Extensions of Remarks on the CARES Act — Congressional Record, March 31, 2020
Summary
Page E339 of the Extensions of Remarks section of the Congressional Record for March 31, 2020. One Member says every Member's duty was to read the bill, evaluate it and vote, and concludes that if given the chance he would vote against it, which is his view. He says Speaker Pelosi should have convened the House on Monday to allow a full debate, and argues provisions put Congress's thumb on the scale in favor of labor. A list of names appears, and Mr. Kustoff of Tennessee, in a statement dated Friday, March 27, 2020, rises in support of The CARES Act and its relief for health workers.
