If confirmed, she will make history as the first ever Native American Cabinet Secretary, something that, frankly, should have happened a long, long time ago.

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that it stand adjourned under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 5:20 p.m., adjourned until Tuesday, February 2, 2021, at 10:30…
