This is the right decision & I’m glad the IRS is taking @SenateDems advice. Forcing Social Security recipients to file tax returns would have been an unnecessary delay. The American people need relief now. The sooner we can get this cash into their hands, the better. — PolitiTweet.org

With the Feed the Community Program, Edwardsville established a community campaign to support local businesses & residents in need. Even when we are social distancing, we can find ways to take care of each other and our communities. https://t.co/qVs8loXqfd — PolitiTweet.org

Great to see Quincy city council assign new duties, like assisting with Salvation Army and Meals on Wheels food delivery, to transit employees whose routes were shut down because of the #COVID19 pandemic. https://t.co/edsQQCQObP — PolitiTweet.org

It’s outrageous that Governors across the country have been forced to bid & compete over limited medical supplies. The President needs to take control of this situation. It’s up to him – and only him - to end this gross profiteering, which is unacceptable & un-American. https://t.co/pU15PqAne3 — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #CensusDay – a reminder of the importance of your participation. IL could lose up to $1,400 for every person under-counted, meaning less money for infrastructure, hospitals, & more. Make sure you’re counted &, if you can, respond online today: https://t.co/4g9jmkRE73 — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see that, with help from a federal grant, Mettawa-based CareFusion will now be producing life-saving ventilators for the Strategic National Stockpile. Hospitals across the country are in desperate need of these ventilators – I’m glad many of them will now come from IL. — PolitiTweet.org
