I want to thank Senator Stabenow for her leadership in the Senate and in our community on these issues. I serve with her and Senator Cortez Masto on the Finance Committee, and I see the duo there fighting for removing a lot of the discrimination we have in our healthcare system--again, that women are discriminated against. Both of these Senators do a great job being here, protecting the rights. But it is so important that we have in our toolbox the constitutional amendment to help us in fighting discrimination so that we have a fairer playing field in the courts to protect the rights of women. So I thank her. We are also joined by Senator Klobuchar. We were elected at the same time to the U.S. Senate. She has been an advocate on behalf of equality for all communities, but particularly her efforts on behalf of women is known throughout the Nation, and I am glad she could join us today. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Minnesota.
