She graduated from James\nMadison University, earning a Bachelor of Business Administration in\nMarketing and a European Studies minor from the University of Antwerp.\nAfter college graduation, she knew her major wasn't her passion and\nleaned on her favorite experience--a Capitol Hill internship she did\nfor two summers in high school for Congressman Pete Sessions.\n Courtney's career on the Hill started with an offer to join the\nSenate Appropriations Committee under the Leadership of the late\nSenator Thad Cochran, the senior Senator from Mississippi. During her\ntime there, she built relationships and absorbed information from the\npillars of the Committee. Courtney did what was needed, from planning\nCommittee Christmas parties to working on both the Legislative Branch\nand Labor, Health and Human Services subcommittees.\n During the 114th Congress, the Committee Staff Director nominated\nCourtney for the Emerging Congressional Staff Leadership Program\nthrough the Stennis Center for Public Service Leadership. Additionally,\nshe was selected to participate in educational programs through the\nWoodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and the MIT Security\nStudies program. The House Office of lnterparliamentary Affairs chose\nher to join the 2022 Congress-Bundestag/Bundesrat Staff Exchange. And\nmost recently, Courtney was nominated and then picked by Republican\nLeadership to join the first-ever Level Up--Future Chiefs of Staff\ncourse created by Republican House Leadership.\n Courtney's diverse professional experience has been key to my success\nas she supported me and my Appropriations subcommittee assignments. She\ntook on an array of district issues, such as working with USACE during\nthe extended opening of the Bonnet Carre Spillway and ensuring NASA\ncontinued its commitment to Stennis Space Center with the ``Green Run''\ntest for SLS. She learned about the U.S. Coast Guard's missions, the\nsituation at the southwest border, and how to work with NOAA and state\nagencies to extend red snapper season for the Gulf Coast. Courtney\nsorted through and prioritized my office's community-funded project\nsubmissions, which resulted in $32.2 million in direct funds for\nprojects across South Mississippi in fiscal year 2022 and $22.2 million\nin fiscal year 2023.\n While Courtney prepares for the next steps of her career on the House\nAppropriations Committee, it is my honor to recognize her public\nservice to the Fourth Congressional District and all Mississippi\nconstituents. I wish Courtney the very best.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-30-pt1-PgE1363-6", "2022-12-30", 117, 2, null, null, "IN MEMORY OF ONASSIS ``ONI'' TAMAYO YUMUL", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "INMEMORYOF", "E1363", "E1364", "[{\"name\": \"Alan S.

ALAN S. LOWENTHAL\n\n of california\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 30, 2022\n\n Mr. LOWENTHAL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to speak about the life\nand memory of my constituent Onassis Tamayo Yumul, known by most as\nsimply Oni, and to celebrate his life.\n Oni was born on a cold Saturday night, on May 10, 1975, in Quezon\nCity, Philippines. The youngest of five children, he was the apple of\nhis parent's eyes, and he was doted on by everyone, especially his\npaternal grandmother. He was a quiet boy who loved to play with his\nLegos and as early as 4 years old he began to express creative artistic\nskills.\n Growing up, Oni made a lot of friends, both his age and older, due to\nhis easy-going attitude in life. He liked to enjoy life as much as he\ncould with what he was given. He received a Catholic school education\nand was active in a religious organization called ``Days With The\nLord.''\n Oni began his work career with his family's business, expressing his\ncreative skills designing furniture. His impressive aptitude of the\narts earned several awards in school leading to his graduating with a\nBachelor's Degree in Fine Arts, majoring in Advertising. Oni landed his\nfirst professional job as a compositor and graphic designer for the\nlargest media company in the Philippines, ABS-CBN. Due to the\nrecognition of his work at the station, he soon earned a Creative\nDirector role for a travelogue where he was able to use all of his\ntalents in arts, video editing and post-production.\n In 2013. Oni joined his three sisters and moved to the United States.\nHe was married shortly thereafter to Jeff LeTourneau, a long-time LGBTQ\nand Democratic Party activist. For approximately the next 8 years, Oni\nwas active as a member of Men Alive, the Orange County Gay Men's\nChorus, while working with his husband for LGBTQ rights at the state\nand local levels. Professionally, Oni continued his professional career\nas the Marketing Director of the Bicycle Hotel and Casino in Bell\nGardens where he was loved and respected by his many co-workers.\n Sadly, Oni passed away on December 1, 2022 after a long battle with\ncolon cancer. He was loved and respected by his husband, family\nmembers, friends and co-workers. The world is certainly a lesser place\nwithout him and he will be missed by all who had the honor of knowing\nhim.\n\n[[Page E1364]]\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-30-pt1-PgE1364", "2022-12-30", 117, 2, null, null, "HOUSE COMMUNICATIONS STANDARDS COMMISSION SUMMARY OF FINAL DECISIONS FOR THE 117TH CONGRESS, SECOND SESSION", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "ALLOTHER", "E1364", "E1364", "[{\"name\": \"Mary Gay Scanlon\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", null, "168 Cong.

RON ESTES\n\n of kansas\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Mr. ESTES. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Leader Brady and\nChairman Neal for their yeoman-like work on SECURE 2.0. This has been a\ntruly bipartisan and bicameral effort that will assist all Americans\nsave more for their retirement for longer throughout their lives.\n When SECURE 2.0 passed the House with overwhelming bipartisan\nsupport, it had multiple provisions I helped introduce, including an\nincrease in RMD age, retirement matching for student loan repayment,\nand enhancing 403(b) plans.\n As the House and Senate went through negotiations on this package, I\nwas pleased to see that Unclaimed Savings Bonds was included, something\nthat I have been working on since before I have been in Congress.\n The U.S. Treasury is sitting on potentially billions of dollars in\nbonds which haven't been claimed--mostly because people don't know they\nor their parents or grandparents even own bonds. If given access to\nfederal records and the dormant bonds, most states would be able to\nmake it easy for people to look up if they own lost bonds and to\nreclaim ownership.\n Approximately $29.7 billion in savings bonds have reached final\nmaturity and ceased to pay interest. While Treasury claims that only\none percent of all matured savings bonds have not been redeemed, it's\nmuch more.\n States already have programs in place to help their residents find\nlost or forgotten assets. It's a program that I'm passionate about, as\nI helped connect Kansans with their money and assets as Kansas State\nTreasurer for 6 years, fighting the U.S. Treasury tooth-and-nail the\nentire way.\n While my standalone unclaimed savings bond bill required Treasury to\nprovide states with the names, addresses, and serial numbers--the best\nway to make sure Americans are reconnected with their rightful\nproperty--the provision in this bill makes Treasury's providing of\nserial numbers optional.\n I believe that this deliberate change is due to Treasury's failure to\nkeep accurate records. This crucial information is necessary, and\nCongress overwhelmingly intended for Treasury to provide it. I would\nlike to make it clear that it is the intent of Congress that, where\npossible, states should be able to access the serial numbers of\nunclaimed savings bonds.\n Inclusion of this provision is a positive step, but Americans won't\nsee the full benefit until Treasury stops playing games with the\nsavings bond program.\n I would briefly like to touch on the underlying Omnibus bill. It is a\nshame that good legislation supported by Republicans and Democrats like\nSECURE 2.0 has been tucked into a 4,000-plus-page bill that nobody has\nread in total. It contains highly partisan and reckless spending\nthroughout, which I fundamentally oppose.\n I believe that last-minute legislation like this is a terrible way to\nrun the greatest country in the world and I urge my colleagues to vote\nno.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-27-pt1-PgE1359-3", "2022-12-27", 117, 2, null, null, "HONORING THE RETIREMENT OF RICHARD MILLER FROM THE COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION AND LABOR", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "HONORING", "E1359", "E1360", "[{\"name\": \"Robert C. \\\"Bobby\\\" Scott\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", null, "168 Cong.

ROBERT C. ``BOBBY'' SCOTT\n\n of virginia\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Tuesday, December 27, 2022\n\n Mr. SCOTT of Virginia. Madam Speaker, I rise to thank Richard Miller\nand honor his public service as the Director of Labor Policy for the\nCommittee on Education and Labor.\n When people describe Richard, the sentiments range from ``true and\ntireless champion of working people'', ``an expert on any topic\nrelating to workers'', to ``unparalleled knowledge of the issues\nimpacting workers''. Folks have called him charismatic, meticulous,\ndedicated, committed.\n Prior to working for Congress, he helped workers organize for labor\nrights and battle union busting campaigns from coast to coast and from\nnorth to south. Through his work for the Oil, Chemical & Atomic Workers\nInternational Union, and its successor Paper, Allied-Industrial,\nChemical and Energy Workers Union, he led advocacy efforts to enact an\noccupational illness compensation program for defense nuclear workers\n(Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program ACt\n(EEOICPA); protect union rights and pension security; fund hazardous\nwaste worker training programs; enact a defense nuclear worker\n``conversion'' and medical screening law; secure a moratorium on the\nsale of radioactively contaminated metals into unrestricted commerce;\nand authorize and secure funding for U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard\nInvestigations Board (CSB).\n Since its enactment in 2000, EEOICP A has provided benefits to\napproximately 100,000 nuclear weapons complex workers (or their\nsurvivors) for diseases arising from exposure to radiation, beryllium\nand silica. As the Representative of the 3rd Congressional District of\nVirginia, which is home to the Nation's largest private shipyard, the\nCommittee pressed the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\n(OSHA) to expand a proposed beryllium rule to include protections for\nshipyard workers-particularly those around abrasive blasting. Richard\nled the Committee's effort, in conjunction with the Steelworkers union,\nto ultimately secure enforceable protections for our nation's maritime\nworkers from exposure to this ultra-toxic element.\n Beginning in 2007, Richard joined on the Committee on Energy and\nCommerce, investigating regulatory gaps in energy futures and\nderivatives markets; the Department of Energy's (DOE) program to\nreprocess spent nuclear fuel; price manipulation schemes in propane\nmarkets; crude oil pipeline safety; and DOE's sole-source contracting\nand nuclear non-proliferation programs.\n In 2009, Richard came to the Committee on Education and Labor under\nthen Chairman George Miller (no relation) and worked under my\nleadership for nearly eight years. Richard conducted investigations on\nthe Upper Big Branch coal mine disaster; the performance of the\nChemical Safety Board's investigations; contested case backlogs before\nthe Federal Mine Safety & Health Review Commission; mismanaged state\nOSHA programs; the Department of Labor's Whistleblower Protection\nProgram and Black Lung Benefits program, and administration proposals\nto cut federal workers' compensation benefits.\n Richard maintained a focus on international labor rights by\nsupporting the Speaker's Congressional Monitoring Group on the U.S.-\nColombia Labor Action Plan and the bi-cameral working group on safety\nand labor rights in Bangladesh. Fallowing the repeated fires and\nindustrial disasters killing workers in that country's garment\nindustry, and a government largely unresponsive to labor rights\nviolations, Richard led Committee efforts to enact funding for global\nlabor rights programs and to elevate labor rights as a priority for\nU.S. diplomacy with Bangladesh, while assisting Bangladeshi labor\nrights advocates in communicating their concerns to Congress.\n As part of his work for the Committee, he has drafted bills to\nstrengthen the Occupational Safety & Health Act, the Federal Mine\nSafety and Health Act, the Black Lung Benefits Act, the Federal\nEmployees' Compensation Act (FECA). As a corollary, he led efforts to\nbeat back three-efforts over six years to cut FECA benefit levels. As\npart of the American Rescue Plan Act, Richard led Committee efforts to\nensure front-line workers in VA hospitals, airports, post offices, law\nenforcement and meat plant inspectors were able to secure workers'\ncompensation for COVID-19 without having to meet an insurmountable\nburden of proof.\n He has worked to stabilize the black lung benefits program by\nextending the black lung excise tax, reducing backlogs in adjudicating\nclaims, driving reforms in coal operator self-insurance, and rebuilding\nthe black lung clinics program to ensure miners receive pulmonary\n\n[[Page E1360]]\n\nrehabilitation and claims assistance they need. Richard even managed to\nconvince me to go several thousand feet underground to visit a coal\nmine and assess its safety features. And in typical fashion, Richard\nwas quick to ensure the invitation of one of my Republican colleagues\nto join in this venture.\n The Committee on Education & Labor will miss his wealth of knowledge\nand his enthusiasm for finding ways to improve the life of those\nworkers who lack a voice but need one. We can always count on him to\noffer what he would call ``an observation, not a criticism.''\n In conclusion, Richard has led his professional life doing the ``good\ntrouble, necessary trouble'' that Congressman John Lewis has called us\nto do. I know that I speak for the Committee in thanking him for his\nservice to this House and the American People and wish him well in his\nretirement.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-27-pt1-PgE1360", "2022-12-27", 117, 2, null, null, "PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE SENATE AMENDMENT TO HOUSE AMENDMENT TO SENATE AMENDMENT TO H.R. 2617, AGRICULTURE, RURAL DEVELOPMENT, FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, AND RELATED AGENCIES...", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "ALLOTHER", "E1360", "E1361", "[{\"name\": \"Suzanne Bonamici\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", "[{\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"HR\", \"number\": \"1082\"}, {\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"HR\", \"number\": \"2617\"}, {\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"HR\", \"number\": \"4373\"}]", "168 Cong.

SUZANNE BONAMICI\n\n of oregon\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Ms. BONAMICI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of the Fiscal Year\n2023 Omnibus Appropriations Bill.\n One of the most basic and important responsibilities of Congress is\nto keep the government funded and operating, and it is our obligation\nto spend taxpayer money wisely. A budget is a statement of values and\npriorities, and this budget focuses on helping hardworking families get\nahead, supporting vulnerable populations at home and abroad, and\ngrowing the economy.\n This bipartisan bill invests in affordable child care, helps to\naddress the climate crisis, increases the maximum Pell Grant award by\n$500, provides $47 billion for the National Institutes of Health to\nhelp develop treatments and cures for chronic diseases, secures funding\nfor manufacturing jobs created by the historic bipartisan Creating\nHelpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and Science Act,\nserves veterans exposed to harmful chemicals by providing $5 billion in\nmandatory funding under the Honoring our Promise to Address\nComprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act, and includes nearly $45 billion in\nemergency and humanitarian aid for Ukraine. The FY23 omnibus bill also\nincludes the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, which requires employers to\ngive pregnant workers basic accommodations like an extra bathroom break\nand stool to sit on, preventing pregnant workers from being\ndiscriminated against in the workplace.\n This legislation includes several bills and investments I have fought\nfor this Congress. The bill establishes a permanent, nationwide Summer\nElectronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) program to address food insecurity\namong children when school is out. As the Chair of Education and Labor\nCommittee's Civil Rights and Human Services Subcommittee, I have been\nworking on needed updates to our federal child nutrition programs. This\nis an important victory that builds on the successes of the Pandemic-\nEBT program and it will help prevent summer hunger. I have also been\nfighting for increases in funding to nutrition programs for seniors\nthrough the Older Americans Act, and I am grateful that this year's\nbill responds to increasing need amid growing demand and rising costs\nby including more funding for OAA Title III nutrition programs.\n My Retirement Savings Lost and Found Act is enacted under this\nomnibus funding bill. These provisions will create an Office of the\nRetirement Savings Lost and Found to provide workers with tools to\nlocate and manage accounts after leaving an employer. Tracking\nretirement savings accounts after leaving an employer can be extremely\ndifficult, and many people lose access completely. The Retirement\nSavings Lost and Found Act will give workers tools to access and\npreserve their hard-earned savings.\n Economic inflation caused by increased consumer demand, global supply\nchain disruptions, and the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine by Russia\nhave shifted global markets and affected everyday costs. Higher prices\nare straining household budgets and depriving workers of the full\nbenefits of our growing economy. I am pleased that this legislation\nincludes a nearly $2 billion increase for the Child Care and\nDevelopment Block Grant program and an almost $1 billion increase for\nHead Start. These long overdue investments follow my continued calls to\nimprove the care economy for families and care workers, including in\ntwo letters I led that were signed by more than half of the Democratic\nCaucus. Additionally, this legislation will help families with rising\nenergy costs by providing $5 billion for the Low-Income Home Energy\nAssistance Program and expanding who can access the services of\nCommunity Action Agencies. Although these are needed investments to\naddress housing affordability and childcare access, there is still much\nmore we need to do, including extending the powerful, enhanced Child\nTax Credit that House Democrats included in the American Rescue Plan\nand updating the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit to remove barriers to\nhousing development.\n Ocean acidification, harmful algal blooms (HABs), and are hypoxia are\nsignificant threats to coastal communities, industries, and Tribes\nacross the United States. The ocean is resilient, but we cannot afford\nto wait to take action. I am pleased that this legislation invests in\nthe National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Integrated\nOcean Acidification Program to expand scientific research and\nmonitoring of ocean acidification to identify risks and inform\nvulnerable communities, industries, and coastal and ocean managers of\nways to prepare. The bill also includes harmful algal bloom and hypoxia\nresearch and monitoring investments through NOAA to strengthen research\nabout environmental stressors on our ocean and coastal resources and\nexpand competitive research grants to study threats to ocean health.\nAlthough the bill does not include specific investments in blue carbon\necosystems, I will continue to advocate for natural climate solutions\nand appreciate the investments in improving the resilience of such\necosystems included in the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan\nInfrastructure law.\n The Pacific Northwest must also be ready for a potential Cascadia\nSubduction Zone earthquake and related tsunami, so I appreciate that\nthis legislation contains funding for NOAA's Tsunami Warning Centers\nand for the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program (NTHMP) to help\nprepare vulnerable communities in the event of a tsunami. Additionally,\nharnessing energy from waves, currents, and tides is an exciting\nfrontier in the clean power sector, and I am pleased that this\nlegislation includes funding for the Department of Energy's Water Power\nTechnologies Office, which supports investments in hydropower, marine,\nand hydrokinetic energy technologies, including research at the Pacific\nMarine Energy Center in Oregon.\n Education is one of the best investments our country can make. Every\nstudent in our country deserves access to a high-quality, well-rounded\neducation, and this legislation makes investments in many important\nprograms. I'm pleased that the omnibus legislation includes a more than\n$70 million for the Institute of Education Sciences and encourages the\npursuit of quick turnaround, high-reward projects to improve student\nachievement and advance education equity--language based on bipartisan\nlegislation I introduced this year. Additionally, the legislation's\n$1.38 billion investment in Title IV-A of the Every Student Succeeds\nAct will provide students with greater opportunities to receive an\nengaging, well-rounded education and support the development of safe,\nhealthy, welcoming learning environments. I am also grateful that this\nyear's federal budget continues the long, bipartisan recognition of the\nimportance of the arts and humanities by providing $207 million each\nfor the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the National\nEndowment for the Humanities (NEH). The NEA was instrumental in\nsupporting local arts organizations during the height of the pandemic,\nand this additional funding will allow it to foster greater creativity\nand promote equity in the arts around the country.\n Additionally, I secured more than $35 million in Community Project\nFunding for 15 projects in NW Oregon that will make our communities\nstronger and create new opportunities for families and workers.\nAddressing the climate crisis and expanding access to affordable\nhousing are top priorities in my work, and these projects reflect my\ncommitment to putting forward real solutions to address the challenges\nwe face. These projects will bolster the economy in Oregon by building\nmore affordable housing, making our roads safer and more sustainable,\nsupporting small businesses, enhancing workforce development to provide\npeople the skills needed for advanced manufacturing and a good job, and\npromoting equity in foster care:\n Notably missing from this end-of-year package is comprehensive\nimmigration reform. Further inaction harms our communities and economy.\nDreamers, essential workers like farmworkers, educators, and nurses,\nand\n\n[[Page E1361]]\n\nmany more are stuck in our antiquated immigration system. Next year, I\nwill continue fighting to secure the dignity of immigrants in our\ncommunities.\n I would like to thank Chair DeLauro and her staff for their tireless\nwork to negotiate this important legislation, and I look forward to\nvoting in favor.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-27-pt1-PgE1361-2", "2022-12-27", 117, 2, null, null, "PERSONAL EXPLANATION", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "PERSONALEXPLAIN", "E1361", "E1361", "[{\"name\": \"Ritchie Torres\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", null, "168 Cong.

SHEILA JACKSON LEE\n\n of texas\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Thursday, December 29, 2022\n\n Ms. JACKSON LEE. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of S. 450, Emmett\nTill and Mamie Till-Mobley Congressional Gold Medal Act of 2021 which\nwill posthumously award a Congressional Gold Medal in commemoration of\nEmmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley. After which, the medal will be given\nto the National Museum of African American History and Culture.\n I loudly applaud and support the Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley\nCongressional Gold Medal Act of 2021. The passage of this legislation\nis long overdue and today is a monumental day for the United States of\nAmerica.\n This bill, the Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley Congressional Gold\nMedal Act of 2021, provides for the posthumous presentation of a\nCongressional Gold Medal in commemoration of Emmett Till and Mamie\nTill-Mobley.\n After the award, the medal shall be given to the National Museum of\nAfrican American History and Culture.\n In January of 1900, Ida B. Wells gave a speech declaring that our\ncountry's national crime at the time was lynching.\n Lynching was a terror tactic frequently used against African\nAmericans in the Jim Crow South. At the time, no colored man was safe\nfrom lynching if a white woman, no matter what her standing or motive,\ncares to charge him with insult or assault.\n Unfortunately, many innocent adolescents like Emmett Till fell victim\nto these tortuous killings.\n Emmett Till was brutally murdered on August 28, 1955, for allegedly\nflirting with a white woman four days earlier.\n The white woman, her husband and brother, made Emmett carry a 75-\npound cotton gin fan to the bank of the Tallahache River. They then\nforced Emmett to remove his clothes.\n The 2 men began beating Emmett, nearly to death, gouged his eye out,\nshot him in the head and then threw his body into the river.\n Despite malicious efforts from authorities to quickly bury Emmett's\nbody, his mother, Mamie Bradley demanded it be sent back to Chicago.\n Here is where she decided to invite media outlets to Emmett's\nfuneral, left his casket open during the funeral, and let these media\noutlets show the world what racist murderers had done to her only son.\n It is, of course, fitting, and proper that this legislation bears the\nname of Emmett Till and his mother, Mamie Till-Mobley. Till's slaying\nin 1955 and his mother's decision to have an open casket at his\nfuneral, stirred the Nation's conscience and galvanized a generation of\nAmericans to join the fight for equality.\n Fast forward to 1998 in the small town of Jasper, Texas, three white\nmen offered James Byrd, Jr. ride home.\n The next morning James Byrd, Jr.'s body was found. He was beaten,\nchained to the back of a truck, had spray paint all over his face, and\ndragged alive until he was decapitated, all because of the color of his\nskin.\n This was an act of unfathomable racist brutality.\n On February 23, 2020, Ahmaud Arbery was fatally shot and killed by\nTravis McMichael and his father George McMichael. Ahmaud Arbery was\njogging through his neighborhood, unarmed, and was tragically killed by\nthe McMichaels who claim they thought he was a local burglar.\n They followed him in their truck and eventually shot him as he\nstruggled fighting Travis off.\n Local law enforcement attempted to cover up the killing by telling\nArbery's family that he had been killed while committing a crime and\nthat the men who shot him would face no charges.\n Luckily, footage of the incident was taken and this footage was\nwidely shared.\n Finally, after national outcry sparked activism, the McMichaels were\narrested and charged, and convicted in the killing of Ahmaud Arbery and\ngiven a life sentence.\n This tragedy was immediately characterized as yet another modern-day\nlynching.\n More than 150 years since Reconstruction, some still try to utilize\nfalse narratives that dehumanize people of color suspected of crimes to\nlegitimate their inhumane treatment.\n Sadly, hundreds of thousands of people of color have been killed, and\nmany of the killers, like those of Emmett himself, were never\nsuccessfully prosecuted.\n Over the past half century, the United States has made tremendous\nprogress in overcoming the badges and vestiges of slavery. But this\nprogress has been purchased at great cost.\n The Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley Congressional Gold Medal Act of\n2021 will ensure that Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley are properly\nhonored for their sacrifice and commitment to equality and justice.\n In doing so, this legislation will help move this Nation one step\ncloser to fulfilling its promise that in America all men are created\nequal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable\nRights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of\nHappiness.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-27-pt1-PgE1361-4", "2022-12-27", 117, 2, null, null, "PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE SENATE AMENDMENT TO HOUSE AMENDMENT TO SENATE AMENDMENT TO H.R. 2617, AGRICULTURE, RURAL DEVELOPMENT, FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, AND RELATED AGENCIES...", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "ALLOTHER", "E1361", "E1362", "[{\"name\": \"Robert C. \\\"Bobby\\\" Scott\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", "[{\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"HR\", \"number\": \"1082\"}, {\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"HR\", \"number\": \"2617\"}, {\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"HR\", \"number\": \"4373\"}]", "168 Cong.

ROBERT C. ``BOBBY'' SCOTT\n\n of virginia\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Tuesday, December 23, 2022\n\n Mr. SCOTT of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, I intend to vote yes on the end-\nof-year funding bill. However, I object to a provision added by the\nSenate to the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA). The PWFA ensures\nthat pregnant workers who work for employers with 15 or more employees\nhave access to reasonable accommodations in the workplace for\npregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions.\n Pregnant workers are just as capable as their colleagues, but if they\nare denied reasonable accommodations, such as water or rest breaks,\nsome workers face increased health risks including premature births,\npregnancy complications, and even miscarriage. The purpose of the\nPregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) is to ensure that pregnant workers\ndo not have to make the difficult choice between financial security and\na safe and healthy pregnancy. Despite the purpose of the bill--which is\nto expand the accommodations for pregnancy, childbirth, or related\nmedical conditions--language was added by the Senate that may undermine\nthe bill's purpose.\n When the Senate finally considered the PWFA on December 8, 2022, it\nwas after languishing in that chamber for over one and one-half years.\nIt should be noted that PWFA passed the House of Representatives by a\nvote of 315 to 101, on May 14, 2021, with over 230 organizations\nranging from the business community to religious organizations and\nother groups. Not a single one of these organizations demanded language\nto exempt employers from providing accommodations to pregnant and other\nworkers with related conditions on the basis of the religious views of\nthe employers.\n\n[[Page E1362]]\n\n Moreover, when the Senate debated to take up the PWFA by unanimous\nconsent consideration on December 8, 2022, the text of the bill did not\ncontain the religious exemption language. Confidently, Senator Casey of\nPennsylvania declared that the bill ``when it comes to a final vote,\nwill have at least 60 votes in the Senate, if not more. I think it will\nbe more than that.'' During the debate, Senator Tillis of North\nCarolina objected to the unanimous consent consideration of PWFA\nbecause it ``would give Federal bureaucrats at the EEOC authority to\nmandate that employers nationwide provide accommodations such as leave\nto obtain abortions on demand under the guise of a pregnancy-related\ncondition.''\n Senator Cassidy of Louisiana rejected to that characterization of the\nbill and noted the support of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.\nSenator Cassidy read into the record the position of the Catholic\nBishops:\n ``We believe that [this] version of the bill, read in light\n of existing liberty protections, helps advance the [U.S.\n Conference of Catholic Bishops'] goal of ensuring that no\n woman ever feels forced to choose between her future and the\n life of her child while protecting the conscience rights and\n religious freedoms of employers.''\n Senator Cassidy went on to say that ``the pro-life position is to\nmake an accommodation for that woman who has those needs so she can\nsafely carry the baby to term.'' He further added that the PWFA passed\nthe House with a bipartisan vote 315 and was adopted by the Senate HELP\nCommittee with a bipartisan vote of 19-2, with the endorsement of the\nChambers of Commerce and March of Dimes, among others.\n When Senator Tillis pressed for language regarding the religious\nentity exemption from section 702 of the Title VII of the Civil Rights\nAct of 1964 (Title VII), Senator Cassidy stressed that the Conference\nof Catholic Bishops endorsed this bill because the Title VII exemption\nwas untouched by the PWFA. Senator Cassidy made clear that the bill\ndoes not touch Title VII's exemptions which allows, ``employers\n[pastors and ministers and Rabbis] to make employment decisions based\non firmly held religious beliefs. This bill does not change this.''\n And yet, just days before the funding of the government runs out, the\nSenate inserted a ``Rule of Construction'' which incorporates the\nreligious entity exemption from Title VII, countering the very points\nmade just days earlier. The lack of legal analysis and evaluation of\nthis Rule of Construction has given me pause and there is concern that\nthis ``Rule of Construction'', may be interpreted to allow certain\nemployers to deny pregnant workers reasonable accommodations based on\nthe employers' religious beliefs. I object to adding this religious\nexemption to this bill for a number of reasons.\n First, this exemption is in direct contradiction with, and undermines\nthe purpose of, the bill--by opening the door to discrimination against\nthe very people we are trying to protect. When the House Education and\nLabor Committee marked up this bill on March 24, 2021, a similar\namendment was offered by Mr. Fulcher of Idaho to exempt religious\norganizations from coverage under the bill. The amendment, which would\nhave allowed religious organizations to deny workers reasonable\naccommodations under the law, was defeated by a vote of 20 Yeas and 27\nNays. Specifically, it was the position of the Committee that this very\nlanguage would open the door to employers seeking religious exemption.\n A witness testifying before the House Committee on Education and\nLabor, Dina Bakst, Co-Founder & Co-President from A Better Balance: The\nWork & Family Legal Center, testified that her organization had\nconducted a legal analysis of nearly 1,000 court cases invoking the\nTitle VII religious exemption involving an employer objecting to\nproviding pregnancy accommodations. Ms. Bakst said, ``from a legal\nstandpoint, inserting an exemption for religious employers is simply\nextraneous and unnecessary.'' Further, Ms. Bakst testified that not\nonly is the exemption ``already unnecessary'' but also that ``ample\nescape hatches already exist for religious employers.'' She added that\n``I would hope that most employers, especially those that are\nreligious, would be amenable to providing such simple measures to their\nemployees to safeguard their well-being.''\n Second, I object to adding this exemption because it is unnecessary.\nReligious employers are already afforded significant protections to\nexercise their religious beliefs under Supreme Court precedent and\nvarious federal laws including, for example, the ministerial exception,\nwhich provides certain religious employers a constitutionally\nrecognized exemption to federal antidiscrimination laws and applies to\nemployees who preach and teach the employer's religious tenets.\nReligious employers can also invoke the Religious Freedom Restoration\nAct of 1993, which requires that government action that substantially\ninfringes on a person's exercise of religion serve a compelling\ngovernment interest and be the least restrictive means to achieve that\ninterest.\n Third, because the religious exemption language was hastily included\nin this bill by the Senate, there has not been any analysis for the\nrecord that examines the meaning and the long-term impact of its\ninclusion. For example, the ``Rule of Construction'' uses the term\n``religious employment,'' but this term is not defined in the bill nor\nis it included in the text of Section 702 of Title VII, which means\nthat it may be interpreted in multiple ways by religious employers and\nthe courts regardless of intent. Additionally, while the existing Title\nVII religious exemption is reserved for religious discrimination and\nthe hiring of ``co-religionists,'' the Rule of Construction provision\nnow applies the Title VII exemption to PWFA's requirements. It is\nunclear what the inclusion of such language pertaining to hiring means\nin a bill that is meant to require pregnancy-related accommodations. I\nam deeply concerned that it could mean that employers who qualify for\nthe exemption are not required to accommodate pregnancy, childbirth, or\nrelated medical conditions, thereby authorizing a blanket exemption for\nreligious employers. For example, would an employer now be able to use\ntheir religious viewpoint against a pregnant worker's single parent\nstatus, ``mixed-race'' relationship, ``mixed-religion'' union, IVF\ntreatment, or same-sex relationship, etc.?\n My concern about the expansion of religious exemption to protective\nworkplace discrimination and accommodation laws was underscored by the\nSupreme Court decision in the Burwell v. Hobby Lobby, Inc. case. In\nthat decision, the Court concluded that a for-profit corporation could\nbe considered a ``person'' under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act\n(RFRA) and therefore assert a religious objection to providing\ncontraception coverage for their employees. In contrast, the religious\nexemption for qualifying employer under Title VII is narrow, afforded\nonly to a ``religious corporation, association, educational\ninstitution, or society,'' and no court has ever upheld a for-profit\norganization to qualify for the exemption. Yet, in 2020, the Trump\nAdministration finalized a rule for the Office of Federal Contract\nCompliance Programs opening the door to the religious exemption to some\nfor-profits. Further, the EEOC under the Trump Administration approved,\nan updated Compliance Manual on Religious Discrimination attempts to\nstretch the exemption to some for-profits, noting that ``Title VII case\nlaw has not definitely addressed whether a for-profit corporation that\nsatisfies the other factors can constitute a religious corporation\nunder Title VII.'' By including the Rule of Construction in PWFA, we\nhave injected uncertainty instead of affirming unequivocal protections\nfor pregnant workers.\n It is also unclear how the religious exemption will be interpreted\nwhen read in conjunction with Section 7 of the bill, which provides\nthat PWFA does not invalidate or limit state or local laws that provide\nequal or greater protection for pregnancy, childbirth, or related\nmedical conditions. Adding the religious exemption could undermine this\nprinciple and result in these workers having less protections under\nrelevant state or local laws.\n The fourth and final reason I object to this language is because just\na year and a half ago, the House passed the PWFA, with a strong\nbipartisan vote of 315 Yeas to 101 Nays, without a religious exemption.\nThe inclusion of this language by the Senate is unfortunate and, the\nrepercussions may befelt by vulnerable workers we are supposed to\nprotecting. Put plainly, the continued expansion of religious exemption\nturns the purpose of the law on its head. Instead of the law protecting\nemployees from discrimination and the lack of accommodations, these\nreligious exemptions are being used as to protect the employer's right\nto discriminate and deny basic accommodation. For these reasons, I\nstrongly object to including a religious exemption under Section 7B,\nthe Rule of Construction, in Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.\n Moreover, I am disappointed that numerous proposals that I have long-\nchampioned--including the Child Abuse and Prevention and Treatment Act\nreauthorization, the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act\nreauthorization, the National Apprenticeship Act reauthorization, and a\ncomprehensive Child Nutrition Reauthorization--have been left on the\nchopping block yet again. These proposals are among the many advanced\nunder my leadership on the Education and Labor Committee that respond\nto the needs of America's students, workers, and families. To omit\nthese proposals and others from the omnibus appropriations bill is a\ndisservice to the American people."], ["CREC-2022-12-27-pt1-PgE1361", "2022-12-27", 117, 2, null, null, "PERSONAL EXPLANATION", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "PERSONALEXPLAIN", "E1361", "E1361", "[{\"name\": \"Zoe Lofgren\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", "[{\"congress\": \"117\", \"type\": \"S\", \"number\": \"3773\"}]", "168 Cong.

FRED UPTON-\n\n of michigan\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Mr. UPTON. Madam Speaker, as I reflect on more than four decades of\nservice in the Federal Government--working for our former Southwest\nMichigan Congressman David Stockman, then President Ronald Reagan, and\nfinally in the U.S. House of Representatives--I am so grateful for the\ncountless folks who have helped along the way including my peers,\nstaff, and wonderful family who have helped me do my best day after\nday.\n\n ``One cannot count on luck. It comes and goes. But one can\n count on hard work. ALSO, staying out of your OWN way . . .\n and, for most folks, that's the hardest part.''--Amey Upton.\n\n I was asked last week what I want to be remembered for, and without a\nsecond thought I pointed to a small, simple brass frame with a motto\nthat I picked up from my grandfather's desk when he passed away at 96\nyears of age. It read, ``When in doubt, do the right thing!'' I have\nkept it at the center of my desk and work at the Capitol all these\nyears.\n In this journey, I have been blessed by the sacrifice of many. First\nand foremost, my wife Amey, who as my best friend for some 40 years has\nwatched me depart practically every week for a trip to Washington,\nD.C., making 99.9 percent of the nearly 22,000 votes cast. I often was\nat one of our district offices or community events most days of the\nweek. I still vividly recall the Bangor town meeting on a Halloween\nSaturday morning in 1987 when the word came down that my wife's water\nhad broken, and I had better get to the hospital pretty quickly. Then\nthere was my son reminding me not to talk to strangers as a 6-year-old\nin the Watervliet 4th of July parade or having to miss my daughter's\nbirthday to participate in a debate during one of my 25 contested\nelections. Obviously, the sacrifice of family time they all made was\nsomething they endured, especially last-minute schedule changes to\nlong-planned family activities.\n My staff--such a blessing. Janet Zielke and Joan Hillebrands were\nwith me all 36 years and a number of others more than 20 years. Joan\nactually started as a legislative correspondent and worked her way to\nChief of Staff where she has been steadily guiding our ship for the\nlast 25 years. Corey Hanson, Mitzi Fitzpatrick, and Nivia Marquis are\nthe best in the business at solving IRS, small business, immigration,\nand veterans' issues among others. My communications folks handling\npress on local and national interests were always terrific, Caroline\nBanaszak and Jamal Ware helped finish up strong. Dale Shugars and Mike\nRyan ran my two district offices, and I have known them both for many\ndecades as leaders in their respective communities of Portage and St.\nJoseph. And before them, Al Pscholka, John Proos, Jeff Breneman, Clay\nMcCausland, and Jack Baker held those same titles. Kaitlyn Peterson was\nmy front desk traffic cop directing many constituent inquiries. All in\nall, we handled more than 1 million constituent inquiries. All my staff\ncarried the same passion to do the right thing from the start. Whether\nit be D.C. staff or here at home, they effectively and proudly served\nso many thousands of people in our communities.\n Every Congressional office is different, but I established ours with\nmy 2 Michigan offices handling my constituent services, and my D.C.\nstaff preparing me on legislative issues. Almost everyone started as an\nintern, answering the phone, and hearing from constituents by answering\nthe mail (remember, the internet didn't become widely available until\nthe late 90s). From there, they moved up and were recognized for the\nexperience they gained and dedication they demonstrated. My former\nscheduler and Officer Manager Bits Thomas started as an intern and then\nwas my ``doorkeeper'' for a decade before she moved back to Michigan\nwith her family. Her stellar successor, Suzanne Scruggs, once worked\nfor a Cabinet member and is married to one of my first volunteers from\n1986, who later became my Legislative Director. He later went to law\nschool at night and now helps run one of the most prestigious firms in\nWashington.\n Alec Zender was with us several years helping our farmers and small\nbusinesses, then went to fellow Michigander Rep. Jack Bergman.\n Last but not least, the point man and architect who shepherded 21st\nCentury Cures, Mark Ratner. As resident comedian and my MSU sports\nrival, he served as my legislative right-hand man for nearly 20 years.\n And the list goes on. I am so proud of our team. I've been involved\nwith a long list of issues, so long that there has been little time to\nstop and ``smell the roses.''\n It was the late State Senator Harry Gast who convinced me to serve on\nthe House Transportation Committee when I was first elected so I could\nhelp complete US-31 connecting three interstates in Berrien County.\nThere were a lot of bumps, potholes, and butterflies along the way, but\nI am happy to say the project is now complete. Also, my amendment in\nthat first 5-year highway bill increased Michigan's share of each\nfederal dollar from 72 cents to 90 cents, providing billions that would\nhave otherwise gone to other states. Later helping to widen and improve\n1-94 with US-131 moving east towards I-69.\n Moving from Transportation to the powerful Energy & Commerce\nCommittee in 1991 I had a terrific mentor in Chairman John Dingell. I\nserved as Chair of the Oversight, Telecommunications, & Energy\nSubcommittees which eventually led to me becoming Chair of the full\ncommittee from 2010 to 2016. Speaker Newt Gingrich changed the\nseniority rules making the chairs compete for the chairmanships with a\n6-year term limit. Without that change, I would still be sitting as a\nsenior member of the committee but still not having had a chance to\nlead it.\n Yes, bipartisanship was always a guiding principle. I learned that at\nthe Reagan White House where a GOP President worked with a Democrat-\ncontrolled Congress and got things done. Quite frankly, quite a few\nAmericans probably voted with both hands to fill in ballot circles or\npunch the chad for him in 1980 yet we saw him win in a landslide 4\nyears later except for Mondale's Minnesota. I always kept one of\nReagan's mottos in mind, ``It doesn't matter who gets the credit, as\nlong as the job gets done.''\n The Great Lakes has always been a top priority for me. I've worked to\nban micro-beads, ensure water quality funds, establish an oil spill\nresponse team, pipeline safety and delivered on a plan with Governor\nRick Snyder to replace Line 5 under the Mackinac Bridge at a $500\nmillion cost. I also spent time ensuring dredging our harbors, battling\nAsian carp, and authorizing a new lock for the Soo. If the 60-year-old\nlock went down, it would literally double the Nation's unemployment as\niron ore could not make it to the steel mills for autos, appliances,\nand our manufacturing industries.\n As a vice-chair of the bipartisan Problem Solver's Caucus (PSC), we\nmet virtually every week and were instrumental in passing the CHIPS and\nInfrastructure bills to help America remain competitive. We also played\na role in the Paycheck Protection Plan (PPP) that enabled so many of\nour small businesses to keep their employees paid during the COVID\nshutdown and provide a lifeline to maintain their presence.\n On the morning of September 11, 2001, I drove through the Pentagon\nparking lot about an hour before the plane hit the building. General\nVan Antwerp, whom I had grown up with on my street in St. Joseph, was\nspared because he was at a meeting out of the building, but a number of\nhis staff were killed. As the Telecommunications Subcommittee Chair, I\nled a number of colleagues to New York City a few days later, where the\nrescue mission was still taking place at Ground Zero. We later passed\nlegislation that was the top priority noted by the 9/11 Commission's\nreport to allocate broadcast spectrum allowing law enforcement to have\ntheir own frequency to communicate. We did such by forcing the\nbroadcasters to convert their analogue broadcast signal to digital and\nselling that newly created spectrum to the highest bidders in the\ntelecommunications industry. This allowed them to produce devices with\ntext and video, which created the 5G network, hundreds of thousands of\njobs, and generated revenue to reduce the deficit.\n\n Supporting our troops and our brave veterans was always the easiest\nvote I cast. Whether it be Agent Orange or Burn Pits benefits or\nvisiting our troops in harm's way in Iraq or Afghanistan, visiting our\nmilitary hospitals here and overseas, count me as a grateful American.\nAllowing our vets to receive medical care in their home community if\nthey prefer versus traveling across the state to a VA facility was also\na choice I supported.\n I have had the opportunity to have many classified briefings on\nChina, Ukraine, Russia,\n\n[[Page E1350]]\n\nand protecting American interests. We are a free nation because of our\nbrave. It always has been a favorite moment for me to nominate\nqualified young men and women to attend our military academies. General\nEmery Upton was in the West Point class with George Custer and later\nserved as Commandant. His statue is on Little Round Top in Gettysburg.\nAnd my 98-year-old dad served in World War II, including the Battle of\nthe Bulge.\n Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell called the enactment of 21st\nCentury Cures the most important legislative achievement in that\nCongress when President Obama signed it into law in December 2016. I\nled a 3-year effort as chair of the Energy & Commerce Committee to pass\nthis legislation, which expedites the FDA approvals of drugs and\ndevices and was coupled with $45 billion in additional health research\nfunding. We literally held dozens of round table discussions, hearings,\nmeetings with disease groups, the FDA, National Institutes of Health\n(NIH), pharmaceutical companies, and research institutions like the\nUniversity of Michigan, MD Anderson, Mayo Clinic, Harvard, and the\nMilken Institute. Fast forward 4 years to COVID. Pfizer's CEO told his\nfolks that they would spend ``whatever it takes'' to find a vaccine and\nthankfully were successful. Cures allowed them to produce the vaccine\nprior to the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) and be able to deliver\nit across the country the very next day after receiving the EUA in\nDecember of 2020. This was probably 6-8 months earlier than would have\nhappened without our legislation, saving hundreds of thousands American\nlives. Then-Vice President Joe Biden played a pivotal hands-on role,\nand we included the $1 billion Beau Biden Cancer Moonshot initiative as\npart of this bill. One of our great sources was Nobel Prize winner\nimmunologist Jim Allison whose breakthroughs have been the answer to\nthousands.\n The terrible events of January 6 continue to dominate the news nearly\ntwo years later, including this week's release of the final committee\nreport. That morning, I walked through the House floor back to my\nRayburn office where I watched many of the protesters parading under my\nbalcony to the White House grounds. I then watched the President's\nspeech to the crowd on TV before they came back to the Capitol and\ncertainly attempted to violently disrupt the counting of the electoral\nvotes cast by each state. I saw the gallows on the Capitol lawn\nintended for Mike Pence, and thanked some of the SWAT team members\nlaying exhausted in the Rotunda. Chilling. Michigan was one of the 4\nstates that was going to be challenged despite the 154,000-vote\ndifference. To date, there is still no credible evidence that our vote\nwas fraudulent. I voted absentee in that election, as I did this last\nNovember 8, and I am confident that our system works. Under the law\nestablished in the 1800s, it only takes 1 Member from the House and\nSenate to force the full House and Senate to reconsider. This week the\nHouse and Senate adopted a legislative change requiring a minimum of 20\npercent of each body to challenge a states' certified count. In my\nestimation we avoided a massacre of my colleagues on the House floor by\nonly 10-15 minutes. Trump's later statement that he did everything\n``totally appropriate'' was a key factor for my impeachment vote a week\nlater and my support for a bipartisan January 6 congressional\ncommission. In my view, the commission's unanimous support for their\nreport issued this week prevented the facts from being swept under the\nrug and helped ensure preservation of the peaceful transfer of\npresidential power.\n More than a 1,000 folks provided testimony to get the truth that\notherwise never would have been told. Where were these same souls who\nknew the intimate story when we debated impeachment? Crickets.\n One regret I will share was the failure of the Super Committee a\ndozen years ago to deal with the deficit. It had 6 members of the House\nand Senate: 6 Republicans and 6 Democrats. The rule was that we had to\nget 7 votes, and we could never get more than 6 as it turned out. We\nspent a couple months negotiating different alternatives but could\nnever quite get there. I was one of the ``aye'' votes with fellow\nMichigan colleague and Chair of the House Ways & Means Committee Dave\nCamp, but we were 1 vote short. The looming budget deficit remains a\nthreat that most certainly future leaders must address.\n My last 2 days in Congress were action packed. On Wednesday evening,\nI attended a joint session of Congress in which we heard from the\nPresident of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Earlier this year, I had a\nchance to listen as Zelenskyy addressed the bipartisan Problem Solvers\nCaucus by Zoom. It was encouraging to now see him in person as he makes\nthe compelling case for Ukraine directly to the American people and\ntheir representatives. I have had the opportunity during my career to\nwatch presidential national addresses and world leaders speak to the\nCongress such as Nelson Mandela, Queen Elizabeth, the Pope, and others\nfrom around the globe. I was especially proud to listen to President\nZelenskyy on one of my very last days serving in the U.S. Congress.\n The House and Senate cleared a $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill to\nkeep the government open and funded through the 2023 fiscal year. I\nvoted for the package, funding a number of priorities, including a 10-\npercent increase in defense spending to $858 billion. The bill also\nincludes $1.5 billion for the Advanced Research Projects Agency, that\nlike its defense counterpart, will fund cutting-edge research that has\nthe potential to save millions of lives. This is the next step for 21st\nCentury Cures. The bill also includes $45 billion to help Ukraine\ndefend its freedom and citizens against Russia's brutal invasion,\nincluding barbaric attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure.\n I supported Congress acting this year because it avoids the risk of a\ngovernment shutdown to start the New Year, given the narrow majorities\nin the House and Senate. A shutdown would threaten America's security\nand cause disruption to vital domestic programs, including those that\nhelp improve health outcomes in our nation. It clears the deck for the\nnext Congress to start fresh on FY '24 rather than mop up unfinished\nbusiness 4 months into FY '23.\n On a closing note, I leave you with the words of a brave young woman:\n\n ``How wonderful is it that nobody need wait a single moment\n before starting to improve the world.''--Anne Frank\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1350-2", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "RECOGNIZING NICOLE DAMASCO FOR HER DISTINGUISHED PUBLIC SERVICE", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "RECOGNIZING", "E1350", "E1351", "[{\"name\": \"Jerry McNerney\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", null, "168 Cong.

JERRY McNERNEY\n\n of california\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Mr. McNERNEY. Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in\nrecognizing my Chief of Staff, Nicole Damasco, for her outstanding\ncommitment and dedication to serving California's 9th Congressional\nDistrict, the former\n\n[[Page E1351]]\n\n11th Congressional District of California, the great state of\nCalifornia, and our country. Nicole is one of the most exceptional\nstaff members, leaders, and public servants that I have had the\npleasure of working with, and it has been an honor to have had her\nleading my staff for the past 16 years during my time in Congress.\n Nicole was born in Las Vegas, Nevada, and grew up wanting to make\npositive change in her country and the world. Her father and\nstepmother, Jude and Julia Damasco, instilled in her a strong work\nethic and the importance of serving the community and those in need,\nand she credits her grandmother, Maria Damasco, for being an\ninspiration in her life and always being there for her. Throughout high\nschool, she spent time registering voters in San Francisco and the Bay\nArea and volunteering for the San Francisco Democratic Party. Although\nshe is a talented artist and studied architecture in Italy during\ncollege, she felt the best way to make a difference in her community\nwas to pursue a career in public service. She transferred to University\nof California, Santa Cruz to pursue a degree in Politics. While there,\nshe interned for the Santa Cruz County Women's Commission for 2 years\nand participated in the University of California, Washington DC (UCDC)\nprogram, interning in Senator Barbara Boxer's Washington, DC office.\n After graduating from University of California, Santa Cruz in 2002,\nNicole was hired as a Constituent Representative in Senator Barbara\nBoxer's office in San Francisco. She proved to be a skilled and\ndedicated employee and was soon promoted to Assistant to the Director\nof Constituent Services. In 2004, she became a Legislative\nCorrespondent in Senator Boxer's Los Angeles office and was part of a\nteam that changed how legislative correspondence was handled by\ntransitioning to a centralized, digitized, state-based constituent\ncorrespondence system. It was an innovative approach that allowed the\nSenator to quickly receive and send constituent responses. Nicole did\nnot know it at the time, but her team helped lay the groundwork for how\nstate and district-based constituent correspondence is now handled in\nmany congressional offices.\n In 2006, Nicole returned to the Bay Area and continued to work in\nSenator Boxer's San Francisco office. During that time, she volunteered\nfor my Congressional campaign because she felt that I could truly help\nimprove the lives of people in our community. Thanks to the hard work\nby many excellent staff and volunteers like Nicole, I was elected to\nCongress that same year, and I asked Nicole to join my team as my\nDirector of Constituent Services and Field Representative. Nicole went\nto work right away, laying the foundation for and building my casework,\nfield outreach, and constituent services programs from the ground up.\nShe made it her mission to make sure that everyone who reached out to\nmy office for assistance would receive the best service possible. She\nensured that quality constituent service was engrained in the culture\nof my office. Thanks in large part to her tireless efforts, I am proud\nto say that my office has helped many thousands of individuals over the\nyears.\n It was clear that Nicole was a natural leader when I hired her, and I\npromoted her to District Director in less than a year of her being on\nmy staff. She took over, leading my entire District team at a time when\npeople in the country and my district were hurting the most. During the\nsubprime mortgage crisis in 2008, people were losing their jobs, homes,\nand lifesavings. Continuing to lead with a constituent-focused approach\nto her work, Nicole put together a team that would be laser focused on\nserving the people of California's 11th and 9th Congressional Districts\nthroughout those difficult times. She immediately acted to help\norganize the first-of-its-kind housing and mortgage assistance events\nin the country with the purpose of keeping people in their homes. She\nalso helped organize job fairs and events that connected thousands of\npeople with jobs, and made sure struggling veterans and seniors were\ninformed of and received the services available to them. I know without\na doubt that because of Nicole's perseverance and tenacity, we made an\nimpact on many people and were there for them during some of the\ndarkest periods of their lives.\n Nicole stood tall and helped lead my team, all while facing great\nadversity herself. At the beginning of her career with my office, she\nprovided care for her half-sister, Jessica, who ended up tragically\ntaking her life in 2009. Nicole's stepfather and grandfather had also\ntaken their lives shortly before, all of which took a toll on her\nmother and made it clear that Nicole needed to step up and help care\nfor her other half-sister, Alaina. Throughout all this tragedy, Nicole\nkept a brave face, continuing to work hard and lead my office while\nalso becoming Alaina's legal guardian and providing a stable home for\nher sister. Unfortunately, Nicole's mother also ended up taking her\nlife, but thanks in part to Nicole's support, her sister has thrived,\ngraduating from high school and with highest honors from University of\nCalifornia, Berkeley, studying and traveling around the world, and\nstarting a successful career of her own. Nicole is very proud of her\nsister's accomplishments and is grateful for the special bond they\nshare.\n After serving as my District Director during some of the greatest\nchallenges in our nation's history and following some very hard-fought\ncampaigns, I asked Nicole to move across the country and become my\nChief of Staff. She didn't hesitate and since 2013, she has led my team\nas Chief of Staff with great dedication and conviction. Due largely to\nNicole's efforts, my office has had one of the highest retention rates\nand one of the most diverse staffs in Congress. Throughout her time as\nChief of Staff, she has greatly contributed to my success in Congress,\nhelping move forward my legislative priorities and those of my district\n As a strong leader and with her creative, out-of-the-box thinking,\nNicole empowered and motivated my staff to take every opportunity to\nserve my district and lead on important issues that make a difference\nin people's lives. This was especially evident during the COVID-19\npandemic, at which time Nicole immediately transitioned my staff to\nremote work and successfully kept my office operating at full capacity\nto continue serving our constituents and bring them the most up-to-date\ninformation without knowing what the days, weeks, and months ahead had\nin store.\n Throughout my time in office, Nicole has helped pave the way for my\nmajor accomplishments, from the long-awaited construction of a\nveterans' clinic in French Camp, to helping improve our water,\ntechnology, energy, and environmental policy. Nicole made sure that my\nconstituents and my district always came first and that bringing\nservices and resources to our community always remained the priority.\n I would be remiss if I didn't mention that Nicole's dedication to\nserving others not only extends to humans but to animals, too. Over the\nyears, she has opened her home to over 15 animals--including rabbits,\ncats, dogs, a hamster, and even an iguana. Nicole has also personally\nrescued over 25 stray and injured animals from the streets of my\ndistrict. She took them in, rehabilitated, and rehomed them, and with\nthe invaluable and generous help of Harvest Home Animal Sanctuary in\nStockton, ensured that the animals that crossed her path found good,\nloving homes. Her heart knows no bounds, and she continuously\ndemonstrates the true meaning ofselflessness.\n Nicole's colleagues describe her as compassionate, understanding, and\nalways there for them when they need her, no matter how big or small\nthe issue. She does everything possible to see that staff have the\ntools and support they need to see the job through. Beyond being a boss\nand supervisor, Nicole is a friend and mentor to many and is there for\nthe team when they need advice and support.\n Nicole Damasco is an outstanding employee, boss, colleague, friend,\nmentor, and leader. Her commitment, focus, kindness, and compassion are\nunrivaled. She has dedicated over 20 years of her life to public\nservice and is the embodiment of what a public servant should be.\nThroughout my career in Congress, she has supported me and my team and\nhas made a lasting impact on the lives of my constituents. With great\nappreciation and admiration for her, I ask my colleagues to join me in\nrecognizing Nicole Damasco for her distinguished and invaluable\nservice.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1350", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "RECOGNIZING THE 2022 LORDS AND LADIES OF FAIRFAX", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "RECOGNIZING", "E1350", "E1350", "[{\"name\": \"Gerald E.

CHRIS JACOBS\n\n of new york\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Mr. JACOBS of New York. Madam Speaker, I rise today to join the\nWestern New York Community in commending the honorable service of\nAfrican American veterans throughout the history of the United States\nmilitary.\n The recently unveiled African American Veterans Monument in Buffalo,\nNew York, highlights the contributions made by African American service\nmembers to our country. These contributions cannot be understated.\n I commend all who supported the development and construction of this\nproject, including the Erie County Chapter of the Links for taking the\nsteps necessary to honor these veterans. This unique monument now\nstands as a symbol and reminder on the Buffalo waterfront to all\nWestern New Yorkers of the sacrifices that these brave individuals made\nto preserve our freedoms.\n From the Revolutionary War onwards, 2.1 million African Americans\nserved this country with unconditional valor. Over 90 African Americans\nhave been awarded the Medal of Honor, our nation's preeminent military\ncommendation. Out of admiration for these esteemed veterans, many of\nWestern New York's community leaders banded together to demonstrate our\nthanks for their sacrifices--a gesture that many of us believe is long\noverdue.\n The symbolism undergirding this monument uniquely pairs with the\ntraits displayed by the generations of African American men and women\nwho have served our country. Located at the Erie County Naval &\nMilitary Park, the monument consists of 12 pillars representing the 12\nmilitary conflicts in which these veterans demonstrated their strength,\ncourage, and patriotism. The top of each pillar is illuminated by a\nbeacon of light, referencing the practice that active-duty military\nfamilies used to guide their loved ones home. These illuminations will\nglow eternally, along with our nation's everlasting appreciation to its\nAfrican American servicemembers.\n We must continue to recognize and commemorate those who sacrificed on\nbehalf of our nation and fought on our country's many historic\nbattlefields. Our selfless and courageous African American veterans of\nWestern New York and the greater United States will forever be\nremembered within our local community. It is my honor to represent\nthese veterans, along with the members of our community who crafted\nthis historic monument.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1354-2", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "DECLARING ARCHIVED RECORDS OF THE SELECT COMMITTEE ON THE MODERNIZATION OF CONGRESS TO BE AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC USE", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "ALLOTHER", "E1354", "E1354", "[{\"name\": \"Derek Kilmer\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", null, "168 Cong.

Madam Speaker, as Chair of the Select Committee on the\nModernization of Congress, I wish to include in the Record a letter\nVice Chair William Timmons and I sent on December 22 to the Acting\nArchivist of the United States. The letter communicates our committee's\ndesignation of all records that the Archivist receives for archiving,\nas our committee draws to a close, as available for public use.\n This letter takes an important step towards the kind of openness that\nthe Modernization Committee has championed as part of our over 200\nrecommendations and over 40 hearings held since the beginning of the\n116th Congress to make the institution more effective, efficient, and\ntransparent on behalf of the American people. Having our records\navailable for public use will also aid future reform committees,\nresearchers, and the public alike to advance the cause of modernization\ngoing forward.\n I ask my colleagues to join me in taking this important step towards\nrecognizing the value of transparency and the legacy of the\nModernization Committee.\n\n Congress of the United States,\n\n Washington, DC, December 22, 2022.\n Ms. Debra Steidel Wall,\n Acting Archivist of the United States, The United States\n National Archives and Records Administration, Washington,\n DC.\n Dear Ms. Wall: As Chair and Vice Chair of the Select\n Committee on the Modernization of Congress (``Modernization\n Committee''), we are writing to let you know that we consider\n any and all Modernization Committee records that you receive\n from the Office of the Clerk for purposes of archiving to be\n available for public use. in accordance with Clause 3 of\n House Rule VII.\n Established in the 116th Congress and extended through the\n 117th Congress, the Modernization Committee has been tasked\n to investigate, study, make findings, hold public hearings,\n and develop recommendations to make Congress more effective,\n efficient, and transparent on behalf of the American people.\n To this end, we have issued over 200 recommendations and held\n over 40 hearings over the last four years to improve the day-\n to-day functioning of the House.\n A pillar of the Modernization Committee's work has been to\n enhance the transparency of the House and of the legislative\n process. As such, we believe it is important to make our\n archived materials available for the public as soon as\n possible.\n In addition, one of our final recommendations was that the\n House ``should authorize a Modernization Select Committee at\n least every fourth Congress.'' If the House implements this\n recommendation, a future select committee would benefit\n tremendously from having our records and analyses at its\n immediate disposal, as these documents collectively\n constitute a wealth of information about our work and the\n issues that our members and staff discussed.\n Absent a committee order, we understand our archived\n records would remain sealed for up to 30 years by default\n under Rule VII. For the above reasons, though, we wish to\n make you aware that, should you receive requests from other\n committees or interested parties, we consider the records\n reserved from our committee for archiving to be available for\n public use. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.\n Sincerely,\n Derek Kilmer,\n Member of Congress.\n William R. Timmons IV,\n Member of Congress.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1354-3", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF SEWA INTERNATIONAL USA", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "RECOGNIZING", "E1354", "E1355", "[{\"name\": \"Gerald E.

Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the service of\nthe thousands of Sewa International USA employees to assist underserved\ncommunities around the world throughout the Coronavirus pandemic.\n Sewa International USA was founded in 2003 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit\ncharity organization. Comprised of 43 chapters with more than 5,000\nvolunteers across the country, Sewa workers take inspiration from the\nHindu principles of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam--meaning ``the whole world is\none family''--and Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah--meaning ''may all be\nhappy.'' These complementary outlooks have driven volunteers to serve\nhumanity in times of distress.\n This service takes many forms. Sewa volunteers work with local\ncommunities to coordinate developmental projects and mobilize partners,\ndonors, and on-the-ground volunteers to make meaningful changes in the\nface of disaster. Sewa has organized volunteer service in the wake of\n30 disasters over the last two decades, including the recovery efforts\nafter Hurricane Katrina in 2005, Hurricane Harvey in 2017, and the\nCalifornia wildfires in 2019 and 2020. Internationally, they have\nassisted after some of the world's greatest crises in recent memory,\nfrom Haiti's 2012 earthquake to Pakistan's 2013 flooding to the\nevacuation efforts from ongoing war in Ukraine.\n As Russia's invasion of Ukraine rages on, Sewa International\nvolunteers are conducting massive evacuation efforts to help thousands\nof students escape the violence. Their erroneous network has been\ninvaluable in the last few years, providing $15 million worth of food,\nPPE, and medical supplies to those in need. Regardless of the type of\ncrisis, Sewa International always finds meaningful ways to help.\n Without regard for race, religion, gender. sexual orientation, or\nnationality, Sewa International USA has done tremendous work to\nameliorate the effects of some of the world's greatest disasters.\nHundreds of thousands of people benefit from their work every year, and\nI am proud to represent some of these volunteers in Congress. These\nvolunteers work tirelessly across the globe to aid those who are most\nvulnerable, and it is no surprise that they are one of the seven key\ntrusted partners of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.\n Madam Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in commending the\nextraordinary service of Sewa International USA and their thousands of\nvolunteers. Their work over the last two decades has been invaluable in\nrecovery\n\n[[Page E1355]]\n\nefforts around the globe, and reminds us all to take every opportunity\nwe have to assist those around us. I wish them every continued success\nin their efforts to bring our one family closer together and promote\nhappiness for all.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1354", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "SUPPORTING FY23 OMNIBUS", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "ALLOTHER", "E1354", "E1354", null, null, "168 Cong.

BETTY McCOLLUM\n\n of minnesota\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Ms. McCollum. Madam Speaker, I rise in strong support of the\nConsolidated Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2023.\n I want to thank Chair DeLauro for her tireless work to finish this\nlegislation--she deserves great credit.\n As Chair of the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, I marked up the\nHouse Defense bill to President Biden's original request of $761.7\nbillion.\n I felt his number was an appropriate level of funding for our\nnational security.\n While I agree that we must make adjustments based on inflation and\nother global events, I am disappointed in the Senate's insistence on\nincreasing defense spending at the expense of domestic priorities.\n We must realize that our national security is not defined by defense\ndollars alone--we damage our national security when we don't adequately\naddress the needs of the American people: in education, health care,\nand other critical investments here at home.\n Turning to the Defense bill--for Fiscal Year 2023 we provide $797.7\nbillion, $69.3 billion above the 2022 enacted level.\n We know that all Americans are struggling with higher prices--and\nthat includes our men and women in uniform--so we have prioritized\ninvesting in our most important national security asset, our service\nmembers and their families.\n This Defense bill puts people first--by including:\n A 4.6 percent pay raise for our service members;\n And an increase of 11 percent to the Basic Allowance for Housing, and\nthe Basic Allowance for Subsistence--which will help offset the cost of\nrising rent and food prices.\n I am very proud that this bill also invests in:\n Confronting the climate crisis--with more than $2 billion in clean\nenergy programs and funding to add resilience to DoD installations from\nthe impacts of climate change.\n Over $39 billion for Defense Health and medical research, including\nover $582 million for cancer research.\n And $1.6 billion in Environmental Restoration programs, including\nover $250 million for PFOS remediation and disposal research.\n This bill also continues our commitment to helping the Ukrainian\npeople defend their democracy against Russian aggression by providing\nrobust funding for the Ukraine Security Initiative and other NATO\nallies and partners in Europe.\n The time has come for Congress to finish our work, pass this omnibus,\nand fund the entire federal government.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1355-2", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "SUPPORTING THE CHEROKEE NATION'S 1835 TREATY OF NEW ECHOTA", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "ALLOTHER", "E1355", "E1355", "[{\"name\": \"Tom Cole\", \"role\": \"speaking\"}]", null, "168 Cong.

TOM COLE\n\n of oklahoma\n\n in the house of representatives\n\n Friday, December 23, 2022\n\n Mr. COLE. Madam Speaker, as a member of the Chickasaw Nation and co-\nchair of the Congressional Native American Caucus, I have always voiced\nmy support for the federal government to honor its treaty obligations.\n For far too long in our Nation's history, the federal government\naccumulated a sorry record of making promises to tribes and then\nbreaking those promises as soon as it was expedient to do so. Only in\nrecent years has that record started to improve.\n Last month the Rules Committee held a hearing on one of these treaty\nrights: a delegate to the House of Representatives as enumerated in the\nCherokee Nation's 1835 Treaty of New Echota. This hearing marked an\nimportant step in examining this specific treaty and understanding the\nlegal and procedural factors surrounding this issue.\n I'm very proud that we held this hearing and want to thank Chairman\nMcGovern for his leadership and the committee's willingness to\nhighlight tribal sovereignty.\n The conversations that we had in the Rules Committee that day are a\nstarting point for other committees of jurisdiction to study this\nmatter further and address some of the lingering questions surrounding\nthis. As this work continues, all such claims by tribes that possess\nthem should be considered and examined as well.\n\n ____________________"], ["CREC-2022-12-23-pt1-PgE1355-3", "2022-12-23", 117, 2, null, null, "RECOGNIZING THE 2022 EXCELLENCE IN SALES HONOREES PRESENTED BY THE INSTITUTE FOR EXCELLENCE IN SALES & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT", "HOUSE", "EXTENSIONS", "RECOGNIZING", "E1355", "E1355", "[{\"name\": \"Gerald E.
