I thank the gentlewoman for yielding. Obviously, in order to serve the American people and to serve their needs, we take in a lot of information--in this case, voluntary information, to determine what we can do to assist and make better…

I thank the chairman and ranking member for the work they have done together and with the committee to bring this very important bipartisan bill to the floor. I thank them both for their hard work, and the committee for its hard work, in…

The chairman has done a wonderful job as the chairman of the Agriculture Committee, and I know that you are working together to bring people together. One of the things that I most admire about Chairman Scott is that he wants to have a…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. We continue to talk about this as if this were the President's fault. First of all, in a much wider range, this is a result of the pandemic. Why is it the result of the pandemic? Not solely the pandemic…
