We can and hold these families in our prayers. Thank you. Back live now on capitol hill where the House Appropriations committee is returning from its lunch break. They continue work on 2021 a spending bill. Live coverage here on cspan2. Mistaken at the best of times. They are unconscionable in the midst of a pandemic.

Let me say thank you again to chairman bishop, Ranking Member and their leadership and other areas of the bill. Their strong investments to ensure the continued availability and safety of the nation food supply as well as language designed to protect the health and safety of workers in our meatpacking plants and our poultry plants as well as the farmworkers who are out in the field every single day. I thank you very, very much that all of the attention youve paid

In terms of our discussing it it is relatively new. So this has been a problem for a long time. And i want to applaud those colleges that are taking the lead in trying to mitig
