Did you see Ami's note? NewDems are working hard to make sure that when we reopen the economy, we do it the right way. Ensuring the safety of our communities is key to getting America back to work.Â
So we want to know, what are you seeing in your community? And what do you think we should do to safely reopen the economy?
We simply can't afford to do this the wrong way. Take our survey and let us know what you think we must do to get the country up and running safely.Â

---------------------------------
If you follow the headlines, you're probably well aware that President Trump has a key question on his mind: "When do we reopen the country."
As a physican and a Member of Congress, take it from me: The President is asking the wrong question.
Instead of "when" and "how fast," more leaders in the Administration should be asking "how."
We know there's a lot of work ahead if we're going to reopen the country safely. But here's the good news: We also know what it takes to get there. A few key criteria we have to meet include:
*
A
testing
and
tracing
regime
that
arms
the
medical
community
with
the
data
and
insights
we
need
to
effectively
respond.
*
A
serolgic
testing
program
that
sheds
some
light
on
who
might
have
immunity.
*
Sufficient
supplies
of
PPE
not
just
for
doctors,
but
also
high-density
services
like
schools,
grocery
stores,
and
daycare
centers.
*
Treatments
that
can
mitigate
the
worst
effects
of
the
virus
and
help
patients
recover.
Of course, we also have to continue developing a vaccine if we're ever going to truly protect against the virus.
All of this requires leadership from the Administration that respects the input of America's scientific and medical community. That means taking seriously recommentations like maintaining social distancing and wearing a mask in public.
We're going to get through this. America can beat this disease, and Congress has already committed tremendous resources to get the job done, but we can't let up.
Thank you for being part of Team NewDem. Stay safe, wear a mask, and as always, be well.
