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.
“SUBMISSION OF CONCURRENT AND SENATE RESOLUTIONS” mentioning the U.S. Dept of State was published in the Senate section on pages S2324-S2325 on May 7, 2020.
The State Department is responsibly for international relations with a budget of more than $50 billion. Tenure at the State Dept. is increasingly tenuous and it's seen as an extension of the President's will, ambitions and flaws.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
