Rosa DeLauro: “You cannot have it both ways. You cannot make a determination that you do not want to provide the money and then say, my…”

Circumventing Congress to divert money intended to help Americans who are exposed to HIV, influenza, tuberculosis, and other deadly diseases—and directing those funds to the Department of Defense—is beyond the pale.

Whether a community receives disaster relief should not depend on who they voted for in the last election.

I am glad that federal support is on its way through this SBA disaster declaration for the businesses, residents, and communities that were impacted by devastating flash floods last month.
