                          CONCERNS OF THE DAY

  (Ms. JACKSON LEE asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Ms. JACKSON LEE. Mr. Speaker, the American people expect corrective 
actions by this body and the other body, and so I rise today to 
reinforce the importance of the translators' notes as it relates to the 
meeting between the President of the United States and President Putin.
  If there is anything more important for the American people, it is to 
know whether we are safe, whether our military is safe, and whether we 
are secure.
  Secondarily, I am so disturbed that there is some thought of 
providing our public servants--Ambassador McFaul's name was mentioned 
as being an exchange target, if you will, for President Putin to play 
with.

  I will be introducing legislation to protect all our ambassadors from 
foreign nations that may desire to undermine their leadership here in 
the United States.
  Also, I am intending to announce next week my introduction of a 
temporary protective status to help those Central Americans and others 
who this administration has precipitously taken away their TPS and 
jeopardized them in 2018.
  Finally, Mr. Speaker, we must reunite the children, and we must do it 
now.
