Diversity & inclusion (D&I) is not new.

In addition to having an abysmal record of diversity within their investment firms, they have also not made it a priority to do business with diverse-owned asset managers.

I was unavoidably delayed by a constituent on the phone. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall No. 73. MEMBERS RECORDED PURSUANT TO HOUSE RESOLUTION 8, 117TH CONGRESS Allred (Davids (KS)) Amodei (Kelly (PA)) Babin…
