Mr. Speaker, the pain being felt in south Jersey and in this Nation is real. I have listened, and I have heard the stories. What we are doing today will soothe some of the pain, but it is just the beginning. America was founded and has thrived with the idea that we are an exceptional Nation. We are exceptional not because of our differences but because of what unites us in times of adversity. This legislation is a testament to our strength that we show in that unity. While we must maintain a physical distance from one another to slow the curve of our hidden enemy, we must remain closer than ever in our hearts and in our souls to one another. I stand with my colleagues ready to fight this disease, fight for our families, fight for their jobs, and fight to keep our Nation. May God bless America, and may God bless all of us as we go forward with our work.
