“America, continue to be courageous because what is happening right now is not normal: The dismantling of agencies, including today the Department of Education, the firing of teachers, veterans, military, hacking your personal data, cozying up to foreign adversaries. This is not normal. We must continue to fight back, to push back in Congress, in the courts, and in our communities, so here is what you can do. Raise your voice. Push your Members of Congress, push the administration, push your State and local leaders, engage in collective action, and engage in everyday acts of resistance in your own life because, America, this is not normal. We will not go back. I say to you, stay strong, raise your voices, and engage in acts of courage. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are reminded to address their remarks to the Chair. ____________________”
