CONGRESS/CORONAVIRUS/JOE BIDEN: “For the millions of Americans who have lost their jobs — or hours — and have had to claim unemployment, we have to deliver them immediate relief.

This includes affordable health care for millions of people who have lost it or are in danger of losing it. Child care, sick leave, family leave, so workers don’t have to choose between work and family. Relief from rent and student loans.

We need to support small businesses and entrepreneurs that form the backbone of our communities but are teetering on the edge. There’s an urgent need to fund states and cities, so they can keep frontline workers on the job…

Right now, the full Congress should come together and pass a robust package of [coronavirus] relief that addresses these urgent needs.”
