Time in a bipartisan way. And so i want to yield to the distinguished chair because the bill that the Senate Passed is identical to our instructions to the budget as we said to them. Get behind the microphone. Yeah. The speaker is right. We got the same amount in instructions back from the senate that we passed, so we can pass it with a simple vote today and intend to. Then the committees will draft the legislation that actually creates the assignment of those dollars, and well bring that back to the floor in just a couple of weeks. And, you know, we only lost two democrats in the vote. They just voted for 1. 9 trillion. So we dont anticipate a problem. Madam speaker, do you have any concerns that a package this large approaching 2 trillion might sacrifice progressive policies Going Forward . Absolutely not.

Officer sicknick, he lies in state in the capitol dome.

Honor, ra a reminder of the insurrection that caused his death on the 6th of january. The United States senators whose lives and staffers lives he died protecting is being asked to show bravery, as well. House Impeachment Managers and the ex president s legal team today presented their briefs in next weeks Impeachment Trial and the insurrection at the heart of that trial is not ancient history. They will be weighing decisions with the seat of American Democracy and their workplace still showing the scars from an attack unlike any weve seen in our lives. The managers case is straightforward. They plan to use video of the president s rally leading up to this and comments by his violent supporters to show he instigated the attack and plan to rebut the notion a president cannot be tried after leaving office. As for the defense, well, their brief begins with a mistake, a pretty sloppy one at the top of page one as you see there, the lawyers misspelled United States. Those are the expresiden

A congressional tribute will be held later this morning. And today, House Managers will lay out their case against former President Trump for inciting that insurrection. They argue that mr. Trump is singularly responsible for the deadly capitol siege. They want him barred from ever seeking Public Office again. Mr. Trumps lawyers claim their clients speech was protected by the First Amendment and a Senate Conviction would be unconstitutional. This morning, President Biden weighs in on this.
