Friend – from the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis, Donald Trump has delivered an utterly incompetent and morally bankrupt response. He has used a raging pandemic to divide our nation. He has watched more than 147,003 Americans die while he enables a dangerous defiance of science.
That's why, in the face of this President's catastrophic failure of leadership, I remain as committed as ever to making sure you and your loved ones have the support you need to overcome this crisis. But to keep your priorities at the center of my work, I need to hear from you directly:
After spreading nothing but misinformation and dangerous lies about the threats of COVID-19, Donald Trump is concealing CDC data – undoubtedly to cover up the exploding case numbers. And if that wasn't bad enough, he is also attempting to block desperately needed funding for contact tracing and testing that will be crucial to our efforts to stop the spread of the virus.
The President's destructive response to the pandemic has been truly appalling. But at the same time, we've seen people rise up across the country to meet this difficult moment – from governors to mayors to everyday American heroes on the front lines. These are the people who richly deserve our thanks for their efforts – and who prove that we can make it through this crisis as long as we work together.
So as I continue to battle in the Senate for your safety and hold Trump accountable for his pathetic response to this crisis, it couldn't be more important to know what's foremost on your mind right now. Will you fill out this quick survey before midnight to make sure your priorities are my priorities?
Thanks so much for taking the time. It's such a huge help.
Dick
