The bipartisan bill, introduced by Senators Chris Coons (D-DE) and Roger Wicker (R-MS) and cosponsored by Senators Cory Booker (D-NJ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Jack Reed (D-RI), Marco Rubio (R-FL), Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), Kamala Harris (D-CA), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI.), John Cornyn (R-TX), Angus King (I-ME), and Susan Collins (R-ME), would provide a comprehensive, locally focused, national service strategy to help communities, including ours, respond to and recover from the COVID- 19 pandemic. As our own cities and the country as a whole, contemplate the future, we know that the challenges to recovery – for our grieving families, shuttered schools and churches, and halted economy – are manifold. And as you know, the road to normalcy will require more than economic stimulus, even historic levels of it. We should call on Americans across the country to step up and contribute through service.
