Political Quotes

“Recent news has indicated that an individual in the United States has been designated with the coronavirus who has not been assessed to have traveled in any of the countries that have been listed for travel advisories and has not been listed as having had any of the normal processes or patterns of getting this particular virus. With that in mind, I think it is extremely important that Congress plays a major role, in addition to its role of discerning the kind of funding. With that in mind, we will be organizing a coronavirus task force that is bipartisan and that will assess how we reach effectively, as Members of Congress, all of our constituents who are dependent on information that we receive: the waiters and waitresses, the traveling public, the aviation persons, the public hospital providers, all of those persons in our districts. Mr. Speaker, I encourage my colleagues to join the task force. Let us work together because it is a crisis. We are in a position to help the American people in the best way that we can, and that is with information. ____________________”
