to vermont's justice system. you've participated in the vermont supreme court's on the road series which i wish they'd had when i was involved. you've held hearings in communities across vermont to increase transparency. how were these kind of things important to the way that judges carry out their-- carry out their duties? that will be my last question and i apologize to ms. sung, i strongly support her nomination, go ahead. >> and thank you, senator. i think it's important, as judges, that we find ways that are appropriate to engage in the broader community, the broader legal community and the broader community at large, and those are examples of ways in which our court as a whole and myself in my individual committee work have tried to be a part of the vermont legal community and make the systemic change that we don't make in our adjudicating role when we decide the legal cases. >> thank you very much. the next republican senator by order of arrival, senator cotton. >> thank you. justice robinson, i think i kn

she currently serves on the vermont supreme court.le in private practice, justice robinson did a fair bit of civil rights work, and as i said before, so did judge michael parks and judge stephen, who president trump nominated to the same second circuit. ..if they haven't thought enough about the job to have a judicial philosophy. justice robinson has served as a state court judge for several years so i hope we can have a productive discussion about the philosophy. we hope justice robinson support the second nominee and days nominated on the ninth circuit currently sitting in the seat is well respected and said that some of her favorite cases involving interpreting statutes because it is like a puzzle she likes working out and how different parts of the law fit together because of that and she takes an interest in many different areas of the law focusing intensely on waiver law and working closely with labor leaders. that may be why demand justice is excited about her nomination and her strongest supporters are in san francisco and was

vermont is an aging state. the nation is aging, and whether people have severe disabilities or whether they are just getting old, we have millions of people who would prefer to stay in their own homes, get care in their homes rather than be forced into a nursing home. this bill in an unprecedented way will put a significant amount of money into a home health care and pay those workers a living wage. [applause] now as many of you know, the united states the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care to all people as a human right. we are the only one. we pay by far the highest amount of money per person for health care, somewhere around $10,000, and get 90 million people are uninsured or underinsured. we paid the highest price is in the world for prescription drugs, and up to 60,000 people a year died because they do not get to a doctor on time. my own view, i am speaking only for myself, my own view is that health care is a human rights, not a -- a human right, not a privilege, that we need

i can tell you in vermont, unbelievably, in vermont the quality of our air deteriorated because of smoke from oregon 3,000 miles away. italy recently experienced the hottest day ever. in europe, july was the hottest month ever recorded, and drought throughout the world is reducing food production. and today, literally today, on the 16th anniversary of hurricane katrina, hurricane ida is now slamming i represented the louisiana coastline with winds of 150 miles per hour, and the forecast is that over a foot of rain is going to drop today in new orleans. and our hopes and prayers for the people of louisiana is that they get through this as best they can. now hurricanes and extreme weather disturbances are nothing new. they have always taken place. but what is new is the frequency and the severity of these extreme weather disturbances, and nobody now can doubt that that is caused by climate change. i know there are some people out there who say this is really terrible, the drought, the fires, the floods, really bad. next year it will become better. this is once in a hundred years. that is n

at rutgers university, the university of vermont, the university of virginia, and uc berkeley all have 97% of their students vaccinated. here is what we know. vaccination requirements work. they get more americans vaccinated, which is the path out of the pandemic, plain and simple. private and public sectors implement and vaccination requirements have seen their vaccination rates increase by double digits in just a few weeks. early adoption of vaccination requirements from private employers, health care systems, and the military have already reached vaccination rates of about 90%, well ahead of the deadlines they have set. 90% vaccination rates. that is really strong progress, and these organizations continue to see more employees vaccinated each day. vaccination requirements are not only our path out of the pandemic, but they accelerate our economic recovery. by increasing the number of workers that are vaccinated, vaccination requirements will keep workplaces safe and help curb the spread of the virus into communities. that means more americans getting vaccinated. it means safer scho

the presiding officer: the senator from vermont. mr. leahy: i've listened to this debate. i've heard my two dear friends from louisiana speak about the disaster recovery, and i support disaster recovery for them, but i would just point out on the proposal of the republican leader, there would be no funds in the treasury to pay for disaster recovery or for writing a check to israel for an iron dome because it doesn't raise the debt limit. and the substitute offered by my friend -- and he is my dear friend -- the vice chairman of the appropriations committee, senator shelby, does not solve the problem in front of us. it doesn't address the looming debt crisis facing our nation. it ignores that that exists. perhaps my colleagues on the other side of the aisle want to wash their hands of this. they can. much of that debt was incurred under a republican president and under a republican-controlled senate. and debt racked up by irresponsible tax cuts championed by the republican party for the wealthiest of americans. and yet debt also occurred in a bipartisan fashion that dealed
