The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“ADJOURNMENT UNTIL FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2021, AT 1:30 P.M.” mentioning Benjamin L. Cardin was published in the Senate section on page S6431 on Aug. 31.
Of the 100 senators in 117th Congress, 24 percent were women, and 76 percent were men, according to the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress.
Senators' salaries are historically higher than the median US income.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
