After a flawed distribution of funds provided by Congress, I called @SecAzar to push HHS to release critical funding—more than $739M—to hospitals in Illinois that are treating the most #COVID19 patients & addressing disparities. [link to release] https://t.co/96GnYcoAiO

.@SenateDems are announcing a plan today to help communities of color respond to the pandemic & build lasting wealth.

Record-breaking numbers of new #COVID19 infections remind us that President Trump was wrong in calling for early reopening’s, refusing to wear a mask, and stopping testing. Our nation is desperate for responsible leadership.

Proud of the efforts of so many hardworking Illinoisans in getting to 1 million statewide #COVID19 tests conducted. Testing is the key to re-opening our state & I'll continue working with @GovPritzker to make sure IL has all the federal resources it needs to conduct these tests.

Too many of these defrauded student borrowers are unable to participate in our economy or complete their education because of ruinous credit & worthless debt. Congress acting to expedite their discharges & ensure full relief is commonsense during this unprecedented crisis.

Our Coronavirus Emergency Borrower Defense Act will cover borrowers who have been defrauded according to findings by the Dept. of Education & State attorney general group applications, & who have been waiting years for the relief to which they are legally entitled.

Today, I am joining with @SenSherrodBrown, @RepMarkTakano, @SenWarren, & @RepJayapal to announce a plan to grant full student loan discharges to three specific emergency categories of defrauded student borrowers in the next #COVID19 relief package. https://t.co/V7MOfSfvu7

This is great news for the more than 138,000 Illinoisans with FFEL or private student loans. Thanks to @GovPritzker’s hard work, relief is on the way.

I supported the inclusion of FFEL, along with federal Direct student loans, in the relief provided by the CARES Act. https://t.co/TYM3ayDgzG
