"People who were exposed to toxic fuel from this leak should know what kind of impact that might have on their long-term health. Tracking health data will give doctors, public health experts, and those affected by the leak a better understanding of what that kind of exposure can do to someone's health."

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

"In 2019, we passed a law to give our military leaders the tools they need to detect and get rid of child pornography on DoD's network, go after offenders, and protect innocent and vulnerable children, but almost four years later, DoD has been maddeningly slow to implement the law. My provision will compel the Department of Defense to implement this law immediately. We cannot afford to let another day, another month, or another four years go by without addressing this issue. The stakes are too high."
