“last week, the Democratic women of the Senate, led by our dean, Senator Barbara Mikulski, held an event at the Sewall Belmont House, which I am very proud to say put forth what we are calling the checklist for change. We came together around the importance of an agenda in Congress that meets the needs of all of the American people. We have been given an hour this morning to discuss these issues. Our first speaker, our leader, is the Senator from Maryland, who has paved the way for women not only in the Senate but in our country on so many issues. I am, with great pride, yielding to the Senator from Maryland. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Maryland is recognized.”
