                    REPUBLICANS PUT THEMSELVES FIRST

  (Ms. FUDGE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FUDGE. Madam Speaker, on Friday, we lost an honorable and decent 
woman, Justice Ginsburg, a person who changed the world.
  But for all her successes, those who are bent on choosing her 
successor have no decency. They have no honor. They have no integrity. 
It is a shame that they did not learn the lessons of Justice Ginsburg, 
which were decency and honesty and integrity, one who fought for 
others.
  All they want to do is fight for themselves. They want to take away 
our healthcare. They don't want to help people who are in trouble. They 
don't care about people who are unemployed. All they want to do is win.
  But what do they win? What have they won for this Nation? They just 
want to benefit themselves.
  We are not here for ourselves. We are here for the people who sent us 
here. We are here to represent the people.
  When you lose sight of that, what a shame, what an absolute shame. 
They are a disgrace to this Nation.
