On the recordJanuary 28, 2019

Yesterday, January 27, we observed International Holocaust Remembrance Day. This day marks the 74th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Today I rise because we have a sacred duty to remember the lives lost to Nazism, an abominable evil. We must remember so that we never forget. We must never forget the events of the Holocaust so that we may stand together against anti-Semitism and against any such acts leveraged in the future against the Jewish people and all people everywhere. ____________________

Yes, absolutely there has to be a priority on them. The same in hospitals. The people that clean hospitals are as important as the first responders that we've all been talking about.

None of us believe that we should have anything other than elected Representatives.
