Senator Curtis today announced his plans to embark on a multi-day, 250-mile walk across Utah in honor of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Averaging 30 miles of walking per day, the senator will start his journey near the northern border of Utah and end in his hometown of Provo on the Fourth of July.

Senator Curtis, member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and Chair of the Western Hemisphere Subcommittee, today applauded committee passage of eight bipartisan bills he leads and cosponsors to curb China’s human rights abuses, counter authoritarian influence in Latin America, support partners and allies in the Indo-Pacific, and advance U.S. interests abroad.

Senator Curtis joined Senator Cornyn, along with 14 of their Senate Republican colleagues, in introducing the Stopping Harmful and Outrageous Torts Act, which would strengthen the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act to provide enhanced protections to the firearms industry from frivolous lawsuits brought by anti-gun bad actors.
