Hi there --  

We just wanted to send along a quick note to tell you what Harley's been doing to help Orange Countians combat the effects of COVID-19: 

1. Harley has connected individuals and private businesses that can manufacture or donate personal protective equipment to hospitals and first responders that are in dire need of this equipment. You can still sign up to manufacture or donate this gear here. 

2. He helped pass the $2.2 trillion coronavirus aid plan, which expands unemployment benefits, provides money for small businesses, gives payments to most Americans, offers relief for state and local governments, and aids hospitals affected by the crisis.

3. He's rallied around local Orange County nonprofits that are helping those affected by COVID-19. We encourage you to donate to these organizations, if you are able.

4. He's spoken with economic leaders across the globe about how to make sure Americans are kept on their feet, and he's used this work to help form legislation in Congress.

5. He's asked you to join our campaign in calling our elderly neighbors. We just had a phone bank to call our seniors earlier today. Keep watching out here for future phone banks.

6. He helped pass an emergency supplemental bill that allows Orange County businesses to access $7 billion in low-interest loans. If you are a small business owner, we encourage you to apply for these loans by emailing the Small Business Association customer service center.

7. He's sent around trusted sites for further guidance on the virus. For updates in California, we encourage you to use the California Department of Public Health's website.

8. He's used public platforms like Facebook and Twitter to share updates and general information about COVID-19.

This is a challenging time for all of us, but Harley is determined to be a source of information, help, and guidance while we face this virus. Please reach out if you have any questions about our response or if you have any feedback on what else our team could be doing. 

Stay safe!

-- Team Harley

 

Harley Rouda serves California's 48th district in Congress. In 2018, Harley defeated the 15-term incumbent Dana Rohrabacher in the very first political campaign of Harley's life. During his time in Congress, he's embraced common sense and values to tackle climate change, address deteriorating infrastructure, confront homelessness, and protect Social Security and Medicare. In 2020, Harley will be facing one of the toughest re-election fights in the entire country, so he's depending on the support of grassroots individuals. If you want to support Harley's re-election, you can donate here. If you'd like to no longer receive emails from his campaign, you can unsubscribe.
