     PROVIDING FOR A CORRECTION IN THE ENROLLMENT OF H.J. RES. 100

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Under the previous order, the Senate will now 
proceed to consideration of H. Con. Res. 119, which the clerk will 
report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 119) providing for a 
     correction in the enrollment of H.J. Res. 100.

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Vermont.
  Mr. SANDERS. Mr. President, the American people are increasingly 
disgusted at the level of corporate greed that we see today. We have 
more income and wealth inequality in America now than we have had in 
100 years--billionaires getting richer, working people falling further 
and further behind.
  And there is no clearer example of corporate greed than what we see 
in the rail industry today.
  In the last year, that industry earned $21 billion in profits--
recordbreaking--and provided $25 billion in stock buybacks and 
dividends to their wealthy shareholders. And yet, today, in that 
industry, workers who do difficult and dangerous work have zero paid 
sick days. Zero. You get sick, you get a mark against you; couple of 
marks, you get fired. This cannot and must not happen in America in 
2022.
  This amendment simply says 7 paid sick days for workers in the rail 
industry, and I hope we can win it.
