Mr. Speaker, I rise to discuss the coronavirus. I want to reassure folks that since we first learned about this virus, our government has been very proactive in its response. The President took charge and assembled a task force, headed by the Vice President, that brought together the best and the brightest doctors, scientists, and health experts that our country has to offer. The President also took the crucial step of implementing a travel ban on China to slow down the spread of the outbreak within our borders. While our government is appropriately handling the spread of the coronavirus, our citizens can help as well. Mr. Speaker, I urge everyone to go to cdc.gov, follow the latest developments, and learn about easy ways that you can avoid getting sick. America must always be ahead of the game on viral threats like these, and I am proud to say that our leaders are doing a great job. {time} 1030 Essential Support Faith-Based Organizations Provide for Communities
