Millions are struggling to pay rent today as the coronavirus crushes incomes. We know families were already stressed over the high cost of housing, & it’s only going to get worse. That’s why we need far greater investments in affordable housing in the next coronavirus aid bill. — PolitiTweet.org

Spoke w/ @SEIU @OregonGovBrown @RepBonamici & others about unconscionable reality @realDonaldTrump has put frontline workers in. Instead of leaving them to risk their lives w/ makeshift half-measures, he MUST use the Defense Production Act to meet the urgent need for PPE. https://t.co/ZLvsKV5dcU — PolitiTweet.org

Journalists are critical to keeping us informed & holding our leaders accountable—more than ever during a crisis. It is simply wrong for Trump to attack reporters for asking tough questions re:evidence for his claims. THANKS to @yamiche for doing her job to the benefit of us all! — PolitiTweet.org
