I fully funded the President's $23 million requests in the FY '24 bill to expand VA's childcare pilot program that we established back in 2010.

Thank you for all you do for our Nation's veterans. We appreciate it.

I am disappointed that VA is not making progress faster on this.

I am still hearing from veterans and providers about their struggles with that system and how it has undermined their healthcare.

I strongly support the administration's efforts to tackle this problem head on, including the executive order that President Biden signed in March to better prioritize investments in women's health across the Federal research portfolio.

If we are serious about protecting our families here, then we need robust defense and non-defense spending.

It should not be controversial to say that we want all of our workers to have good wages and benefits and fair treatment from their employer, and safe workplaces.

The number of children and youth found employed in violation of Federal law has risen 88 percent since 2019.

I am laser-focused on making sure the Federal Government is doing everything we can to support young people who are experiencing homelessness.

The U.S. is now one of the most dangerous places in the world to give birth.

It is crucial that we maintain strong investments in life-saving biomedical research, building a strong healthcare workforce, and public health system.

I appreciate your attention to that and I think I speak on behalf of many of us that we really want to see what we can do to help make sure NIH is really focusing on it.

Senator Casey and I actually introduced the Child Labor Act to help combat child labor and strengthen the law.
