Quotes: About the RECOMPLETE ACT: The COVID-19 crisis is exacerbating existing inequities, especially for communities that were already struggling. That’s why @ChrisCoons, @HerreraBeutler & I introduced a bold plan to make a long-term federal investment & create jobs in places that are consistently left behind.
