Mr. Speaker, the health and economic crisis caused by COVID-19 is unprecedented in our lifetimes. We are seeing the number of cases rise throughout the country, including in my home state of Arkansas. After being in nearly constant communication with the Arkansas Governor's office, hospitals, first responders, and business leaders in Arkansas, relief from the federal government is needed to help fight this virus and help keep our businesses from going under. It is for these reasons that if a roll call vote is called for the vote on the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, I will vote yes. Mr. Flores. Mr. Speaker, I rise to state that if there is a recorded vote, I would vote: ``yea'' on H.R. 748, Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, as amended. As referenced in my earlier remarks during the H.R. 748 debate, this legislation takes vital steps to send cash to struggling Texas families, provide economic relief for small businesses and working Americans, and give our healthcare providers more of the resources they need. The SPEAKER pro tempore. All time for debate has expired. Pursuant to House Resolution 911, the previous question is ordered on the motion. The question is on adoption of the motion. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the ayes appeared to have it. Recorded Vote
