Ms. CLARK of Massachusetts. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of the CARES Act.
Americans are facing a public health crisis that is an unprecedented threat to the health and safety of our communities. Hospitals are struggling to care for our communities and get the protective equipment they need. The pandemic has brought schools, businesses, and whole States to a standstill, including my home State of Massachusetts.
Americans are calling for help, and today we will vote to bring them relief and offer them a lifeline, but it won't be the end of our support. To those on the front lines--healthcare workers, cashiers, childcare providers, truck drivers, cleaners, and postal workers--and to all Americans, we say: We see you. We appreciate and are grateful for your sacrifice, and we will continue to fight for the people.
