We must ensure that minority-owned & underbanked businesses have the support they need to carry through this time of economic uncertainty. I will continue fighting for improvements to PPP, including transparency & accountability, so that vulnerable businesses are not left behind. — PolitiTweet.org

Spoke today with leaders of Illinois Community Development Financial Institutions about how best to reach minority-owned & underserved businesses affected by the #COVID19 pandemic, & the barriers that these businesses are facing in accessing the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). — PolitiTweet.org

That’s why @SenDuckworth, @RepCheri, and I called on the federal Bureau of Prisons to stop transferring inmates from facilities with #COVID19 outbreaks until they are able to test inmates prior to transfer. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ChuckGrassley & I urge @JusticeOIG to assess if the BOP is taking adequate steps to protect the health of staff & inmates, including properly implementing its authority under the #FirstStepAct to transfer at-risk inmates to home confinement. Read more: https://t.co/5tPucHyAdq — PolitiTweet.org

During a pandemic, we must protect the health & safety of every individual, including those living & working in the tight quarters of prisons. I have serious concerns that BOP is not taking enough preventative measures to adequately protect BOP staff & inmates from #COVID19. — PolitiTweet.org

Sorry, Dr. Birx. We saw the look on your face. What the President said was not a joke, a question, sarcasm, or as you said on FOX, the way he thinks out loud. It was a dangerous idea which has been roundly condemned by every responsible health expert. — PolitiTweet.org

But Birx also defended Trump, saying in a Fox News clip that he was "digesting" new information out loud. https://t.co/kuRniyIGlW

This is a single day record for IL. As we continue to ramp up our testing capabilities, the # of those with confirmed #COVID19 will likely increase - but if we continue social distancing & #StayHome, we'll beat this virus and finally start getting back to normal. #AllInIllinois — PolitiTweet.org

We celebrated our 50th #EarthDay earlier this week & we'll celebrate the 50th anniversary of the #CleanAirAct later this year. #COVID19 has shown just how dangerous air pollution can be-there's never been a better time to strengthen clean air protections & prepare for our future. — PolitiTweet.org
