Americans Shun Masks and Distancing as Covid Cases Surge During Reopening

Covid numbers are rising across the nation as states reopen business and large swaths of people are not wearing masks.

April Ryan speaks with Congress member Marcia Fudge (D-OH) on the missed opportunity to contain the virus, urges governors to embrace science and medicine to protect their people, and challenges President Trump to take strong leadership.

Millions are still unemployed and COVID-19 cases are surging again.

Stimulus checks have been spent.

Unemployment benefits are expiring.

Schools are in dire need of support to safely reopen.

Inaction is not an option—the Senate needs to take action on the #HeroesAct now.
