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.
“MEASURES PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--S. 461 AND S.J. RES. 9” mentioning Charles E. Schumer was published in the Senate section on page S909 on March 1.
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:
MEASURES PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--S. 461 AND S.J. RES. 9
Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, I understand there are two measures at the desk due for a second reading en bloc.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The leader is correct.
The clerk will read the bills by title en bloc for the second time.
The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:
A bill (S. 461) to create a point of order against legislation modifying the number of Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States.
A joint resolution (S.J. Res. 9) proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to require that the Supreme Court of the United States be composed of nine justices.
Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, in order to place the bills on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I would object to further proceedings en bloc.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection being heard, the bills will be placed on the calendar.
Mr. SCHUMER. I yield the floor.
