  Mr. MULLIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of the CARES Act. We 
are in the middle of an unprecedented public health crisis and the 
American people need help.
  Over the past two weeks, I have had countless calls with 
constituents, and they have all said the same thing: they're hurting. 
Our small businesses, our farmers and ranchers, our teachers, our 
Tribal governments, our health care workers, and first responders on 
the front lines--we are all hurting right now.
  While this bill won't fix all their problems, it brings them some 
much-needed relief and confidence that the federal government is taking 
action to combat this crisis.
  In Oklahoma, we call it the Oklahoma Standard. Neighbors helping 
neighbors through hard times. Together, as a country, we will help our 
neighbors and get through this together.
  I support this bill and look forward to continuing to work with the 
Administration
