CBPP today released a statement ([link removed]) from Robert Greenstein, president, on the Senate’s passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act ([link removed]) . Below is a short preview of the full statement.
The bipartisan Senate COVID-19 package ([link removed]) includes important provisions that will help mitigate the sharp economic decline now starting. The House should pass it and then Congress should begin work on another bill to address critical missing pieces. Meeting this crisis will demand a sustained response by all of us — and Congress is no exception. Lawmakers will need to do substantially more in subsequent bills to address urgent needs in areas like health coverage and food assistance for struggling families ([link removed]) .
The Trump Administration will need to implement the new law faithfully, effectively, and swiftly. Very close scrutiny of the Administration’s implementation actions will be essential. We’ll have more to say ([link removed]) about key implementation issues in the days and weeks ahead.
