“these are the relationships that we all should have. This is the good will, knowing that we want the TAKE IT DOWN Act. We have Senator Barrasso here, who has worked so hard on this--his staff, my staff, your staff. I can assure you, we are behind you a thousand percent. We going to get that done. I just pray to God that the House will accommodate what you are asking for because that bill is so important, the TAKE IT DOWN Act. You and I cosponsored a bill yesterday that is very important and are working on that. But your graciousness on this, knowing how important it is--you have your vendors in your State--this allows us to finally get into our parks and maintain them, maintain our outdoor activity. It gives the vendors the ability now to get things permitted so they can offer the services people have been clamoring for, and we saw the demand that was coming during the pandemic. This is really, really good news for our country. I just want to thank you, my dear friend Senator Cruz from Texas. God bless. Merry Christmas to all. The PRESIDING OFFICER. And good night. The Senator from Wyoming.”
