may I ask unanimous consent for 15 seconds also? The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

The economy isn't physics--it's not governed by scientific laws outside our control. It's made up of people making choices about our values and what kind of society we want to live in.

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Ms. Hassan). Without objection, it is so ordered. The Senator from Ohio. ____________________

Thank you, Madam President. This week, we have an opportunity to finally deliver for millions of retirees and workers and small businesses by saving America's pensions. The multiemployer pension system is on the verge of collapse…

Thank you, Commissioner Chopra, thank you, Mr. Gensler, for your willingness to serve.

Most of us have been impressed with their knowledge, their commitment, and their passion to serve.

I am impressed with their knowledge, their commitment, and their passion to serve, especially during the current public health and economic crisis.

These entrepreneurs are an important measure of the real state of our economy.

My opposition to our trade policy has been grounded in the fact that it has really hurt workers in my State, across the industrial Midwest, and really nationally.

Senator Wyden and I also led the effort to make sure U.S. law prohibits any imports coming into our country that were made with forced labor.

I support you with great enthusiasm.

Do you commit to using that provision to the maximum extent possible to defend the rights of workers in the United States and Mexico?

A level playing field here is so important.

I think it is important that we know that the history of institutional racism continues to impact health outcomes for communities.

Everything is not fine.
