My home State of New York has become the epicenter of this terrible pandemic. This bill brings financial support to increase the number of hospital beds and equip our brave doctors, nurses, EMTs, and other medical providers who are our front line of defense and should not be asked to risk their lives to save others. This crisis will pass and our economy will recover, but American families and workers who lost their jobs by the millions, through no fault of their own, desperately need this financial support now. This bill provides important grants and loans to small businesses which will be critical to our economic recovery. There is more for us to do, but this bill is an important first step to secure American families and workers.
