Another woman who...

Thank you Madame Speaker.

The lighted memorial to all those we lost due to Covid...

must be a PERMANENT memorial. I agree with Brian Williams (MSNBC) who first brought up the concept after the ceremony. Pres. Joe said, "To heal we must remember. It's hard sometimes to remember, but that's how we heal." We have a permanent memorial to all my brothers and sisters who never came home from Vietnam. This country needs to remember and honor all those we lost to Covid.

Ironic how if the traitors who stormed the nation's capital....

(who admire Putin and his third world country of Russia) would have stormed the Kremlin, would be dead right now. Moreover, they're probably too ignorant and brainwashed to understand that. They have relinquished ALL rights as american citizens and do not belong in this country.
Committing traitorous domestic insurgency is unacceptable and a crime that has a price to be paid by those who commit it.
I am a Marine Corp veteran of Vietnam and many of my brothers and sisters gave their lives for the freedoms we now have in this country. If punishment is not executed, it is an insult to my fallen brothers and sisters and all those before them who have paid the price in defending our democracy.
