March 27, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
March 27, 2020
Tweet - "Cruise industry often registers abroad to avoid US taxes, environmental regs, worker rights Now seems they want a taxpayer-funded bailout?! No--We rebuffed GOP attempts to bailout companies registered abroad Cruise companies registered or organized off our shores won't qualify"

March 24, 2020

Sen. Chuck Schumer
March 22, 2020
Tweet - "I just spoke in the Senate about how we're making progress on a bill. The McConnell-GOP bill includes huge bailouts without protections for people and workers and without accountability. It has shortfalls of money for our hospitals & medical workers. This needs to be changed."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
March 22, 2020
Tweet - "We voted no on the McConnell-GOP bill because among other problems it includes huge bailouts without protections for people and workers and without accountability, and because it shortchanges our hospitals and healthcare workers who need our help. These changes need to be made."

Sen. Chuck Schumer
March 20, 2020
Tweet - "This is one of the worst crises we've faced. We must act quickly, strongly to help people and workers. Senator McConnell's bill is not pro-worker at all. It puts corporations ahead of people. Democrats are united in fighting to put public health, people, and #WorkersFirst."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
March 20, 2020
Tweet - "We must stand up for all displaced workers (and we will). But let's get something straight. The major cruise lines sail under foreign flags to avoid paying the U.S. corporate tax rate. And now some want the American taxpayer to bail them out? Get. Lost."
