Child care is in the news. Today, the CEO of Waffle House wasn’t sure it would be there for his workers as they come back & Stephanie Ruhl again talked about parents needing child care. Its so clear that child care keeps America working. Ask Congress for $50 billion more.

Working to exceed expectations and health standards, more Starbucks stores will gradually be welcoming customers beginning Monday. As we transition to this new phase, our goal is to open ~90% of stores by early June, providing experiences that are safe, familiar and convenient.

NY has given $116 billion more to the federal government than we received since 2015.

Kentucky *took* $148 billion more from the federal government than it gave.

Just give NY our money back, Senator McConnell.

I received this letter from a farmer in northeast Kansas. His wife is ill and he is aging.

He sent me 1 of 5 N95 masks he has from farming to pass on to a doctor or nurse in New York.

This is humanity at its best. I share his letter as inspiration.

Landmarks across the state are lit blue tonight in support of all the healthcare workers and all the essential personnel on the frontlines in our battle against #COVID19.

We thank them from the bottom of our hearts for all they do.

They are heroes. #LightItBlue #NewYorkTough

There has been an uptick in domestic violence incidents.

We want you to know: If you are in a dangerous domestic situation NYS will help you find a safe shelter.

You are not trapped just because of #Coronavirus.


If you need help, call 1-800-942-6906.

(Keep thinking: I’ve a Masters in Public Health; wrote my doctoral dissertation on global efforts to tackle AIDS pandemic; co-authored a book on global health governance; teach MPH courses on health systems & global health & I’m not qualified to lead a national #covid19 effort.)

NEW: @Apple has donated 1.9 million masks to the State of New York with more on the way.

We are so grateful to Apple for this much-needed gift of critical PPE supplies.

Thank you. Thank you.

@scv74980610 @NYGovCuomo This is absolutely true. Makes you wonder if we should discuss #CuomoForPresident once this is all over.

[Laura @LauraFieldsNYC]

This is what a leader looks like. Our country will always remember your words, compassion, push, fight and courage on behalf of all people. @NYGovCuomo

This day will be remembered.

The hospital capacity we add now will save lives.

God bless New York.

[Child Care Aware of America @ChildCareAware]

Congress has begun to acknowledge the role that child care plays but additional funding will be needed in the next #stimulus package if we are serious about providing #childcare for essential workers who are on the front lines of the #coronavirus pandemic. https://t.co/HBaFtoDKEl

To the nurses, the doctors, the EMTs, the firefighters, the police officers, the grocery store workers, the pharmacists and countless others...

New York thanks you.

In a typical week, our TCC receives 50,000 calls.

Between Monday and Thursday, we received 6 million calls.

700+ staff are manning the phone lines and hundreds more are being trained.

These workers are committed to helping every NYer who needs it, no matter how long it takes.

Facts are empowering.

Even when the facts are discouraging, not knowing the facts is worse.

I promise that I will continue to give New Yorkers all the facts, not selective facts.
