“This is the wrong example for the country. To date, at least one senator, eight Capitol Police officers and 11 workers ... have tested positive for the virus. As Dr. Monahan convinced leaders in the House, returning the Senate for non-essential business is not worth the risk” — PolitiTweet.org

Feinstein asks McConnell “reconsider his plan to reconvene the Senate. He would bring 100 senators and many more staff members and reporters into close proximity while Washington itself remains under a stay-at-home order. There is no way to do this without increased risk” — PolitiTweet.org

@vtg2 @marianne_levine I asked McConnell about this ... “I would question the credibility of any economist who thought that borrowing $2.8 trillion was a great idea except in a pandemic,” McConnell said in an interview. “If we borrow any more it will include reforms.” — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, the pandemic still swept into U.S. despite Cotton's warnings to POTUS + travel ban Former Sen. Heitkamp: “It just drives me frickin’ crazy. What I’m saying is, did you write a note to yourself in your basement? Who cares if you were right. What did you do about it?” — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell says they want to do infrastructure, but it's unrelated to coronavirus. "I just don't believe we should be adding to the national debt ... I just don't think that's the path" "We're going to pass a more modest infrastructure bill in the Senate" — PolitiTweet.org
