Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Agnes Turk, a constituent from the great Eighth District of Minnesota, who is celebrating her 108th birthday this week. Born in Pennsylvania, Agnes soon after moved to the Twin Ports area and has lived…

I just want to remind everybody that I think we all agree we are all here to provide oversight and ensure that there is no fraud, at least as much as we can.

We need to think about the severity of that disease because now with 62 percent of Americans vaccinated, some of that disease is not as severe as it was.

So as we move into the third year of the COVID-19 response, it seems to me that our strategy is shifting.

I think we all know that Americans need better access to rapid testing, and this is a big deal for us in terms of trying to figure out what are our health risks, how do we protect ourselves, and how do we also go about our lives?

Mr. President, I rise today with my colleagues, and I would like to particularly thank my colleague, the senior Senator from Minnesota, for bringing us together today. I rise today with my colleagues to commemorate the first anniversary of…

Mr. President, I thank the Senator from Oregon. We have had a day of tributes to those who work in the Capitol, those who protected us. We have had a day of reflection, and we have had a day of hope as we look to the future for our…
