The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2670 and S. 2671” mentioning Brian Schatz was published in the Senate section on page S5990 on Aug. 5.
Of the 100 senators in 117th Congress, 24 percent were women, and 76 percent were men, according to the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress.
Senators' salaries are historically higher than the median US income.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2670 and S. 2671
Mr. SCHATZ. Mr. President, I understand that there are two bills at the desk, and I ask for their first reading en bloc.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the bills by title for the first time en bloc.
The legislative clerk read as follows:
A bill (S. 2670) to provide for redistricting reform, and for other purposes.
A bill (S. 2671) to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to provide for additional disclosure requirements for corporations, labor organizations, Super PACs and other entities, and for other purposes.
Mr. SCHATZ. I now ask for a second reading, and in order to place the bills on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I object to my own request.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection having been heard, the bills will be read for the second time on the next legislative day.
