and saying in this country childcare is something that we ll make sure you have options available for you. it s affordable, and you don t have to wait in line to get it. senator while i have you, i want to ask you about that video call on tuesday between president biden and vladimir putin. we just heard president biden a few months ago, basically saying the united states is not acting unilaterally at this point should russia decide to invade ukraine further. are you encouraged by what you heard so far with regards to ukraine? i m very glad the president made it clear that if he takes greszive actions there will be economic consequences and we will be working to address this. i thought it was extremely important that he made that loud and clear.
