Good morning. As the COVID-19 pandemic takes a toll on life in America, our team at Future Majority is tracking the latest updates: 

A win for liberty:

Yesterday, the Supreme Court handed down a momentous ruling, prohibiting discrimination in the workplace based on sexual orientation and gender identity. It is a major win for equality and freedom in the United States.

The FDA halted Trump’s go-to coronavirus drug:

The FDA revoked its emergency use authorization for two antimalarial drugs, hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine for the treatment of COVID-19. Trump repeatedly touted the drug, unable to cite evidence of its efficacy. The FDA let it be known that the drug showed no effectiveness in its treatment or prevention of the disease.

The battleground map is shrinking for Trump:

President Trump is on shaky ground in a few key battleground states according to recent polling.

In Michigan, he is trailing Biden by as many as 16 points, per a new EPIC-MRA poll:

  • Trump: 39%
  • Biden: 55%

A PPP poll has Biden up big in New Mexico:

  • Trump: 39%
  • Biden: 53%

And a new Des Moines Register poll shows a very tight race in Iowa, a state Trump won by 10 points:

  • Trump: 44%
  • Biden: 43%
