“I want to put pressure on countries that buy energy from Russia. Trade with the U.S. is important to those countries. If they keep buying Russian energy, it should cost them. We have a bill to make it cost them. If countries buy less from Russia, we should reward them. The goal is to get countries to buy less from Russia. I want to work with others to make sure our plan does that.”

“I want some Senators to speak before the votes. I listed who can speak and for how long.”

“I want America to build more ships. China has many ships. Some Chinese ships carry weapons. I think that is bad. Chinese ships might bring weapons to America. That could be dangerous for America. I want a new law to build more American ships. The law will give tax breaks and other help to build ships. The law will take away some rules that make ships expensive. The law will train more people to work on ships. We need more American ships and less Chinese ships. The last President had a plan like this. I want Congress to pass this bill now.”

“A woman from my state has died. She made puppets. She was on TV. She did some work for the USO during the Korean War. She was a substitute teacher for a while. She volunteered at her church. She did some other artist work. She was married a couple times. She is dead now. I want you to remember her name.”

“I want to thank Joni Ernst for her bill. I want my bill to pass too. My bill will help businesses. My bill will stop fraud. Fraud is bad. The government should stop fraud. The government should be careful with taxpayer money. That is responsible.”
