                            Georgia Shooting

  Mrs. MURRAY. Madam President, I would like to start by taking a 
moment to address the awful violence we saw in Georgia yesterday.
  Everyone, especially elected officials, needs to not just speak out 
but to act against this deadly display of hate.
  To the victims and their families and to the Asian-American and 
Pacific-Islander community in Washington State and nationwide, my heart 
is with you not just today but going forward. I will continue sending a 
strong message that hate against you must stop, and I will keep working 
to ensure your safety in light of the terrible surge in hate crimes we 
have seen in our State and across the country.
