"This partisan coronavirus stimulus package neglected hospitals, community health centers, health care workers, & first responders; it neglected state & local gov'ts, teachers, cafeteria workers, & bus drivers; it neglected small businesses, non-profits, & working class families."

"After two emergency bills were enacted with strong, bipartisan support, we were all hoping this stimulus package would be the same. But this bill, written by Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, broke down when he refused to make it a bipartisan negotiation."

"Now is not the time for partisanship. Time is of the essence. The Senate must work together -- on a bipartisan basis -- to help stop this public health and economic crisis. American lives are at stake."
