This blatant disregard for the hard-working people who make up the backbone of our country must stop! Just as thoughts and prayers have never prevented a shooting, simply thanking those who make up our essential workforce isn’t good enough.
We need a Senator who will fight for hazard pay, paid time off, and priority testing to our essential workforce.
We need a Senator who will demand a livable wage for everyone, especially since we only deem our farmers, fast-food and retail workers as essential when it’s convenient.
We need a Senator who will champion Medicare for All, so nobody fears going to the doctor because of the medical bill. Furthermore, we need a Senator who will demand free COVID-19 related health care services NOW!
