Friends --
We hope this email finds you and your loved ones safe and healthy. Our team is committed to sending these weekly updates to keep folks around Virginia up to date with what Mark Warner is focused on in the Senate.
Here's what Mark is working on right now:
- This week, Mark introduced the bipartisan GET CARES Act with Sen. Tim Scott. This bill encourages Americans to safely resume preventative care and treatment. Since the coronavirus pandemic started, routine health care and cancer screenings have fallen by 68 percent nationally. Regular checkups can help with early detection of preventable diseases.

- Last week, on a call with military families, Mark discussed the fact that almost one-fifth of active military families in Virginia are food insecure. Mark is committed to removing barriers to accessing healthy and affordable food for our military families, including widening eligibility for military families to receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.

- The cost of 4.1 million children's prescriptions would be reduced under Mark and Sen. Cory Booker's new bill, the Fair Drug Prices for Kids Act. This legislation will lower prescription drug costs for states, making them more affordable for the children who need them.

- Mark raised concerns about delayed mail delivery in Virginia. In a letter to Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, Warner urged DeJoy to "rescind any policy changes that are contributing to delays in mail delivery." The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is a critical service for millions of Americans who rely on the mail for prescriptions, bills, and letters from loved ones. Mark will continue to work to make sure USPS has the funding needed to continue its service.

- Mark worked with his colleagues across the aisle to urge Senate leaders for long-term relief for the millions of Americans who struggle with student loan debt. Under the CARES Act, more than 8 million people were ineligible to receive the six months of interest-free relief on their student loans.
