Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer says adjusting to life in the United States Senate in Washington has been challenging at times.
Fischer, a Republican, says she has worked hard to develop relationships with colleagues, both Republican and Democrat. . .

Fischer says she never expected to concentrate so heavily on foreign affairs when elected to the United States Senate.
Fischer says her appointment to the Armed Services Committee thrust her into the debate on fighting terrorism and addressing the various issues confronting the US. . .

Fischer says she tries to bring Nebraska ideas and concerns to the United States Senate.
