  • Ranking Member John Barrasso
    Senate Committee Musical Chairs August 15, 2018 Key Retiring Committee Seniority over Sitting Chair/Ranking Member Viewed as Seat Republicans Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Republican Seat Viewed as Republican Seat at Risk Viewed as Seat Democrats Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Democratic Seat Viewed as Democratic Seat at Risk Notes • The Senate Republican leader is not term-limited; Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will likely remain majority leader. The only member of Senate GOP leadership who is currently term-limited is Republican Whip John Cornyn (R-TX). • Republicans have term limits of six years as chairman and six years as ranking member. Republican members can only use seniority to bump sitting chairs/ranking members when the control of the Senate switches parties. • Committee leadership for the Senate Aging; Agriculture; Appropriations; Banking; Environment and Public Works (EPW); Health Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP); Indian Affairs; Intelligence; Rules; and Veterans Affairs Committees are unlikely to change. Notes • Current Armed Services Committee (SASC) Chairman John McCain (R-AZ) continues to receive treatment for brain cancer in Arizona. Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) has served as acting chairman and is likely to continue to do so in Senator McCain’s absence. If Republicans lose control of the Senate, Senator McCain would lose his top spot on the committee because he already has six years as ranking member. • In the unlikely scenario that Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) does not take over the Finance Committee, Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID), who currently serves as Chairman of the Banking Committee, could take over the Finance Committee.

The AMD program uses next generation sequencing (NGS) to bring the concept of precision medicine to bear for “precision public health.” AMD gives us new tools to detect disease faster, identify outbreaks sooner, and protect people from emerging and evolving disease threats. It informs vaccine development, helps identify and track antimicrobial resistance and foodborne illness, and informs the development of diagnostics for new, existing, and emerging diseases. AMD has played a critical role in the response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, enabling the United States to sequence SARS-CoV-2 within one week of its detection last year. In late spring of 2020, the CDC launched SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing for Public Health Emergency Response, Epidemiology and Surveillance (SPHERES), a national genomics consortium to coordinate sequencing across the U.S among public and private entities.

    30 May 2018 The Honorable Richard Shelby The Honorable Patrick Leahy Room S-128, The Capitol Room S-146A, The Capitol Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, D.C. 20510 The Honorable Lamar Alexander The Honorable Dianne Feinstein 455 Dirksen Senate Office Building 331 Hart Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Chairmen Shelby and Alexander and Ranking Members Leahy and Feinstein, On behalf of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) and its 60,000 scientist members, I would like to thank you for your strong support of the Department of Energy’s (DOE) research portfolio in the Senate FY2019 Energy and Water Development Appropriations bill. The DOE Office of Science and the Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) support everything from basic research to early-stage technology development, all necessary to keep our nation at the cutting-edge of energy innovation. The record level of funding provided in the bill will help DOE continue its important work finding solutions to our nation’s energy challenges and promoting the health and security of our communities. AGU agrees with Chairman Alexander’s views that “science, research and innovation is what made America first” and should be included in the President’s ‘America First’ agenda. AGU members work every day to promote discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity – work that will not be possible in future years without the sustained support of the Congress. Your leadership has been and will continue to be crucial to providing the robust funding needed for the nation to realize its energy and innovation potential.

    WASHINGTON, DC 20510 May 5, 2021 The Honorable Jack Reed The Honorable Jon Tester Chairman Chairman Senate Armed Services Committee Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittee 228 Russell Senate Office Building S-128, The Capitol Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable James Inhofe The Honorable Richard Shelby Ranking Member Ranking Member Senate Armed Services Committee Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittee 228 Russell Senate Office Building S-128, The Capitol Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairmen and Ranking Members: As you consider the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 defense authorization and appropriations bills, we strongly urge your continued support for the F-35 Lightning II program. We would urge the committee to support investments in relevance (modernization), readiness (sustainment) and rate (any service unfunded requirement). Today, the United States Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force, together with our allies, are flying more than 620+ aircraft operating from 27 locations around the world. The F-35 strengthens national security, enhances global partnerships, and powers economic growth. The program leverages economies of scale, both in production and sustainment, to drive down cost and increase efficiencies while improving interoperability with our partners around the world. As you know, near-peer adversaries like China and Russia continue to advance their air defense systems, develop their own 5th generation fighters, and invest heavily in emerging technologies that threaten America’s military edge. It is with this in mind that we urge the committee to ensure that a robust modernization plan is supported to continue to insert advanced technologies and capabilities into the F-35. This may require additional funds to restore previous funding reductions, address performance challenges tied to TR-3, and support critical capabilities tied to Block 4 modernization to keep the F-35 ahead of our adversaries.

For nearly two decades, innovation and industry progress has been stifled due to narrow interpretation of this language included in Labor-HHS bills since FY1999. More than that, without the ability of clinicians to correctly connect a patient with their medical record, lives have been lost and medical errors have needlessly occurred. These are situations that could have been avoided had patients been able to be accurately identified and matched with their records. This problem is so dire that one of the nation’s leading patient safety organizations, the ECRI Institute, named patient misidentification among the top ten threats to patient safety.1 Now more than ever, the current COVID-19 pandemic highlights the urgent need to lift this archaic ban.
