On the recordMarch 1, 2023
Allow me to speak on another topic today. This is a topic that I have spoken on previously on this floor, and it is one, I believe, that merits consideration every opportunity I can present it to people of good will. This topic has to do with the Russell Senate Office Building, a building that I choose not to go into because I think the name should be removed from the building. I won't go into the history of it now, but I will say this: There will be a vote at some point in the Senate to remove Richard Russell's name from the Russell Senate Office Building. There will be a vote. At some point, I will come back to this floor and will correctly state that the name of ``Richard Russell'' has been removed from the Russell Senate Office Building. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. ____________________
