Political Quotes

On the recordMarch 27, 2020
Throughout our history, the American people have mobilized in extraordinary and unprecedented ways in times of national crisis, but the enemy we face today has required a different response. To defeat COVID-19, we have asked most Americans to do what comes so unnaturally to them: stay home. We have asked businesses to shutter, employees to stop going to work, and churches to close. Entire industries have lost their consumer base overnight. The American people didn't cause this crisis but are responding the way they always do: by being smart, tough, and compassionate. We owe it to them to give them this support.
