"Today @SenDuckworth & I urged Pres. Trump to approve @GovPritzker's request for a major disaster declaration for Illinois due to the severity of this ongoing public health crisis. The pandemic's magnitude reaches beyond the capabilities of state & local governments."
"Beyond the State's ongoing response efforts, we need federal assistance to push back against the pandemic & the unprecedented economic burden it places on Illinoisans. Mr. President, Illinois needs a major disaster declaration."
