Partisanship on those changes. That starts tonight at 8 00 p. M. Eastern. Enjoy American History tv this week and every weekend on cspan3. Causes my mind to go back to the truth we learned at home, beliefs would shake my paths and their guidance of their children. Love of god, fairness in human relations, independence, and responsibility concern for the welfare of others and conviction that each free individual could, through his own efforts, achieve a full life. It is a firm duty of each of our free citizens to make the cause of his country before the comforts of himself. We must be ready to dare all for our country, for history does not trust the freedom to the weak, we must be willing individually and as a nation to accept whatever sacrifices may be required of us. A people that values its privileges above its principles. These men came here to storm these beaches, not to gain anything for ourselves, but just to preserve freedom, systems of selfgovernment in the world. Many thousand
Advantage, we hope the republican majority on the Homeland Security committee has not become a sympathetic audience and a potential Entrance Point to foreign influenced campaigns wittingly or unwittingly. What a disastrous and disgraceful fate of affairs. The senate should pass this resolution today. I yield the floor to my colleague from oregon. Wyden wyden mr. President. Mr. Wyden mr. President. The presiding officer the senator for oregon. Mr. Wyden mr. President , i rise in support for this resolution, the democratic leader. We are calling for an end to a horribl horribly flawed investigation, attempts to poison it with disinformation and to sew distrust are an established matter of fact. And it is especially troubling because for periods over the last year, two Senate Committees have conducted an investigation involving the ukraine, former Vice President biden and his son hunter. Homeland security and Government Affairs committee, led by our colleague from wisconsin, chairman john
P. P. E. And other medical supplies so they can adhere to the safety guidelines and provide a clean and safe environment. But it doesnt stop there. Im also working to assist our lowerincome families, those who rely on the Child Care Development block grants and those who simply need access to clean diapers. Just a couple of weeks ago i was in davenport, iowa, where i got to take part in a Diaper Distribution with the hiney heroes of the qadhafi at the quad city. The National Diaper bank donated 25,000 diapers to this important diaper bank. We know that during this pandemic the diaper supply has run short and ive teamed up with democratic senator chris murphy on this effort to include additional assistance for our diaper banks. Covid19 has also created challenges for our farmers. These hardworking folks are facing new challenges while working around the clock to make sure americans have adequate access to food and fuel. I was visiting with some farmers at the bloomfield livestock market
That should be the basic ingredients of tax reform. First it should be fair to taxpayers of this country. The tax bill enacted two years ago was certainly not fair. It failed in that test. As i pointed out, who benefited . Well, large corporations benefited dramatically by this bill, but they said look, well pass it on to the workers. But did they pass it on to the workers . In 2018, 1. 1 trillion were used to repurchase stock to make the wealthiest even wealthier and did not go to the benefit of the workers.

Secondly, a tax reform bill should be fiscally responsible. After all, we have taxes in order to raise revenue, in order to pay for services so we dont borrow from the future for our children and grandchildren to pay for what were doing today. The administration said that this would be a fiscally responsible
Folks are among the very best that america has to offer. They are people who often time from a very young age as children arrived in this country, have only known the United States as their home, some who only speak the english language, all who have felt the fear of living in limbo for many years, who felt the joy in 2012 of being able to come out of the shadows when president obama put daca into effect. And now again feel the fear of deportation looming. We are here today to speak the truth about who these people are. And i want to say thank you to the Daca Recipients that are here today. It was amazing to be out on the Supreme Court steps and see people from every walk of life, not just the dreamers and their family members or the immigration advocates who have been doing such great work for many years, but also out in strong force members of the American Business community who came out to speak the truth about how valuable our dreamers are to this country. It earlier this year the
