For the past two months, Ohioans have made countless sacrifices and stepped up to help each other in many, many ways. They flattened the curve, and now they want to get back to work smartly and safely. In the same vein, Americans need their representatives here in this body to be back to work, too. We should be working on legislative solutions that mark the first phase, phase one, of the recovery and reopening of the United States. Much of this partisan bill has nothing to do with COVID-19 or the current crisis facing so many Americans. This bill, sadly, paints a vision for this Nation that does not match our great history. The situation that we find ourselves in requires the best from all of us. This bill fails that test. Let's make this our finest hour. Show what we can do, not what we can't do. I oppose this bill.
