Politics 3 edited

Volume 167, No. 54, covering the 1st Session of the 117th Congress (2021 - 2022), was published by the Congressional Record.

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.

“MEASURE PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--H.J. RES. 17” mentioning Charles E. Schumer was published in the Senate section on page S1681 on March 23.

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:

MEASURE PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--H.J. RES. 17

Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, now, I understand that there is a joint resolution at the desk that is due for a second reading.

The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The leader is correct.

The clerk will read the joint resolution by title for the second time.

The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

A joint resolution (H.J. Res. 17) removing the deadline for the ratification of the equal rights amendment.

Mr. SCHUMER. In order to place the joint resolution on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I would object to further proceedings.

The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection having been heard, the joint resolution will be placed on the calendar
