Ms. SPANBERGER. Mr. Speaker, I will be voting for this bill for the children who are forgoing their school and for the millions of children for whom that means that they are losing the stability and the nutritional support that comes with it.

I will be voting for this bill for my family members and my friends and constituents who have lost their jobs in the past 2 weeks because of this pandemic.

I will be voting for this bill so that we may deliver support to the small business owners and restaurateurs throughout central Virginia who have closed their doors in order to stop this pandemic and keep their neighbors safe.

I will be voting for this bill for the healthcare workers in my district who are risking their lives to make our communities safer.

I am grateful to the sanitation workers, the mail carriers, the UPS workers, the FedEx workers, the grocery store workers, and those who work in our nursing homes and facilities across our districts and across our country. I thank them for adding a bit of stability to our country during this extremely difficult time.
