Much, everybody. So, welcome to our Cabinet Meeting. Every member of my cabinet is working tirelessly to defeat the invisible enemy that should have never happened to our country, should have never happened to the world. It should have been stopped at the source. They decided not to do that. We opened our country and economy. It is happening very rapidly and it is happening interestingly what numbers are going down. You look at florida, the state of florida, good job. Others, at georgia, some are doing extremely well, far beyond what people thought. And the numbers are going down. It is really terrific. In our drive to crush the virus, the u. S. Has completed nearly 12 million tests, and that number today is almost 14 million. Nobody is close. Germany would be second with approximately 10 million less than us. South korea is doing very well.

You struggle to think why did we hear so much woe is me the other side says we heard it because 13 is still unfathomable, but its certainly more fathomable than 20 so, i dont know its good. It is good. The president r
86,000 people in the United States and that includes over 900 incredible and great coloradans, my home state. We certainly mourn with those families who have lost loved ones and well keep fighting for a path forward as we get through this together. I want to commend in the strongest terms possible our frontline workers, whether its been our First Responders, our health care professionals, or those that have allowed us to continue to enjoy a safe and secure food supply, people in essential businesses that each and every day dont complain but go to work to help make sure that our communities can get back to work. And the list of heroes in our communities, those who have i have goin so much, goes on and on and on.

Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States. [applause] pres. Trump thahank you very much, everybody. So, welcome to our Cabinet Meeting. Every member of my cabinet is working tirelessly to defeat the invisible enemy that should have never happened to our country, should have never happened to the world. It is a disgrace. It could have been stopped at the source but they decided not to do that. We are going to safely reopen our country and our economy and it is happening very rapidly. Interestinglyg when numbers are actually going down. The state of florida, great job. You look at georgia, others, some are doing extremely well, far beyond what people thought. And the numbers are going down. The numbers we have been talking about for the last two months are going down. So it is really terrific. In our drive to crush the virus, the u. S.

Legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on the bill under consideration. The speaker pro tempore without objection. Mr. Neal madam speaker, i yield myself such time as i may consume. The speaker pro tempore the gentleman is recognized. Mr. Neal first, thank you. We are here today in these very trying and unprecedented times to act on an emergency interim funding package that i am pleased has strong bipartisan support. But we did not arrive here without significant efforts by our democratic colleagues. When we began negotiation was the senate, we were presented with an insufficient proposal that did not address the Public Health crisis that has now claimed the lives of nearly 48,000 americans.
