the nuclear security enterprise and national security.  

The NEDD Act will:

• Allow DOE to develop systems to defend a broad range of nuclear-related assets and facilities against UAS threats.
• Expand the definition of covered assets to include facilities that house nuclear weapons components and vehicles owned or contracted by the United States to transport nuclear weapons or components. 
• Give the DOE authorities to acquire UAS technology similar to that of our adversaries to test counter-UAS systems.

“Unauthorized drones pose a serious threat to America’s nuclear resources related to national security, including at the Nevada National Security Site where we maintain America’s nuclear weapons ecosystem,” said Congresswoman Lee, a member of the House Appropriations Committee’s Subcommittee on Defense. “Our bipartisan NEDD Act bill will give the Department of Energy the tools it needs to defend all its nuclear and national security assets from unauthorized enemy drones.” 

“In recent years, there has been a growing threat from both foreign and domestic unmanned aerial systems (UAS) targeting our nation’s nuclear sites, including six reported incidents at the Nevada National Security Site,” said Rep. Mark Amodei. “At present, the Department of Energy lacks the authority to intercept these drones and investigate their origins and intentions, allowing them to freely gather sensitive data for malign purposes. This bill empowers us to counter these threats in real-time and ensure they are not equipped to undermine our national security.”

“The NEDD Act will strengthen our nuclear security enterprise by enabling the Department of Energy (DOE) to protect against threats posed by unmanned aerial systems (UAS). As Chairman of Energy and Water Appropriations and Co-Chair of the Nuclear Security Working Group, it is my priority to ensure that our entire nuclear enterprise is protected throughout all stages of production. The DOE, through the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), is the cornerstone of our strategic production capabilities, and this bill ensures it will have the tools to protect our most sensitive security capabilities,” said Rep. Chuck Fleischmann.

“Our adversaries should not be able to fly a drone over anywhere in this country that makes part of a nuclear weapon. This bill closes down loopholes to make sure the Department of Energy can fully protect our most sensitive national security capabilities against the threat of drones,” said Rep. Seth Moulton.

WASHINGTON – Yesterday, Representatives Susie Lee (NV-03) and Mike Levin (CA-49) sent a letter to the Commanding General of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Lieutenant General William H. “Butch” Graham, Jr., seeking clarity on the USACE’s response to President Trump’s January 2025 order to release billions of gallons of water from multiple California dams to further a misleading narrative that this water would benefit areas in Southern California affected by wildfires. The releases instead left Western farmers and water managers reeling — and now risk setting a dangerous precedent of political interference undermining water security in the region. 

 On February 25, 2025, Lt. Gen. Graham testified before the House Appropriations Energy and Water Development Subcommittee and — while responding to questions from Reps. Lee and Levin — repeatedly failed to acknowledge that any water released from the dams could not have been directly delivered to fire-ravaged areas in Southern California. Subsequent public reporting on March 7, 2025, now appears to confirm that USACE knew this to be the case even at the time that it released upwards of 2.5 billion gallons from California’s Terminus Dam and Schafer Dam earlier this year. 

Reps. Lee and Levin have reached out directly to Lt. Gen. Graham in a letter asking for clarifying answers. 

 “Our questions centered on the highly unusual water releases from California’s Terminus Dam and Schafer Dam beginning in late January — releases that Rep. Lee collectively characterized as a ‘risky, rushed, wasteful political stunt by the Trump Administration to create this impression that somehow this water would assist the wildfire response in Southern California … [but] didn’t help L.A. at all,’” wrote Representatives Susie Lee and Mike Levin. “Reporting from The Washington Post subsequent to the hearing not only confirms that characterization, but also appears to confirm that the USACE itself knew this to be the case — and was complicit in releasing roughly 2.5 billion gallons of Western water as part of a political photo op.” 

The Representatives continued, “It troubles us that we learned this from a newspaper in March rather than from the USACE’s Commanding General when you testified before our subcommittee in February. When Rep. Lee asked you about these releases at the hearing, you characterized them as ‘completely within Corps authorities.’ While perhaps technically true, this response failed to appropriately capture and convey the context and unprecedented nature of the releases later detailed by media sources.”

March 13, 2025 

Lt. Gen. William H. “Butch” Graham, Jr. 

Chief of Engineers and Commanding General 

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 

441 G Street NW 

Washington, DC 20314 

Dear General Graham: 

Last month — on Tuesday, February 25 — you appeared before the House Appropriations Energy and Water Development Subcommittee at an oversight hearing on the state of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) Civil Works Program. We are following up to ask you to clarify testimony that you provided in response to questions from us at the hearing. 

Our questions centered on the highly unusual water releases from California’s Terminus Dam and Schafer Dam beginning in late January — releases that Rep. Lee collectively characterized as a “risky, rushed, wasteful political stunt by the Trump Administration to create this impression that somehow this water would assist the wildfire response in Southern California … [but] didn’t help L.A. at all.” 

Reporting from The Washington Post subsequent to the hearing not only confirms that characterization, but also appears to confirm that the USACE itself knew this to be the case — and was complicit in releasing roughly 2.5 billion gallons of Western water as part of a political photo op. 

“The Army Corps of Engineers colonel responsible for releasing water from two California reservoirs at President Donald Trump’s direction in January knew that it was unlikely to reach the southern part of the state as Trump had promised, according to a memo obtained by The Washington Post,” the paper reported on March 7. “Col. Chad W. Caldwell, commander of the Army Corps’ Sacramento district, wrote that the water that poured out of Lake Kaweah and Success Lake ‘could not be delivered to Southern California directly.’” 

Moreover: “The colonel had also been asked to send photos of the water to Washington, according to an official familiar with the request who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. Trump posted a photo of water flowing from Lake Kaweah on X the next day.” 

It troubles us that we learned this from a newspaper in March rather than from the USACE’s Commanding General when you testified before our subcommittee in February. When Rep. Lee asked you about these releases at the hearing, you characterized them as “completely within Corps authorities.” While perhaps technically true, this response failed to appropriately capture and convey the context and unprecedented nature of the releases later detailed by media sources. 

You also underscored the USACE’s “commitment to continue to work with the state and local irrigators to get the maximum benefit out of the water in those basins.” The word “continue” here, however, implies that the January water releases were somehow in keeping with that commitment, which is now clear was not the case. 

Finally, when Rep. Levin asked you directly if the water from the releases reached Los Angeles, you replied: “I don’t know what happens to the water once we release it from the dams.” When Rep. Levin pressed you on this point, you again replied, “Sir, I don’t know what happened to the water once it released the dams.” 

In light of the March 7 reporting from The Washington Post, please provide responses to the following questions as soon as possible: 

1. Were you aware of Col. Caldwell’s memo — representing “that the water that poured out of Lake Kaweah and Success Lake ‘could not be delivered to Southern California directly’” — prior to your appearance before the House Appropriations Energy and Water Development Subcommittee on February 25? 
2. If not, why not? 
3. Do you stand by your testimony that you “don’t know what happened to the water once it released the dams” — or do you wish to amend and/or expand upon those remarks? 
4. Is it the USACE’s position that the releases from Terminus Dam and Schafer Dam earlier this year got “the maximum benefit out of the water” in Lake Kaweah and Success Lake? 

Thank you for your attention and prompt reply. 

Sincerely, 

Susie Lee, Member of Congress  

Mike Levin, Member of Congress 

CC: 

The Honorable Chuck Fleischmann, Chairman, House Appropriations Energy       

and Water Development Subcommittee

Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Dan Meuser (R-PA), joined by Congresswoman Hillary Scholten (D-MI) reintroduced H.R. 2066, the Investing in All of America Act, legislation aimed at increasing capital available to small businesses, particularly those in rural or low-income areas, manufacturing, and those operating in the critical technology sector.

Small Business Investment Companies (SBICs) are a prime example of successful public-private partnerships, leveraging private sector investment with support from the Small Business Administration (SBA) to drive economic growth. These entities raise private capital, which is then matched with leverage by the SBA, allowing them to invest directly in small businesses. Importantly, the SBIC program operates without taxpayer subsidy, meaning taxpayer funds are not used to support extended credit in SBIC investments.

Over the past two decades, SBIC-backed businesses have generated 3 million new jobs and supported an additional 10.5 million jobs. Last year alone, SBICs injected more than $8 billion into small businesses nationwide, including $412.3 million directed toward Pennsylvania small businesses. Despite these successes, recent studies indicate that less than 20% of SBIC investment reaches low- to middle-income communities. The Investing in All of America Act seeks to close this gap and promote a more equitable distribution of investment capital.

To achieve this, the bill ensures that dollars invested in rural and low-income areas, manufacturing, or the critical technology sector will not count against an SBIC’s leverage cap, making additional capital available for businesses in these critical industries. Additionally, the legislation reinstates an inflation adjuster for SBIC leverage caps, ensuring investment power remains aligned with market trends.

Manufacturing plays a pivotal role in the U.S. economy, with approximately 99% of American manufacturers classified as small businesses. By expanding access to capital through the SBIC Program, this bill provides much-needed resources for small manufacturers to invest in new equipment, expand production, and create high-paying jobs in communities across the country.

Congressman Meuser stated, “As someone who spent more than 20 years helping grow a small business into a larger business, I understand firsthand the challenges of securing capital. Persistent inflation and rising interest rates have only made it harder for small businesses in Pennsylvania and across the country to access the funding they need to grow and succeed. By implementing additional bonus leverage within the SBIC Program, this bill strengthens investment in underserved areas without adding cost or risk to taxpayers. The Investing in All of America Act is not just about expanding access to capital; it’s about revitalizing communities, creating jobs, and bolstering economic growth in eastern and central Pennsylvania and similar regions nationwide. I urge my colleagues to support this bipartisan effort to help grow America’s small businesses.”

“Small businesses need access to capital to grow and thrive. The Investing in All of America Act brings that capital directly to rural and underserved parts of America, supporting businesses and local communities in desperate need of growth,” said Small Business Committee Chairman Roger Williams. “I thank Representative Meuser for his work to revitalize small town America through this important legislation.”

“Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, yet far too many in rural and underserved communities struggle to access the capital they need to grow and thrive,” said Congresswoman Scholten. “The bipartisan Investing in All of America Act is about ensuring that every entrepreneur has a fair shot at success. Expanding access to investment will help create jobs and strengthen West Michigan’s economy. I’m proud to work with Rep. Meuser to support our small businesses.”

SBIA President Brett Palmer added, “This is smart policy that will help small businesses and manufacturers access the capital they need to grow, particularly those in low-income and rural parts of the country, without new federal spending, regulations, or mandates.”

WASHINGTON D.C.– Today, Congressman Dan Meuser (PA-09) delivered remarks on the House Floor regarding the Continuing Resolution legislation.

Congressman Meuser said, “The Continuing Resolution the House just passed does not cut Medicaid, Social Security, Medicare, or veterans’ benefits—despite Democrats’ false claims. In reality, it gives our troops a raise, invests in veterans’ healthcare, and supports women, infants, and seniors—all while keeping the government open. This legislation sets the stage for a new Golden Age in America.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Congressman Dan Meuser (PA-09) announced a key transition within his D.C. office as his Chief of Staff, Tim Costa, prepares to depart Capitol Hill. Costa, a valued member of Meuser’s team since January 2023, will officially step down today for a role in the private sector. While he is leaving Meuser’s congressional office, Costa will remain directly involved as a trusted political advisor. 

A fixture on Capitol Hill, Costa is widely respected for his years of experience navigating the legislative process, building coalitions, and providing steady leadership. Known across the Hill, he has played a key role in advancing Congressman Meuser’s legislative priorities and ensuring the office operates effectively. His expertise and institutional knowledge have been critical to the team’s success.

“Tim Costa has been a vital member of my team and a trusted advisor whose sound judgment and steady leadership have made a lasting difference,” said Congressman Meuser. “He is well-respected on and off the Hill and has been instrumental in shaping our office’s work, particularly on the Financial Services Committee. While he will certainly be missed, I have no doubt he will excel in his new role. I appreciate his service and look forward to working with him in the future.”

Stepping into the role of Chief of Staff is Matthew Perricone, who has served on Congressman Meuser’s staff since his first term. Perricone, currently serving as Legislative Director and Deputy Chief of Staff, brings years of experience and a deep understanding of Pennsylvania’s Ninth District to the position. In this role, he will oversee both Meuser’s District and D.C. offices, as well as his legislative agenda.

“I have full confidence in Matthew Perricone as he steps into the role of Chief of Staff,” Meuser continued. “Over many years, Matt has demonstrated strong leadership, a deep understanding of our district, and a relentless work ethic. His extensive legislative policy knowledge and experience navigating complex issues make him exceptionally qualified for this role. There is no doubt that he is the most qualified person for this position. He is well-prepared to take on this responsibility and will play a key role in continuing our good work for the people of Pennsylvania’s 9th District.”

Matthew Perricone Promoted to Chief of Staff

Since joining Congressman Meuser’s office in 2019, Perricone has steadily risen through the ranks, serving in multiple capacities, including Staff Assistant, Legislative Correspondent, and Press Secretary, before advancing to Legislative Assistant, Senior Legislative Assistant, and ultimately Legislative Director and Deputy Chief of Staff.

A native of New Jersey, Perricone holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Government from the Catholic University of America, graduating in 2019.

Washington, D.C. — Rep. Chip Roy (TX-21) reintroduced two education bills Friday to defund woke, racist indoctrination and fund students over systems in America’s public education system.

The Combatting Racist Teaching (CRT) Act will prohibit federal funding from going to schools that seek to indoctrinate children with critical race theory. The Support Children Having Open Opportunities for Learning (SCHOOL) Act will empower parents by allowing federal funds to follow a student, regardless of whether the child is in public school, private school, or homeschool.

Congressman Roy said:  “Critical Race Theory (CRT) has poisoned the minds of America’s youth and represents a direct attack on the core values that made America great. No one in America—students, teachers, government employees, or anyone else—should be indoctrinated to hate our country, its founding, or their fellow citizens. At the same time, if a school, bureaucrat, politician, or union boss continues their agenda to morally corrupt the hearts and minds of students, parents should be able to fully be in the driver’s seat of their children’s education and be able to choose to have their child educated elsewhere. 

In November, parents said, “enough is enough” and gave Republicans a mandate to strip the federal government of its power over education and return it to the states and parents. These two bills will help bolster the actions taken by the Trump administration and help fulfill the mandate given to us in November.”

Specifically, the Combatting Racist Teaching in Schools (CRT) Act, would bar funding to institutions that promote theories describing:

• Any race is inherently superior or inferior to any other race, color, or national origin.
• The United States is a fundamentally racist country.
• The Declaration of Independence or Constitution of the United States are fundamentally racist documents.
• An individual’s moral character or worth is determined by the individual’s race, color, or national origin.
• An individual, by virtue of the individual’s race, is inherently racist or oppressive, whether consciously or unconsciously.
• An individual, because of the individual’s race, bears responsibility for the actions committed by other members of the individual’s race, color, or national origin.

The SCHOOL Act allows federal funds for K-12 education to follow the eligible child, regardless of whether the child is in public school, private school, or homeschool.

Specifically, the ‘SCHOOL’ Act:

• Amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act to allow certain funds authorized under those laws to follow a child, whether learning in person or remotely, to the public school, private school, or homeschool of choice.
• Allows those funds to be used for a range of needs, including:
  • curriculum materials;
  • technological educational materials;
  • tutoring;
  • extracurricular activities;
  • private school tuition; and
  • educational therapies for students with disabilities.
• Ensures each child would receive the same amount of funding, regardless of where the child is enrolled.
• Ensures that no child choosing to take advantage of these opportunities would be precluded from a federally funded school food program.
• Protects non-public education providers from Federal and State control.

Washington, D.C. — Today, Representatives Chip Roy (TX-21), Lucy McBath (GA-06), Andy Biggs (AZ-05), and Steve Cohen (TN-09) re-introduced the “Count the Crimes to Cut Act of 2025” that would require the Department of Justice and federal agency heads to compile a comprehensive report detailing all federal criminal statutes and regulations entailing criminal penalties.

Congressman Roy, Chairman on the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government, said:“Freedom is just an illusion when the government buries its own citizens under ridiculous and never-ending criminal laws. Almost any adult in this country could be indicted for some kind of infraction at any given time, whether or not they were even aware they were in violation. This needs to change; getting a proper accounting is a necessary first step to fixing this problem and ensuring Americans are not in the crosshairs of overcriminalization.”

Congresswoman McBath, Ranking Member on the Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance, said:“My first priority in Congress has always been maintaining the safety and well-being of my constituents. With the Count the Crimes to Cut Act, Americans will no longer have to fear being excessively punished and criminal justice professionals can better protect the public. I’m proud to take up this bill, and I thank my colleagues for their collaboration as we seek to expand safety and justice for the American people.”

Congressman Biggs, Chairman on the Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance, said: “An estimated 4,000 federal criminal offenses is dwarfed by an estimated 300,000 federal regulatory offenses, but no government agency can even provide an official count. We have a duty to protect Americans’ right to liberty, and this begins with scaling down the massive overreach in federal criminal offenses.”

Congressman Cohen, a senior member of the Judiciary Committee, said: “Apparently no one knows how many federal crimes there are. Our founders warned of laws being too ‘voluminous’ or ‘incoherent’ that they could not be understood. The Count the Crimes Act simply seeks to request that information from the Department of Justice as a starting point for future reform. I am pleased to work with Congressman Roy and others on both sides of the aisle to pass this necessary legislation.”

The Count The Crimes to Cut Act of 2025 would:
Require the Attorney General, in cooperation with the agency heads, to produce a full report of all federal criminal statutes and federal regulations with criminal penalties.  For each offense, the report is required to provide the following details:

• The elements of each offense.
• The potential penalties for each offense.
• The number of prosecutions brought in the last 15 years for each offense.
• The mens rea required for each offense.

The legislation is endorsed by Families Against Mandatory Minimums, the Due Process Institute, the National District Attorneys Association, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the R Street Institute, and Right on Crime.

Rep. Chip Roy (TX-21) issued the following statement after the House of Representatives passed H.R. 1968, to continue funding the government through September 30th, 2025: 

“Today, I voted to effectively freeze spending levels for six more months and to give runway for the Trump Administration to continue its efforts to root out wasteful spending. House Republicans and President Trump are moving quickly to clean up the mess left by Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden, who refused to pass a budget or any appropriations bills – despite the House GOP passing five off the floor, and all 12 out of committee.

Notably, this “continuing resolution” excludes earmarks, modestly reduces year-over-year spending, and most importantly, prevents Democrats from purposefully shutting down DOGE, President Trump, and Russ Vought from uncovering the billions in waste, fraud, and abuse that has been going on for decades.  The American people are now seeing that this whole town – THE SWAMP – has been wasting their money on absurd expenditures.

But this is just one more step, of many, in the spending fight.  

Now, our focus must be on supporting the President’s efforts to impound and rescind unnecessary spending, passing appropriations bills for FY26 at a low topline including many of the DOGE-identified cuts, and then finalizing a conservative reconciliation package We must cut the massive inflation tax resulting from rampant spending by working to deliver on spending reductions ABOVE the $2 trillion FLOOR the House passed in our budget along with making tax cuts permanent.

It’s now our never.”
