Congressman COVID

Even as their own members turn out to be superspreaders, and a historic economic contraction takes place, Mitch McConnell is holding COVID aid hostage to protect corporations' rights to act like Louie Gohmert. That's sick.

Tell Congress: "Stop holding economic aid hostage so that employers can go around acting like Rep. Louie "Congressman COVID" Gohmert. The rent is due today, and instead of help, 30 million Americans are seeing their unemployment cut by $600 per week!" ADD YOUR NAME "And just as uh, Congressman COVID—Congressman Louie Gohmert says—" –House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) Friend, For once, Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy has a point. Rep. Louie Gohmert should carry the name Congressman COVID for the rest of his life. Gohmert reportedly berated his own staff members who wore masks while he required them to report to the Capitol. No wonder he tested positive. It's up to us to make him infamous. A Congressman, like a president, who doesn't wear a mask in public gives license to the anti-maskers we all see in our own communities--which keeps the rest of us trapped in quarantine. Even as their own members turn out to be superspreaders, and a historic economic contraction takes place, Mitch McConnell is holding COVID aid hostage to protect corporations' rights to act like Louie Gohmert. That's sick. Tell Congress: Stop holding unemployment hostage to force people to contract COVID! If Congressman COVID gets his way, the COVID pandemic isn't going away any time soon. America has the worst pandemic response in the world because conspiracy freaks like Gohmert tell Americans to do the OPPOSITE of what public health professionals are fighting for. Add your name to SHAME Politicians like Louie Gohmert who side with the virus against the American people! Thank you. Mike Phelan Progress America DONATE NOW Sent via ActionNetwork.org.
