Can you believe it, y'all? Mitch McConnell and his right-hand man, Sen. John Cornyn, have sent the Senate into recess. They’re taking a break while working families all over Texas deal with:
-
COVID-19 cases ravaging our communities
-
The highest uninsured rate in the entire country
-
Sky-high unemployment
-
The loss of expanded unemployment insurance
-
Schools rushing to reopen even as nearly 100,000 children tested positive for COVID-19 at the end of July
… and more. But frankly, even if the Senate were in session, chances are low that Sen. Cornyn and his DC bosses would do the right thing. Before he let them expire, Sen. Cornyn called expanded unemployment insurance for people who lost their jobs due to the pandemic “a mistake.”
Texans need a senator who will get to work for our families, not bail out special interests and then take a break in the middle of a crisis. Pitch in to help MJ defeat Sen. Cornyn and fight for all Texans in the Senate:
Thanks,
