As COVID-19 continues to spread, it’s tragic that hospitals are experiencing a shortage of lifesaving personal protective equipment (PPE) and ventilators. Without PPE, doctors and nurses are at risk of becoming infected themselves. And without ventilators, patients will suffer and some will die. Veterans Affairs hospitals don’t have adequate PPE for all employees. If we don’t act, heroes who served our country will die because of Trump’s negligence. That’s why President Trump must IMMEDIATELY operationalize the Defense Production Act to compel American manufacturers to produce more ventilators and personal protective equipment. Add your name to join me in demanding that President Trump move forward with the Defense Production Act. Lives are on the line and there can be no delay! Health care workers all over the country are being asked to reuse protective equipment and stretch ventilators by hooking up two patients to a single machine. The bottom line is this: Continued shortages of PPE, medical equipment and testing will lead to more tragic, avoidable deaths. Lives are at stake, and President Trump has failed to act. Sign here to demand he use the full power of the Defense Production Act to produce lifesaving medical equipment and ensure effective nationwide testing. We’re all in this together, Debbie
