Hello Friends --
I hope you and your loved ones are healthy, safe, and well.
Without an influx of federal funding to shore up revenue losses due to COVID-19, our first responders, our teachers, cops, and essential workers could face layoffs when they are needed most.
Vital services provided by our state and local governments could face huge cuts.
That's why I voted earlier this month in the House to pass the bipartisan Heroes Act, which provides more than $1 trillion in critically needed funding for state and local governments.
In upstate New York, we continue to leverage our campaign to be a force for good during this unprecedented time.
We've donated directly to charities,
purchased food for a local hospital, and called our neighbors -- not for politics -- but to check in on them and make sure they are okay.
I'm also proud of the work we've done to
assist farmers during this time. Farmers can now apply for COVID-19 disaster assistance through the SBA.
There is still much more work ahead.
So, I am committed to not only fighting to help sustain our communities during the COVID-19 crisis, but also to ensuring they all have the opportunity to thrive again.
Thank you for your love and support.
Stay safe,
Antonio
