Delawareans, please join me for my Tele-Town Hall for a discussion about how #COVID19 has affected you and your family and our small businesses. I’ll be joined by state officials to talk about the recently enacted #CARESAct and the federal relief that is available for our state. https://t.co/bdhCWCcz7r

For our small state, the @USS_Delaware is more than a @USNavy submarine. It is a testament to the duty, dedication and sacrifices of the brave men and women, and those who — for more than 200 years — served their country in defense of the people of Delaware and our great nation.
I salute the sailors serving aboard the #USSDelaware and their loved ones who support them in their mission. We are thrilled to officially welcome you all to the First State’s military family! Today, even from afar, the First State is proud. #USSDelaware https://t.co/gJwfe81T7b
When I learned the @USS_Delaware was initially postponed due to health concerns related to #COVID19, I caught up with @Nick_Ciolino to talk about how this vessel came to bear the “Delaware” moniker. Listen here: https://t.co/yJyE26TQaK
In November 2019, it was my great honor to be the key note speaker at the Change of Command ceremony for the @USS_Delaware in Norfolk, Virginia! https://t.co/ApkK4eCQsz
Back in October 2018, I attended the christening ceremony of the @USS_Delaware with @DrBiden and @JohnCarneyDE. We honored a new generation of sailors preparing to take the @USS_Delaware through its sea trials and protect our democracy. https://t.co/Y4l0tCcxoa
But first, a little history. Did you know that Delaware’s naval history dates back to the Revolutionary War? The Delaware Bay, just off the coast of Lewes, served as the staging ground for the Continental Navy’s first marine mission in 1776.
Still, the first @USNavy ship to be named after the First State since 1923 — the @USS_Delaware — has been commissioned today for active service and will soon begin to patrol the seas in defense of our nation out of the Port of Wilmington. That is worth celebrating.

Thanks to the hard work of @ChuckSchumer and @SenateDems, the #COVID19 relief package Congress passed last week includes accountability and oversight measures to safeguard taxpayers. Corporations cannot use the money they receive for CEO pay raises or stock buybacks.
The wealth of one person should not come above the health of another. We have a moral obligation to ensure that everyone – including those with the least among us – can be tested. That's why I co-signed a bill to do just that so Americans have access to the care they need.

That means reaching to private manufacturers with a comprehensive plan and asking them to help produce the critical medical supplies states desperately need right now. America needs the President to start meeting this moment with the sense of urgency it deserves.
