COVID-19 is now the third leading cause of death in the United States. We need a plan before it's too late.

With 5.59 million cases of US COVID-19 and 174,000 deaths, our country is facing unprecedented times. COVID-19 now trails only heart disease and cancer as the leading causes of death in the United States. And yet, universities and schools across the country are reopening, many without concrete plans or nearly enough personal protective equipment, and exposing students, teachers, parents and staff to the virus.

We can't move forward without a plan to reopen as safely as possible and tackle the economic crisis that has emanated from this pandemic. And above all else, we must protect Americans from this deadly disease -- too much is at stake.

We can start with a bold plan to tackle these issues and pass the HEROES Act. Call your Senators now and tell them to pass this life-saving bill.
