Summary

Page S6625 of the Senate section of the Congressional Record for September 22, 2021, under the heading Additional Cosponsors, in interleaved columns. Cosponsor additions include S. 1385, a bill to establish additional requirements for dealers, and S. 2047, a bill to ban the use of intentionally added perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substances in cosmetics. A speaker says the families of the victims of the Conception boat fire have filed claims, and another says the debt ceiling should not be a partisan issue.
