A message from Elizabeth Warren:

"We face a public health crisis that threatens to bring another Great Depression. Families, hospitals, & small businesses need immediate aid. This is not the bill I wanted, but its immediate investments are vital. They are also insufficient. We will need to do more – and soon. But the price of action during a health crisis shouldn’t be a $450 billion Trump Administration fund that could be used to boost favored corporations. I fought for more oversight & restrictions on this fund. We got some limits, but they are short of what’s needed.

I won’t block vital aid but tomorrow we get back up and continue the fight. And I make you this promise: I will spend every waking moment watching the Trump Administration and do everything I can to hold it accountable for how it spends this $450 billion taxpayer fund."

Rue the day they refused to allow Elizabeth to run the agency she created. She has been a thorn in their side ever since!

I love her.

Even though she is no longer in the race, I am still VERY proud to have contributed to her campaign.

She will continue to fight for all of us, no matter where she is or what title she holds.

She's a person people can depend on. And she's brilliant, and her ethics are in the right place.
