We remember Kenny Jeremiah, a pioneer of the soul and R&B “Sound of Philadelphia.” A founding member of The Soul Survivors, Kenny earned multiple gold records and performed around the world. He later broadcasted for many years out of WVLT Cruisin’ 92.1 FM. May God bless Kenny. https://t.co/IYQmBRqMml — PolitiTweet.org

We remember James Moeschen. For 23 years, he was a proud member of the @NJTRANSIT family, a bus operator and member of the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 825. We thank him for his years of commitment to NJ TRANSIT and the riders who put their trust in him. May God bless James. https://t.co/Cb7Epm0Xxn — PolitiTweet.org

We remember Carmela Scarnato. For 20 years, she was an Irvington High School cafeteria worker. Carmela was a member of the East Hanover Senior Citizen’s Club. Her cheerful smile, cooking, and exceptional baking will be missed by her family and friends. May God bless Carmela. https://t.co/vrmmC8O4JK — PolitiTweet.org

This is the year for a small Christmas with those in your immediate family bubble. If you insist on a big gathering this year, you’re taking a real risk that when next Christmas comes, there will be fewer loved ones gathered around your tree. — PolitiTweet.org

In the two weeks after Thanksgiving, we were averaging roughly 4,000 new cases per day. For the first three weeks of December we’re averaging nearly 4,800 daily cases – a 20% increase. Hospitalizations are 25% higher, ICU counts are up 30%, and ventilator use is up nearly 60%. — PolitiTweet.org

This is NOT THE YEAR for Christmas-as-usual or New Year’s Eve-as-usual. Please do not hold a large, indoor family Christmas gathering or indoor New Year’s Eve party. We cannot take the risk of these celebrations leading to a spike in new cases and hospitalizations. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy to see the House and Senate come to a #COVID19 relief agreement – but the job is not done. History will judge us harshly if we undershoot this moment. At $900 billion, we are undershooting. Our families, businesses, communities, and fellow states need more direct support. — PolitiTweet.org
