                CORONAVIRUS NOT REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRATIC

  (Ms. KUSTER of New Hampshire asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute.)
  Ms. KUSTER of New Hampshire. Madam Speaker, today, the House of
Representatives will consider the Families First Coronavirus Response
Act, critical legislation to expand paid emergency leave for American
workers, to ensure free coronavirus testing, to bolster unemployment
insurance for furloughed workers, and to strengthen our safety net for
workers and students experiencing food insecurity due to closures.
  Democrats and Republicans must continue to advance this emergency
legislation to protect the health and economic security of the American
people.
  The coronavirus does not choose Republican or Democrat, and the
American people are looking to this Chamber for swift and decisive
leadership.
  Madam Speaker, I thank our frontline nurses, doctors, physicians,
public health officials, and first responders for their tireless and
courageous efforts to keep Granite Staters safe. They are heroes to all
of us, and they are bringing needed comfort to those who have been
impacted by this public health crisis.
