Today, U.S. Senator Jim Risch (R-Idaho) issued the following statement upon President Trump signing the CARES Act to battle COVID-19 into law:

"I thank President Trump for signing the CARES Act into law. This has been a thoroughly bipartisan effort, with the Senate passing this legislation by a vote of 96-0, the House agreeing to it by unanimous consent two days later, and President Trump signing this bill within hours," said Risch.
