“On another matter, in November of 2017, Bijan Ghaisar was shot and killed by two U.S. Park Police officers. That person was unarmed and in his vehicle. The National Park Service oversees the U.S. Park Police and still hasn't responded to a letter that Senator Warner of Virginia and I wrote to the Park Service last November. Now, we all know that Park Service officials are very concerned about the cherry blossom season. They just had a press conference to announce the peak dates of this year's cherry blossom season. Acting Director Vela needs to take his agency's obligations to respond to Senator Warner's and my letter and other inquiries from Congress as seriously as he takes the weather updates. I yield the floor. ____________________”
