Today, Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-WA) released the following statement after voting to support the Senate amendment to H.R. 748, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Stability Act (CARES Act):

Viruses come and go, but the people of Central Washington are resilient. I voted to support the CARES Act to ensure our rural communities remain strong through this crisis and into the future."
