Barbara Mikulski: “We all feel the same way.”

As the longest serving woman in congressional history, I proudly stand on the shoulders of the suffragists who fought bravely and boldly for generations to secure women's political equality.

I want to recognize her for her leadership in that.

I just want to comment. On June 4, we are going to hold our hearing on the FBI budget request.

We especially thank Senate Appropriations Chairman Thad Cochran and Vice-Chairwoman Barbara Mikulski for their unwavering support for the NIH.
