mr. murphy: i would like to say some of this from personal experience.'m probably the only member in this chamber that this fell under because i'm still actively practicing, still on staff at an active medical center. i've practiced at this institution for 30 years. i don't know how many calls i got from nurses, people on the floor taking care of covid patients, pleading me to not be forced to take the vaccine. let me say if there were any individuals who knew what they were talking about, it was these nurses. they were taking care of covid patients. i've said since day one, i've been very pro-vaccine. very pro-vaccine. but since day one this is not a decision that should be made between a government and a citizen but one made between a doctor and a patient. it is a medication. there are risks and benefits that go with this. sadly enough we lost a lot of nurses, way too many, because they chose not to get this. they were young, of fertility age and they were fearful. i'm going to speak to my colleague's comment about exemptions. you're correct. there wer

murphy federal building and united states courthouse. thank you and i yield back the remainder of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from arizona, mr. grijalva, for five minutes. mr. grijalva: thank you very much, madam chair. today and tomorrow, house republicans are bringing the strategic production response act to the floor, a bill that forces the administration to open up even more public lands and waters to drilling anytime the president releases oils from the reserve in order to lower consumer gas prices. now, what house republicans are doing is effectively ending the president's authority to lower consumer gas prices while handing over our public lands and waters to big oil. you might wonder why republicans are pushing legislation that so clearly hurts the american people and consumers. well, to put it plainly, they're simply crossing another item off the wish list of big oil. it's a simple payback to the political campaign donors and this legislation is not needed. it is fabricated. it is based on a lie. time after time, year after year the fossil fuel industry lobbies to control and lock up more of our public lands and wat
