I will ask two questions just so you have got a little more time with it.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Just wondering, as you collect the 1099-K information in order to ensure the accuracy of what taxpayers voluntarily report, why aren't we using that information to narrow the tax gap and what changes you might be looking at based on that…

Are there some proactive steps that we are taking between now and the 2022 midterms to give Americans confidence in our election systems?

What is the role of the Commission in combating misinformation about elections?

There was a Quinnipiac poll last month that found 37 percent of voters think that there was widespread fraud in the 2020 elections.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. And I am looking forward to being on this committee in the 117th, so appreciate it.

The U.S. Capitol has not been breached for over 200 years, since the War of 1812--that is, until last week, when it wasn't another country that attacked us but our own President. President Donald Trump asked his supporters to march on the…

Donald Trump lied to people about bringing jobs back to America.

The people who are tearing apart our communities are largely urged and encouraged by President Trump and that's the problem.

He's never tried to unify the country like every other president.

In Donald Trump's America, we have chaos and disorder because that's exactly what Donald Trump wants.

What the town needs right now are conciliatory remarks, unifying remarks, remarks that recognize an African-American man was shot seven times in the back in front of his children.

Should we be proactive in testing, especially in hospitals and places like that, rather than waiting for people to come and be tested?

When I ask a question, don't answer a different, please, Madam Secretary.

What are we doing, though, to go after those tax dollars that we have lost that have gone to these failed charter schools?

I am very passionate about public education, and many of these schools, because they discriminate, as a gay kid, I wouldn't have been able to go to, or I would have been beat up.

But there are failed schools. Correct?

Thank you for not having cuts this year to special education and not cutting the Special Olympics.

How much does it actually cost to produce a pill?

Are you concerned that so many of our drugs or essential ingredients in drugs are made in places like China?

I feel like this is one where we are dropping the ball.

I support the bill before us today, but we all know it is not enough. Much more must be done. In the next comprehensive aid package, we must put people first. But something also must be done about the horrific Federal response to testing…

I think they deserve some bigger answers.

I don't see modernization, I just see straight-up deregulation in an industry that you want regulated.
