WATCH: Kelly Spotlights Wasteful Spending on Trump’s Immigration Posturing During Armed Services Hearing
Feb. 14, 2025“While I agree that our immigration system is broken and that we have to do more to secure the southern border, I’m concerned about the effect of these missions on our military readiness,” said Kelly. “General Guillot, last week over 100 migrants were flown to India on a C-17 costing the American taxpayer approximately $2.5 million and using up the limited flight hours allocated to that aircraft. Using MILAIR costs around $28,000 per hour or so for a C-17, that’s four times as much if ICE would’ve chartered a flight.”
Sen. Mark KellyKlobuchar, Colleagues Call on Administration to Clarify Status of Afghan Wartime Allies
Feb. 5, 2025"U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), joined by Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Dick Durbin (D-IL), Veterans Affairs Committee Ranking Member Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Foreign Relations Committee Member Chris Coons (D-DE), and Armed Services Committee Member Mark Kelly (D-AZ) called on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem to provide Congress with information on how the Administration’s executive orders and directives affect our Afghan wartime allies. Recent Administration actions have called into question whether the United States will stand by these partners and their families by giving them the support and assurances they need to rebuild their lives in America."
Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Sen. Chris Coons, Sen. Dick Durbin, Sen. Mark Kelly, Sen. Amy KlobucharKelly Statement After Voting Against Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary
Jan. 25, 2025Today, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly released the following statement after voting against the confirmation of Governor Kristi Noem as Secretary of Homeland Security, including because of concern over her comments about the Shelter and Services Program:
“As a senator for Arizona, I’m always ready to work with anyone to secure our southern border and keep Arizonans safe.
“I’m concerned that Secretary Noem hasn’t shown an understanding of Arizona’s needs, including the important, direct support the Department has provided to our border communities. I’m also worried that her plans to shut down legal screening pathways will make the immigration system less orderly, safe, and fair.
“Now that she is confirmed, I will work with Secretary Noem when it makes sense for Arizona, and I’ll hold her accountable if she takes actions that harm our communities.”
