I call up my amendment No. 1242, and ask that it be reported by number. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report. The legislative clerk read as follows: The Senator from Maine [Ms. Collins], for herself and others, proposes an amendment numbered 1242 to amendment No. 891. (The amendment is printed in today's Record under ``Text of Amendments.'')

I find this deeply troubling. Reports that women and people of color are disproportionately fired or sidelined create the impression that their service is not valued.
But to be fair to the Department of Homeland Security, they couldn’t enter into contracts when the government was shut down by the Democrats.
It appears that there is good faith on the Democratic side to try to pass the CR and avoid a government shutdown, which is always a disaster.
