So that’s it, @VP Pence? You’re just going to close your eyes, plug your ears, & pat yourself on the back for the public health catastrophe under your watch? This is as pathetic as it is reckless. whitehouse.gov/articles/vice-…
Coronavirus keeps spreading across the country. Hundreds of Americans are still dying every day. And Dr. Fauci confirmed to me last month that another wave of coronavirus is “inevitable.” @VP Pence shouldn’t be celebrating – he should be making a plan.
As head of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, @VP Pence should be getting ready for the alarming possibility of another coronavirus wave on top of a bad flu season. I warned the Vice President to prepare last month. cnn.com/2020/05/21/hea…
The White House has failed to obtain & distribute medical supplies. Last week I urged @COVID_Oversight to investigate Jared Kushner's Project Air Bridge after we found delays, incompetence, confusion, & ethics concerns. washingtonpost.com/politics/senat…
We need more COVID-19 tests, more PPE, & a vaccine – & a federal government that can distribute them at scale. Which is why Trump & @VP Pence should be using the DPA now & championing my bill to publicly manufacture COVID-19 supplies. vox.com/2020/4/30/2124…
And if @VP Pence is bored, he could find out why @CDCgov still has huge gaps in its race & ethnicity data so we make sure our federal response is reaching Black & Brown communities hit hardest by this crisis. This shouldn’t wait until the August deadline. politico.com/news/2020/06/1…
The White House ignored the threat of COVID-19 until it was too late to stop it, left states without the equipment to fight it, & didn’t track its spread to contain it. Now they want to wave a magic wand & declare "Mission Accomplished."
Wake up & get to work, @VP Pence.
Wake up & get to work, @VP Pence.
