                    Thanking the Senator from Oregon

  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, let me thank my friend from Oregon for 
his outstanding remarks. He has been a leader in keeping the internet 
open and free and making sure that this new highway system, in effect, 
is as free as our old highway system, or the existing highway system, 
to let the big guy and the little guy compete on equal terms. That is 
all we want, and Mr. Pai doesn't seem to get that.
  There is a whole round of appointees from this administration who 
simply side with big corporations no matter what, and this is an 
example of just that.
  So I thank my friend from Oregon for his remarks.
  Mr. President, I have three topics this morning--briefly, healthcare, 
then, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and, finally, taxes.
