Shaheen Urges Senate GOP Leadership to Work With Bipartisan Group of Lawmakers to Pass COVID Relief

Today on the Senate floor, U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) called on Senate leadership to deliver overdue and urgently needed relief to struggling Granite Staters and Americans by acting on a new COVID-19 emergency relief framework she introduced last week with a bipartisan, bicameral group of lawmakers. In her remarks, Shaheen underscored the widespread consequences and impact of this crisis, highlighted the comprehensive assistance her emergency relief framework contains for small businesses, states and local communities, vaccine distribution efforts and more and urged lawmakers to put their differences aside, come together and move forward on this proposal.
