We are working towards distributing resources both in how we can give more resources for space, as well as for ventilation systems, as well as for testing resources.

The American Rescue Plan provides more than 20 billion for vaccine distribution and administration.

We know that vaccines are among the most powerful tools to combat this virus.

We are here today to continue our critical oversight of the COVID-19 vaccination campaign in the United States.

One of the things that I know that you continue to stress is that people should not be afraid to take the vaccine.

The government alone cannot defeat this pandemic. It is going to take all of us doing our part to beat this virus and return to our former lives.

And I applaud the President's ambitious proposal and look forward to working with the administration to achieve this bold benchmark.

I heard some of the Republican Members say they want to fight the virus, yet they are voting ``no'' on this bill. I would say they should do the opposite. If they want to fight the virus, they should be voting ``yes'' on this bill. Unlike…

I wanted to start out with Dr. Ameenuddin. My concern is that, you know, you have many of our constituents who work two jobs and have to take care of their family and, you know, just putting food on the table is a challenge.

The online world can affect children's mental and physical health.

The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented public health and economic crisis which has greatly disrupted our lives.

I know that Ms. Castor mentioned this with her legislation, and it is clear those rules are out of date and no longer provide the intended protections for our kids.

I join Governor Whitman in encouraging the Senate to move rapidly to confirm Michael Regan.

But I also think this is a global competition, and China is investing in the new technology.

We know that rebuilding EPA will not be an easy task after 4 years of the Trump administration.

After 4 years of attacks on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), I am pleased we are holding this important hearing today on how to restore EPA so it can once again fulfill its mission of protecting human health and the environment.

Congratulations to you all on Brownfields. We took a nascent idea from a State.

Recognizing that environmental injustices have historically been concentrated in poorer communities, President Biden assigned new duties to EPA to strengthen enforcement of protections in environmental justice communities.

Thankfully, it is a new day at EPA.

The Biden administration has hit the ground running and taken decisive action to get EPA and its mission back on track.

It is essential that we have a robust and effective and fully resourced EPA.

If those are the cornerstones of how EPA thinks about its work on a day-to-day basis, then it will be able to serve all Americans.
