On the recordMarch 10, 2020
Madam President, as all Iowans know, I love history. That brings me to the floor to honor March as Iowa History Month. Here are some facts about Iowa. Since becoming a State in 1846, Iowa has raised one President--that is President Hoover--and four Nobel laureates, and is home to over 2,000 locations on the National Register of Historic Places. Our heritage is preserved by Iowans who do their good work through maintaining Iowa's museums and historic sites. I encourage all of my fellow Iowans to help pass on our history to the next generation by taking advantage of the many programs hosted this month by visiting www.iowaculture.gov. I yield the floor. I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll. The senior assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll. Mr. McCONNELL. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. ____________________
