On the recordSeptember 30, 2013
Madam President, I was just speaking with my friend from Arizona, and I direct this question to my friend from Illinois. Nevada is not a heavily populated State as is Illinois, but we have a number of really beautiful systems that are part of our national park treasures. We have one, Lake Mead, which we all know about. We have about 15,000 people visit there every day. That will close at 12:01 tonight. That is about 550,000 or 600,000 people a year. And Red Rock is a beautiful place. Tourists love it, just like we love Lake Mead. We have 1 million people a year come in. This is going to happen all over America. I mentioned just a couple of things in Nevada. I will bet my friend knows of national treasures in Illinois that will close. Is that true?

Mr. President, what was just entered into the Record are references that are being made. They are awful. They are hateful. They are frightening. They are scary. I invite any of my colleagues to read these horrible acts, and I invite any…
