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.
“Recognition of the Majority Leader (Executive Session)” mentioning Charles E. Schumer was published in the Senate section on page S835 on Feb. 24.
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:
Recognition of the Majority Leader
The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The majority leader is recognized.
Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I thank my friend from Louisiana for his erudite remarks, much of which--at least the last part I heard--I agree with.
