ONE MORE THING TO BE THANKFUL FOR
(Mr. MARSHALL asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute.)
Mr. MARSHALL. Mr. Speaker, bells should be ringing today, and I just
don't mean on Wall Street. Across the entire Nation, bells should be
ringing.
Today, as I have been promising since early summer, not one but two
vaccines will ask the FDA for emergency use authorization.
Congratulations to President Trump. Congratulations to Vice President
Pence and his Warp Speed team. Congratulations to Pfizer and BioNTech.
You did it. American innovation has persevered again.
We have three million doses right now, enough to vaccinate every
nursing home patient in America. We will have 50 million doses by
December being distributed, as well.
Thanks to almighty God who inspired the scientists who led to the
discovery.
Indeed, bells will be ringing across America this Thanksgiving. We
have one more thing to be thankful for.
