Unemployment Armageddon: 16.8 million Americans have lost their jobs in the last three weeks. That’s more than 1 out of 10 American workers! The key now is for states to get these applications processed FAST. The wolf is at the door for millions of Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

When any community sees negative health outcomes higher than their overall representation in the state, there's a big problem. I will continue working fiercely w/ local leaders & public health partners to fight the driving forces of this dangerous inequity https://t.co/80PORNcOZa — PolitiTweet.org

Another 6.6 million people filing for unemployment. The best way to slow this economic crisis is to keep people paid by their employer. That's why we needed a big small business support program in the first place, & why we need the administration to fix the botched roll-out ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

The color of your skin should not determine the quality of your care or your chances of survival in this pandemic. We must fight the inequities in our systems that continue to place black and brown lives in great peril. Headlines like this shouldn't exist. https://t.co/oPfP6RBIUO — PolitiTweet.org

"Fraud”?? Vote by mail has incredible integrity & blocks all kinds of polling place scams. As for “not good for R’s,” that’s bc GOP loves to block minorities, low-income Americans, tribes, & college students bc they demand govt by & for the PEOPLE instead of by & for the POWERFUL — PolitiTweet.org

The shortcomings in the current implementation of the Paycheck Protection Program are clear. I'm demanding fixes. Thank you to the many small business owners working with me and my team to fix this botched roll-out from the SBA. https://t.co/M1hjmFq3rs — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
The Senate passed a massive, bipartisan bill because we understood the imperative of the moment. The moment still stands, and the need still unmet. We need oversight & accountability to ensure all of our communities get the help they so desperately need. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley
SECOND: The paycheck protection program for small biz is being implemented haphazardly, w/out protections for businesses w/out established credit (esp. sole proprietors, very small businesses, and minority-owned companies) (3/) https://t.co/vZNyYJD6hE — PolitiTweet.org

FIRST: Trump has fired the head of the coronavirus aid oversight panel—a nonpartisan DoD inspector general whose job it was to make sure taxpayer dollars went where they’re supposed to, and not into slush funds for political allies. (2/) https://t.co/E77nCcsSi8 — PolitiTweet.org

@ConnieSchultz @SenSherrodBrown I’ve been opting for the blazer + cargo pants combo, much to my team’s dismay. Personally I think Sherrod and I are on to something. https://t.co/XzaqRmVKqW — PolitiTweet.org

Wisconsin’s GOP has blocked the ability of Wisconsin citizens to vote without risking their lives. Conclusion: they don’t value the fundamental right of their citizens to vote; and they choose partisan gain over their citizens’ health. https://t.co/ICXVkRV9hc — PolitiTweet.org

I've been hearing from small biz owners desperate to get funds Congress provided to keep companies afloat & paychecks flowing, but they’ve been stymied by rocky roll-out. SBA has to work w/ banks to make sure every biz that needs this money gets it ASAP. https://t.co/rHwFJQWYll — PolitiTweet.org

IMPORTANT: The deadline to apply for the rural broadband expansion program, ReConnect, has been extended to April 15. This pilot program brings connectivity to rural & tribal communities that desperately need access to reliable, high-speed internet. https://t.co/yuSPo8qI0l — PolitiTweet.org

I’m fighting to make sure teachers and school administrators have the resources they need to support and educate our kids during this crisis. The federal govt is using emergency funds to help support distance learning in Oregon and across the country. https://t.co/odVyPDJQ3X — PolitiTweet.org

The 700,000 Americans living in DC don’t have a voice in the Senate to fight for them & were short-changed more than $700 million in the emergency aid bill. No community should be left behind, which is why I’m joining this fight on behalf of DC residents: https://t.co/hgIHUbWQ38 https://t.co/ubqjGnaZI7 — PolitiTweet.org

One of the most critical needs in a crisis is getting accurate information out to the people who need it. Please support & engage local newsrooms. They fulfill a vital service in our communities, and I wouldn’t want to face a public emergency without them. https://t.co/mTK7C4Dn1Z — PolitiTweet.org
