                       National Foster Care Month

  Mr. GRASSLEY. Mr. President, May has been recognized as National 
Foster Care Month for over 20 years to bring awareness to the 
challenges that foster youth face.
  Through my work on the Senate Caucus on Foster Youth, I have had the 
opportunity to hear firsthand what children in foster care need. They 
need love, support, safety, and permanency. They need a family. I 
salute all those who dedicate their time and resources to help these 
kids.
  In moving forward, I will continue to work to find better solutions 
and to secure better outcomes for youth in foster care.
  Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent to speak for an additional 1 
minute as in morning business.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
