As of this morning, more than 9,900 Alabamians have been infected with COVID-19. So as we ease restrictions under the new safer-at-home order starting today, I encourage folks to stay home when they can, continue social distancing & wear a face mask in public. #ALTogether — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll save them the money: we need to expand Medicaid, improve rural health access, and implement practices that close the health gap for women of color. We need to focus on policies that strengthen our families and protect women and children. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, I called on the Navy Secretary nominee to commit to increasing safety measures for service members and civilians on our military bases.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month & I want to say again that it’s ok to not be ok. Your mental and emotional health are just as important as your physical health—especially during this pandemic.

Folks, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again—we’re not in the clear yet. We *MUST* ramp up our testing capacity. What we do today will make a difference in all of our lives in the future. https://t.co/VnHwQjLAjn — PolitiTweet.org

If the lawsuit to strike down the ACA is successful, we lose: ❌Protections for 130M Americans w/ pre-existing conditions ❌Bans on lifetime coverage caps ❌Support for rural hospitals This would be devastating to Americans’ health & safety—especially now. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

In a pandemic, businesses shouldn’t have to cut through a maze of red tape to access relief designed to help them stay afloat and keep workers on the payroll. We need to pass the Paycheck Security Program to help keep workers on the payrolls without all the hurdles they face now. https://t.co/PdqyfWhVeL — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, alongside a bipartisan group of colleagues, I urged President Trump to do away with limits on financial aid for cattlemen, dairy producers & farmers who have been hard hit by COVID-19. We need to ensure their needs are met as well during these difficult times. — PolitiTweet.org
