Politician
Sept. 10, 2020
Tweet - "The Republican narrative that Americans were disincentivized to return to work while receiving $600 in enhanced UI couldn't be further from the truth."
Rep. Steny Hoyer
Sept. 10, 2020
Tweet - "Senate Republicans' #COVID19 relief plan does not include aid for renters & homeowners, hungry families, the census, safe elections, hospitals & health clinics, and state & local governments. It is a purely symbolic, political effort."

Sept. 10, 2020
Tweet - "It is unacceptable that, over a month after Republicans allowed emergency unemployment assistance to expire, nearly 1 in 5 Americans are still waiting to get back to work. This is the wrong direction."

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Sept. 8, 2020
Tweet - "Even Sen. McConnell has repeatedly stressed that 20 GOP Senators intend to do nothing in the face of this crisis. Democrats want to work on legislation that will meet the urgent needs of Americans but Republicans continue to move in the wrong direction."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Sept. 8, 2020
Tweet - "The Senate GOP's emaciated bill has no money for rental or nutrition assistance, the census, safe elections It goes backwards on helping state & local governments As the pain from COVID gets bigger--the GOP thinks smaller Democrats will not stop fighting for people and families"
Sen. Chuck Schumer

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Sept. 8, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Sept. 4, 2020
