Breaking: Senate Democrats blocked action on the third economic stimulus bill related to #Coronavirus because guess what? It doesn’t give enough help to workers. Most of the exorbitant bill has goodies for big business. So when Trump calls out Dems,remember they are #ForThePeople

Senate Dems were right to vote against Mitch’s trillions-for-the-rich bill.

Governor Cuomo is briefing us. In his update he said he spoke to Trump again this morning, saying he is fully engaged in helping New York. He is sending the USS Comfort, a floating hospital to NYC immediately. It is has 1,000 rooms, including operating rooms. #coronavirus
Cuomo says we have to convert hospital facilities now so that current patients who need a lower level of care can be transferred opening beds for #coronavirus patients. He has mandated statewide school closures. He asks all businesses to work from home.
Cuomo roughly translates an Italian phrase “A person is a person who has their health. Everything else can be figured out later.” He says right now we have a public health crisis. Later we deal with the economic crisis. NY has the most cases in America. We are a dense place.

NYS Governor Cuomo holding a presser in the time of pandemic. He is ignoring Trump trolling him, focusing on what needs to be done. He says 1. We have to stop the spread by closing down social interactions. 2. Asking retired mds, rns to come back, + medical school students.
Cuomo says he is NOT quaranting NYC. He says New York leads the nation in #coronavirus cases. 10K people tested, 12 deaths, 19% of people with the virus have been hospitalized. He says collectively we are in a time of character test. What do you do when all around lose your head?
Cuomo says the state government can not meet this crisis without the help of the federal government, especially FEMA resources, the Army Corps of Engineers- they have capacity the state doesn’t have. Cuomo spoke with Trump this morning, he wants to work with Trump 100%.

My governor, Andrew Cuomo is holding a news conference now. He is suggesting we have to ramp up our hospital capacity by looking into building new hospitals, even though it takes yrs. China built 2 such #coronavirus hospitals in 2 weeks. They showed us how it can be done.
65 New Yorkers in ICU right now Gov. Cuomo says. He cautions is not to fall prey to fear. He says we will experience a wave that will overwhelm the health system. He wants automated testing companies to be able to test and he is asking the FDA to get out if the way.
He says there has to be an end to the state by state piecemeal approach to combatting #coronavirus. It can not be ad hoc, one place at a time. He wants a federal policy overall- he suggests SNAP be extended so one state is not pitted against another.

Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Richard Burr warned a small group of “well-connected constituents” three weeks ago to prepare for dire economic and societal effects of #coronavirus, according to a secret recording obtained by NPR.

npr.org/2020/03/19/818…
This was right around the time that Trump said we’d soon have zero cases.
So basically, Sen. Richard Burr gave a crucial early warning about #coronavirus — to a group of donors and invited guests at a luncheon organized by a membership-only group that promises “interaction w/ top leaders & staff from Congress, the administration, & the private sector.”
