                     REMEMBERING ITALIA MARIE KELLY

  Mr. GRASSLEY. Mr. President, on Sunday, a young Iowan from Davenport 
set out to exercise her constitutional rights by peacefully protesting 
the disturbing death of George Floyd. But when agitators turned things 
violent, Italia Marie Kelly decided it was time to go. As she was 
trying to leave, she was struck and killed by a bullet. She was only 
22.
  Italia was protesting against violence, but she couldn't escape it.
  We must stand up against violence, racism and abuses by law 
enforcement. We must also stand up against those who hijack peaceful 
protests. More death and destruction is no way to honor the legacies of 
those lost.
