Senators Curtis and Rosen, members of the Foreign Relations Committee, today introduced the Taiwan Undersea Cable Resilience Initiative Act, bipartisan legislation that would protect Taiwan’s critical communications infrastructure and deter malicious “gray zone” activities by the People’s Republic of China. The cables—critical for global communication and commerce—have been a primary target of the PRC for undercover sabotage to undermine Taiwan’s security and sovereignty.

Senator Curtis released the following statement after voting in favor of the Big Beautiful Bill, landmark legislation that secures the border, delivers permanent tax relief for Utah families, and gives business certainty on energy policy.

Senator Curtis today emphasized Utah’s leadership in making nuclear a practical and viable clean energy solution during an Environment and Public Works Committee hearing on the nominations of Usha-Maria Turner to be Assistant Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency for the Office of International and Tribal Affairs and David A. Wright to be a Member of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. During the exchange, Curtis cited past challenges and the need for collaboration with the NRC, and stressed the importance of regulatory certainty and clarity for innovators and utilities.
