Tweet - "Republicans will stand firm & pursue liability protections for Americans at the front line of the #COVID response/reopening. This is about protecting doctors, hospitals, schools, mom and pop restaurants -- people who are living in fear of being frivolously sued."

Tweet - "House Dems unveiled a $3 trillion #COVID19 bill. $3 TRILLION -- all borrowed on the backs of our children & grandchildren. We haven't yet seen all the effects of the $2.4 trillion we already provided. Once that's been fully allocated, we will have a better sense if more is needed."

Tweet - "House Dems' bill includes tons of non-#COVID19 items. I keep hearing this bill branded as "CARES 2." They're trying to tie it to GOP's bipartisan #CARESACT to disguise their bad policy. It's a stretch to even call this a Phase IV approach since it has no chance of becoming law."
