When I announced my campaign one year ago today, I said we were in a battle for the soul of the nation.
One year later, that is as true as it has ever been. I believe we can and we will emerge from this crisis a stronger, better, and fairer nation. Together, as one America.
New York Gov. Cuomo said he is issuing an executive order that all people in the state must wear a mask or mouth and nose covering in public. Follow live updates: https://t.co/tnoIBB1ccj

The medical professionals on the front lines of this crisis are American heroes — risking their lives in order to save others. We owe them more than we could ever repay, but we can start by ensuring they have the protective equipment they need to stay safe. #NationalDoctorsDay
I’m calling on the Federal Government to nationalize the medical supply chain.
The Federal Government should immediately use the Defense Production Act to order companies to make gowns, masks and gloves.
Currently, states are competing against other states for supplies.
Today I was shocked to learn that schools may have custodial closets full of N95 masks not currently in use (mine did). Is there a way they can be transported to hospitals for healthcare professionals that need them?! @DOEChancellor@NYCMayor@NYGovCuomo
Please let’s all join together to protect those on the front lines. We do not work in silos; we can fight this together. @NYGovCuomo@NYCMayor@DOEChancellor

We have some good news to report:
The State just passed the emergency COVID-19 paid sick leave bill.
If you have to self-quarantine and cannot go to work, you deserve paid sick leave coverage. This bill will make that a reality for working New Yorkers.
So society’s *real* key workers have just been revealed.
Not the bankers. Not the traders. Not the elite hedge fund managers.
It’s the nurses. The doctors. The delivery drivers. The carers. The porters. The teachers. The shelf stackers. The check out staff.
