Congressional Record, Senate — April 26, 2022, S2156

Summary

This is S2156 of the Congressional Record, Senate, April 26, 2022, with interleaved columns of introduced bills and statements. It begins with the end of a resolution on International Parental Child Abduction Month and a note that Mr. Menendez requested that Mr. Durbin be added as a cosponsor of S. Res. 585, honoring Madeleine K. Albright. Mr. Durbin introduces S. 4089, a bill to restore entitlement to educational assistance under the Veterans Rapid Retraining Assistance Program in cases of a closure of an educational institution or a disapproval of a program of education. With Mr. Braun, he also introduces S. 4090, the Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2022, which would require manufacturers to list dietary supplements with the Secretary, and the bill text is printed in the Record.
