I wish to say to both of my friends, coming from a State that has experienced too many moments like the one you are going through, I have never seen anything quite like this in terms of flooding. But we have the most devastating fires, droughts, floods, mudslides, and earthquakes and the rest. I wanted to be supportive of what you are doing. We all need to come together and help each other here. So I will do whatever I can to make sure that happens. I ask unanimous consent that when my friend Senator Bennet completes his time I be recognized. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
