I'm pressing the Trump administration for answers on why they failed to stop Megaspeed, whose executive is an alleged Chinese spy, from diverting restricted U.S. tech to China.
This fiasco demonstrates why Congress must see intelligence assessments of AI export risks, as my bipartisan legislation requires. I'm committed to getting it enacted.

Bennet wants answers on Megaspeed, including:
The DOJ's probe, whether Commerce will block its Nvidia chip buys or put it on the Entity List, closing export loopholes via Southeast Asia, and what the IC knows

This Veterans Day, we honor the generations of Americans who have served and sacrificed to defend our country.
I will continue fighting to ensure Colorado's veterans have the healthcare, housing, and support they’ve earned and deserve.
Not a cent more for this war of choice.
This is absurd.
Like sharks in bloodied water, our adversaries are schooling together to take advantage of Trump's weakness.
America must stand with our allies and partners to signal resolve to Xi and Putin, not committing to summits where the dictators set the agenda.

Over the past two days, I’ve seen firsthand the devastating damage from flooding across Southwest Colorado and the San Luis Valley.
I’ve also seen Coloradans coming together to help their neighbors.
Recovery won’t happen overnight. I’ll keep fighting to get these communities the federal support they need to rebuild. denver7.com/news/local-news/…
We already have a European security architecture. It’s called NATO.
And the greatest threat to European security isn’t a lack of dialogue. It’s Vladimir Putin.
President Trump today advanced an important discussion with several European leaders about the need for a broader European security architecture that can help establish the conditions for lasting peace.
Building on his leadership and the substantive work undertaken this week in Brussels with Ukraine, NATO, and our European partners, @SEPeaceMissions and I wanted to share some of the objectives guiding our ongoing discussions.
For more than 30 years, Europe and Russia have struggled to establish a sustainable security framework. Decades of mistrust, competing security concerns, and the devastating consequences of this war make this an extraordinarily difficult challenge, but one that is essential to lasting peace.
Our objective is to develop practical arrangements that address the security concerns of all sides, reduce the risk of future conflict, and create a more stable and predictable security environment.
We are exploring five principal goals: permanent security consultations, reliable crisis communications, greater military transparency, reciprocal measures to reduce escalation risks, and an enduring framework for long-term European security and stability.
Any arrangements must fully respect the sovereignty, territorial integrity, and independent decision-making of every nation. Each country will retain authority over its own security and alliances, and no country would have a veto over another’s sovereign choices. NATO will remain central to European collective defense, and this initiative would build upon existing institutions and commitments.
We will continue consultations through the Shell Bay format with Ukraine, NATO, the EU, and our European partners, expanding engagement to ensure that all relevant perspectives and ideas are considered. We will also engage Russia as part of the peace negotiations.
Next week in Abu Dhabi, the United States will convene the first trilateral peace discussions with Ukraine and Russia since February. All parties remain intensely engaged in preparing for substantive and productive negotiations. We will consult closely with our European partners on the sidelines and, if progress is made, aim to move toward a broader multilateral format with their direct participation.
These ideas continue to evolve, and we welcome thoughtful input. Creating the right structure will be critical to ending this war and transitioning from conflict toward conditions that make possible a durable peace.
This is difficult, detailed work. There are no easy solutions. But the opportunity to help end this devastating war and build a foundation for a more peaceful, secure, and prosperous Europe for generations to come makes it a challenge well worth undertaking.
We will see how these discussions develop and continue working intensively with all parties toward President Trump’s objective of a comprehensive and lasting peace.
Orphaned oil and gas wells threaten Colorado communities, our public lands, and our water.
That’s why I led the Stop Orphaned Wells Act to prevent more wells from being abandoned and protect Coloradans from being left to clean up the mess.

Donald Trump promised to lower costs. Instead, Americans are facing skyrocketing health insurance premiums.
Health care should be a right, not a luxury. It's time for health care for all.
My thoughts are with our Southwest CO communities who are facing more flooding after just beginning to recover from last week’s storms. My deepest gratitude to our tireless first responders and so many others who have helped their communities. Please follow all evacuation and shelter-in-place orders.

Thinking of my friend and colleague, Senator Murphy, and his family and wishing him a speedy recovery.
Open Enrollment begins tomorrow, and Colorado families are bracing for higher health care bills.
This is the fault of President Trump and congressional Republicans: they let critical ACA tax credits expire, leaving Colorado families to pay the price.
We need to restore these tax credits now. But we can't stop there. It's time to fundamentally rethink health care in America.

I agree that U.S. support to Ukraine is not charity but rather a strategic investment in our own national security. Only by demonstrating our firm resolve and commitment can America support Ukraine to negotiate a just and durable end to this unprovoked war.
I appreciated the opportunity to exchange views with you and I will continue my work on a bipartisan basis in Congress to codify and bolster our intelligence partnership with Ukraine.
Обговорив із сенаторами США підтримку України, перемовний процес та гарантії безпеки.
Провів розмову у форматі відеоконференції з головою Комітету Сенату США зі збройних сил Роджером Вікером та членом Комітету Сенату з питань розвідки Майклом Беннетом.
Під час зустрічі американські сенатори порушили низку актуальних тем, зосередившись на ключових викликах, з якими Україна стикається на нинішньому етапі протистояння російській агресії, та пріоритетних напрямах двосторонньої співпраці.
Оцінюючи посилення ударів РФ по тилових містах України, наголосив, що російські обстріли цивільної та критичної інфраструктури є систематичним терором, який не має військової доцільності й принципово не змінює ситуації на фронті. Україна критично залежить від американської допомоги у сфері систем раннього попередження про повітряні загрози для захисту цивільного населення під час зими.
Ціную зусилля США в організації та просуванні переговорного процесу, про що проінформував американську сторону під час розмови. Для досягнення результату необхідно підготувати належні умови, тому Україна очікує на прогрес під час наступного раунду тристоронніх переговорів.
Відзначив особливу важливість питань гарантій безпеки для України. Будь-яке мирне врегулювання чи припинення бойових дій без чітких безпекових механізмів не гарантуватиме сталого миру. Тому вироблення надійних архітектур безпеки за участю партнерів є одним з основних пріоритетів України.
Відповідні домовленості слід розглядати не як односторонню благодійність, а як прагматичну інвестицію США у зміцнення оборонних спроможностей і власну безпеку.
From gas to groceries, Coloradans are paying the price for President Trump’s war of choice every single day.
With just 5 days until Election Day, it’s too late to return your ballot by mail. Get it off the kitchen counter and into a secure drop box to make sure your voice is heard.
Today, we mourn the loss of civil rights leader Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farm Workers and dedicated her life to fighting for labor rights and economic justice.
It is an honor to continue working alongside farmworkers and their leaders to ensure they are treated with the fairness and dignity they deserve. Every step forward will build on decades of Huerta’s organizing, and her fierce advocacy will keep guiding the work ahead.

This decision is not only an assault on Coloradans’ health and safety, but will cut jobs and limit natural gas supply at a time when energy prices are already soaring.
I will continue to fight for these vital protections for Colorado communities.

I'm proud that the USS Colorado will lead the way as the first U.S. submarine to rotate through Australia under the AUKUS partnership.
This is a major milestone for our shared efforts to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific.
AUKUS NEWS 🇺🇸🇦🇺🇬🇧 @SecWar, @RichardMarlesMP and @wesstreeting have announced USS Colorado as the first @USNavy Virginia-class fast-attack submarine assigned to SRF-West, which will begin in Western Australia in late 2027.
