These kids are amazing, and, uh, thank God there's not as many people to visit. All the people I'm seeing today that are being treated, er, and four of them amputees, are people who, uh, in fact, uh, are retired, and -- but they're, but they're real heroes. And then we're gonna go see the vaccination distribution.

I support passing COVID relief with support from Republicans if we can get it, but the COVID relief has to pass. There's no ifs, ands, or buts. Thank you.
