I just wanted to lend words and support to what Majority Leader Schumer just said about Rich Trumka. I send my prayers and love to Barbara, his family, and everyone in the labor movement. What a strong, vibrant, committed leader. We have worked together on so many different issues, and it was always about: Is this going to create good-paying jobs? Are workers going to be able to have their voice in the workplace? Is their standard of living going to increase? What are we doing for folks? Are we bringing jobs home? Are we creating jobs here? What are we doing for the backbone of our country, which are working men and women? So I just want to indicate my profound sadness and shock and my love and support for all of those who I know are very sad and grieving at this moment. Thank you. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Michigan. H.R. 3684
