Heartbreaking story of Mamadou Balde, the West African immigrant who served two tours as a Marine in Afghanistan. He survived the violence of war and succumbed to the violence of our streets. Our hearts go out to his family. https://t.co/hwPNiphIq3 — PolitiTweet.org

I am urging IL hospitals to consider taking advantage of the Medicare accelerated payments program we included in the CARES Act. It enables the federal govt to provide direct cash to hospitals, ensuring they can remain open, staffed, & supplied throughout this #COVID19 pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org
