Gig workers, independent contractors, and small business owners are all eligible to apply for unemployment benefits during the pandemic thanks to the new federal law. @RI_DLT has more details: https://t.co/uSkZfl2A89 — PolitiTweet.org

The CARES Act that Congress passed to address the pandemic includes a boost for unemployment benefits. According to @RI_DLT, Rhode Islanders who’ve filed for unemployment will likely start seeing that additional $600/week automatically added to their benefit this week. — PolitiTweet.org

In which the supposed “free market” party supports a foreign cartel that drives up prices for Americans. Why? Republicans owned and controlled by the fossil fuel industry. https://t.co/TdGz2QGzOs — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans included a completely unrelated $195 billion dollar tax giveaway, almost all for millionaires & billionaires, in the last #COVID19 relief package. Americans deserve better. Demand Answers! https://t.co/jaF1lgH8o0 — PolitiTweet.org

"Media attack President Trump over COVID-19 response," translated back into English from FOXese, is: "Media accurately report Trump’s massively botched COVID-19 response." Glad to help. — PolitiTweet.org

We actually used to have a way to connect politicians to scientists for just this type of situation. The Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) served Congress by providing expertise on emerging science and technology issues before it was eliminated by a Republican stunt in 1995. — PolitiTweet.org

We need science to tell us how #COVID19 spreads, who is most at risk, how to protect ourselves, and ultimately how to eradicate it. That requires the White House and Congress to actually… consult scientists. https://t.co/oJsy46aIcs — PolitiTweet.org

Another good article: science denial isn’t just a fringe of flat-earther nut cases, it’s a political and public relations strategy funded by industries that want to weaken government regulation and science that shows hazards of their products. https://t.co/7en8mWDw4P — PolitiTweet.org

This political stunt by Ldr. McConnell comes as people are relying on Congress to get things done in a bipartisan way. I agree that small businesses need more relief. Other urgent needs must be addressed at the same time: emergency $ for hospitals, states, & food assistance. — PolitiTweet.org
