Pleased to see @Illinois_Alma make good use of CARES Act funding by creating the Students FIRST: COVID-19 Emergency Fund to offset students’ financial setbacks brought on by the #COVID19 pandemic. https://t.co/wVZVcWaElC — PolitiTweet.org

#COVID19 has caused market disruptions that hurt family hog and cattle farmers across Illinois. Joining @SenDuckworth calling on @USDA to provide immediate & direct financial assistant to family pork & beef producers who are struggling. https://t.co/KgD5R8Qau8 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
These environmental standards are intended to protect the very same communities who are being disproportionately affected by #COVID19 cases & deaths. This is a bad decision for the health and safety of the American people. https://t.co/pH0XM6clg7 — PolitiTweet.org

.@FEMA assistance is key to easing the burden on hospitals treating #COVID19 patients. Yesterday, I asked @femaregion5 Admin. Joseph to keep me informed on the progress his agency is making at McCormick Place in Chicago & in working with the state leaders to identify unmet needs. — PolitiTweet.org

Tip for Pres Trump: listen to real doctors. Clinical trials warn us to go slow on chloroquine. 1/4 of Brazilian patients developed serious heart issues. Despite President’s promotion of “Hydroxy,” real doctors remain unconvinced of the drug’s safety & effectiveness for #COVID19. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm leading a group of 17 Senators in calling for robust federal COBRA subsidies to be included in any new #COVID19 legislation. We cannot allow individuals who lose their job as a result of #COVID19 to lose their employer-sponsored health coverage as well.https://t.co/kIkH6pkoX7 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
More than 1/3 recently unemployed Americans are in danger of losing their employer health plan, or face an avg. family monthly premium of $1,700. The $600/week boost in unemployment benefits all but disappears for these folks. It's time for the federal govt to cover COBRA costs. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
That’s why I led my colleagues in urging @HHSgov to alter the criteria to better address the needs of hospitals treating children, Medicaid recipients, the uninsured, & our rural & underserved communities. https://t.co/Kk02lW4ZDU — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
We fought to provide $100B in the CARES Act for our heroic front-line hospitals & health providers to have the resources & equipment they need to serve communities in the face of unprecedented strains. But the first round of funding was inadequate for many essential providers. — PolitiTweet.org

Billions flowing in @SBAgov loans to businesses struggling to survive/reopen. Funding exhausted this morning. Critical program. But the next bill must require more transparency and accountability to ensure banks prioritize the most vulnerable small businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

Senators on Pres’ bipartisan task force on re-opening economy had our 1st call. I pressed Pres on: ✅Importance of testing ✅Safety net for small biz & jobless ✅Extending work auths for DACA & TPS ✅“Manhattan Project” for widespread testing to get folks healthy & back to work — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
.@BillGates is right. Halting funding for the @WHO during a world health crisis is “as dangerous as it sounds.” Save the politics for another day. Fight the virus with every weapon in the arsenal, including the WHO. https://t.co/ah6NKBY3V6 — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
Turning the corner? Last month #COVID19 cases were doubling every 2-3 days in Chicago. Now they are doubling every twelve days. Kudos to health care workers, @GovPritzker, @IDPH, and @chicagosmayor. https://t.co/P2ygmQ6BBH — PolitiTweet.org

In the U.S., African American women are still 2.5x more likely than white women to die as a result of pregnancy. That is unacceptable. We can & must do more to protect women of color & their babies. I remain committed to doing everything I can to protect black maternal health. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin
This year, Black Maternal Health Week comes at a time when devastating racial disparities in our nation's health care system are on full display, amplified by the outsized impact that #COVID19 is having on African American communities in Illinois & across the country. #BMHW20 https://t.co/mLW25SJiNO — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, the US is only testing 150,000 people a day. Experts say we need to be testing at least 500,000 people a day to control this outbreak - it is the only way we will ever be able to end our nationwide shelter-in-place. — PolitiTweet.org
