Hi,

The American people need a well-coordinated, whole-of-government, fully-funded response to keep them safe from the coronavirus pandemic. That's why last night, House Democrats introduced the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, which includes:

- Free coronavirus testing for everyone who needs a test, including the uninsured;
- Paid emergency leave with both 14 days of paid sick leave and up to three months of paid family and medical leave;
- Enhanced Unemployment Insurance, a first step that will extend protections to furloughed workers;
- Strengthened food security initiatives, including SNAP, student meals, seniors nutrition and food banks;
- Clear protections for frontline workers, including health care workers and other workers who are in contact with those who have been exposed or are responsible for cleaning at-risk places;
- Increased federal funds for Medicaid, as states face increased costs.

It's imperative to the health of this country that both the House and Senate to pass this important bill. Learn more about the Families First Coronavirus Response Act and why we need this legislation now:

This is a national crisis. Congress must ensure the government has the resources needed to combat this deadly virus and keep Americans safe. We're focussing on people's health, not on political games right now. Republicans need to do the same.

Talk soon,
