It is disgusting and despicable.

I am committed to continuing to work with Senator Butler to finding a way to getting this passed into law.

I wanted to begin by expressing my concern about the length of time the Biden administration has allowed the Department of Labor to operate without a Senate confirmed secretary at the helm.

I want to say I couldn't agree with you more.

Title IX was created to create fairness, to create a level playing field, to give young women the opportunity to strive, to grow, and to succeed.

It is my thought that the Biden administration is utterly failing the American people right now, and failing the Jewish community across this Nation.

That is wonderful because that is actually the commitment I want from you today.

To me, it is just a national disgrace, and it is a disservice to America's future.

I am of the mindset, as I believe probably the men and women sitting at that table are as well, this is a crisis we should be able to fix.

What resources are available, what thought process do you have?

I want to commend Chairwoman Murray, I want to commend Vice Chair Collins.

And now is the time for action.

Improving healthcare for women before, during, after pregnancy is truly vital.

So let us just stipulate that your hypothetical is the truth.

We need answers and we need them now.

We have to uphold the laws in front of us. We have to make sure that different groups based on their race or ethnicity are not discriminated against.

I have a number of concerns about DOL's new independent contractor rule, which is designed to significantly curtail the ability of millions of Americans around the country to work as independent contractors rather than as employees.

I hope that you will take all of those things into account.
