Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2020 Remarks at the Owens And Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2020 Remarks at the Owens and Minor, Incorporated, Distribution Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania May 14, 2020 The President. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Oh, that social distancing. Look at you people all spread out, 6 feet. That's pretty impressive. But we like it the old way a little bit better, don't we? Audience members. Yeah! The President. And we'll be back. We'll be back to that soon, I think. I really believe it. And we were received by thousands and thousands of people coming in. And they came in from all over and all the way from the airport to here. It was really something special. So it was really great. Sit down. Let's have a little fun, and we'll talk, and then we'll talk about the business and the great job that you're doing. And we really appreciate you being here. Thank you very much. I'm honored. In the heart of the Lehigh Valley—now, just so you know, I have a brother who was a great brother. Passed away a long time ago. Fred. And he went to Lehigh University. I've been up here many times actually. And I gave a commencement address years ago at Lehigh University. It's a great school. But whenever I think of this area, I think about my brother. But I really am honored to be with the extraordinary workers of Allentown, Pennsylvania. Every day, you prove that American workers are truly the best in the world, and that's what they are. And we're showing that now. We're starting to make more and more product in the United States. I was with some of your representatives. Associates, they call themselves. I don't know—I assume if they're associates, you're all making the same money. I hope so. [Laughter] They call themselves associates. Sounds nice, right? More and more I see that. But it's good. And they're good, and they're doing a great job, frankly. But they're talking about, so much of the product now is made in the U.S.A., whereas in the past, it wasn't. It wasn't. But they were talking about 90 percent—80 to 90 percent is made—of what you distribute is now made in the U.S.A., and that's taken a long while for us to get it. I started that right from the beginning. It's probably one of the major reasons that I'm here. It's called "America first." We want America first. We love the world. We want America first. Today we're announcing a groundbreaking initiative to replenish and modernize our Strategic National Stockpile. The cupboards were bare. You've heard me say it a lot. When we came into this administration, those cupboards were bare. I've come to this major medical supply distribution hub because the workers here at Owens & Minor have a critical role in this national effort. And it's a critical role that you've fulfilled incredibly well, or I wouldn't be here. I would have found someplace else. [Laughter] And thank you for those beautiful hats. I appreciate it. Thank you. [Applause] Thank you very much. Thank you very much. From the moment this terrible virus reached our shores, each of you has worked relentlessly to get the vital supplies to our healthcare warriors. And they are warriors, aren't they? When you see them going into those hospitals and they're putting the stuff that you deliver. But they're 1 wrapping themselves, and the doors are opening, and they're going through the doors, and they're not even ready to go through those doors. They probably shouldn't. But they can't get there fast enough. And they're running into death just like soldiers run into bullets, in a true sense. I see that with the doctors and the nurses and so many of the people that go into those hospitals. It's incredible to see. It's a beautiful thing to see. But I really call them "warriors." We're all warriors; everyone in our country is a warrior—we have to be—because of what happened. And it should have never happened. It should have been stopped at the source. But each of you has worked relentlessly to get those supplies to our health care warriors and all across the hospitals, and specifically for this plant, in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. As you know, the pandemic has inflicted profound hardship, especially in the areas that you serve. Within one heartbeat, America grieves for every life and every family, all of those that have been lost and all over the world. A hundred and eighty-six as of this morning—186 countries. What a horrible shame. And we thank God for the courage of those on the frontlines. And you make it possible for them. Just as the men and women of Allentown have done in every generation—I know it well— the workers at this facility have answered the call in America's hour of need. Many of you are working long before dawn. You get up, and you go to work, and long after midnight. I know your hours. I was talking to your people and your representatives. They say, "You wouldn't even"—I'm saying, "What are the hours?" They said, "You won't even believe it." I said: "But I work those hours too. We all work. We're all working hard." You're driving forklifts, staging pallets, packing, picking, loading, and shipping all sorts of things all over these primarily three States. Since February, you have deployed an amazing 1.75 million N95 respirators—and you make them now yourselves—3.4 million gowns, 80 million gloves, and much more. And on behalf of our Nation, I want to thank you because you're making America proud. We really do—we thank you very much. Thank you all. Thank you. I'm grateful to Owens & Minor President Edward Pesicka, along with your chief operating officer, Jeff Jochims. We're also joined by Secretary Alex Azar, doing a terrific job—and your statement to the press today was fantastic; he made a very impassioned, strong, powerful statement today—FEMA Administrator Pete Gaynor. Pete, thank you very much. Great job. Fantastic job. You're dealing directly. And you and Admiral John Polowczyk. Where's the admiral? Admiral? Great job. Thank you very much. Are they doing a good job here, Admiral? Huh? Good. When the admiral says "yes," that means you're doing a good job. [Laughter] And the CEO of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, Adam Boehler. Thank you, Adam. Fantastic. Every incredible worker here today is part of the greatest mobilization of American society since World War II. You know that, right? We've done things with generators and ventilators and so many different things. We're making products that nobody ever thought we'd ever need in any mass form. Ventilators is the biggest thing. We made plenty of ventilators, which was very little in the country, because most hospitals didn't need very many. And all of a sudden, they said, "We need hundreds of thousands of ventilators. We need the kinds of numbers that you wouldn't believe." And we were mobilized, and with Adam and with the admiral and with all of these people, and Jared—somewhere, Jared is here. What they did is incredible. We brought geniuses in from Silicon Valley. And all of a sudden, within a short period of time, we had 11 plants out making ventilators. And you wouldn't believe what it is. And now we're—we have so many. Every State has more than they need. 2 We filled up our stockpile. We have over 10,000 now. And we filled it up. We're ready to go in case anything happens, but I don't think anything will happen where you're going to need any more. And we're now helping other countries with ventilators, because nobody can make—you know, you can't make them. They're very tough to make, very expensive. They're—I say it's tougher than making a car. And we make the best ventilator too. So we—they've done a fantastic job. And 2 months ago, you couldn't get a ventilator. We were left virtually none. Over the past few months, the Federal Government has partnered with Owens & Minor and other distributors to launch the very successful and historic Project Airbridge, which is really being thought of and spoken of in glowing terms. Nearly 150 flights have brought 95 million masks, 16 million gowns, and 921 million gloves to America. Can you believe that? Nine hundred and twenty-one million gloves. It's not even conceivable. Guided by our team, workers like you distributed over 1 billion pieces of protective gear to places in need. A truly remarkable accomplishment. After meeting the immediate demand, we'll be transforming and transitioning from Project Airbridge to Sealift, where we're using big ships, giant ships. It's less expensive, and they can carry a lot more. And we don't need the speed anymore because we're very stocked up. Now, as our country begins a safe and gradual reopening, we're launching a monumental effort to replenish and rebuild the Strategic National Stockpile. We also did that, by the way, with fuel.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2020 Remarks at a White House Coronavirus Task Force Press Briefing March 31, 2020 The President. Thank you very much, everyone. Our country is in the midst of a great national trial, unlike any we have ever faced before. You all see it. You see it probably better than most. We're at war with a deadly virus. Success in this fight will require the full, absolute measure of our collective strength, love, and devotion. Very important. Each of us has the power, through our own choices and actions, to save American lives and rescue the most vulnerable among us. That's why we really have to do what we all know is right. Every citizen is being called upon to make sacrifices. Every business is being asked to fulfill its patriotic duty. Every community is making fundamental changes to how we live, work, and interact each and every day. And I wouldn't be surprised to see this going on long into the future, when this virus is gone and defeated. Some of the things we're doing now will be very good practice for the future, including for not getting the flu, which is very devastating also. So some of what we're learning now will live on into the future—I really believe that: shaking hands or not shaking hands, washing hands all the time, staying a little apart. Fifteen days ago, we published our nationwide guidelines to slow the spread of the virus. On Sunday, I announced that this campaign will be extended until April 30.

Jared Kushner Reportedly Briefs Incoming National Security Adviser on Trump's Middle East Policy by Mary F. US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior White House adviser Jared Kushner was responsible for leading the “Peace to Prosperity” plan, an attempt by the Trump administration to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The plan, repeatedly refused by Palestinian leaders, was unveiled by the White House on January 28, 2020. Kushner has briefed incoming national security adviser Jake Sullivan on the Trump administration's policies in the Middle East, David Friedman, the US ambassador to Israel, confirmed Monday during a closed hearing in the Israeli parliament, Axios reported. According to Friedman, Kushner briefed Sullivan on the Abraham Accords process, through which the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain normalized diplomatic relations with Israel last year in negotiations mediated by the United States. Sudan and Morocco have agreed to similar deals with Israel. The Abraham Accords marked the first public normalization of relations between any Arab country and Israel since 1979 and 1994, when Egypt and Jordan, respectively, signed peace treaties with Israel. During the meeting, Trump advisers expressed hope that US President-elect Joe Biden will continue to encourage the normalization of relations with Israel by Arab countries like Saudi Arabia, Axios reported.

Under the guidelines, states will need to meet six metrics that include demonstrating a downward trajectory of COVID-19 cases over a 14-day period and a robust system for testing health care workers before they can proceed to a phased opening. The federal government will continue to work with governors across the country to ensure they have the equipment, supplies and testing resources to reopen safely and responsibly. ▪ As of April 21, FEMA, HHS, and the private sector combined have coordinated the delivery of or are currently shipping: 56.9 million N95 respirators, 82.5 million surgical masks, 5.9 million face shields, 12.3 million surgical gowns, 643 million gloves, 10,998 ventilators and 8,450 federal medical station beds.

  • FEMA) 500 C Street, SW Washington, D.C
    March 31, 2020 The Honorable Pete Gaynor, Administrator Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) 500 C Street, SW Washington, D.C. 20472 Dear Administrator Gaynor: The United States has a primary health care system that serves as a principal lifeline of defense against COVID- 19: The Federally Qualified Community Health Center Program. Partially funded and regulated by the Department of Health and Human Services, Community Health Centers serve 30 million patients, and operate 13,000 urban and rural clinics across every state, territory, and D.C. As you know from your time in Rhode Island, in stable times, CHCs deliver primary care and other health services to underserved communities. In this capacity, they prevent hospitalization, emergency room visits, and other high-cost treatments. When emergencies strike -- hurricanes, floods, fires, hard-hit opioid areas -- CHCs step up, providing immediate care where it is needed most. In Puerto Rico, CHCs were essential to get health care services online in less than 24 hours after Hurricane Maria struck. In California, CHCs shifted patients to safe clinic locations during the fires over the last two years. Now, during the COVID-19 emergency, CHCs have established drive- through testing immediately after receiving testing kits and personal protection equipment in Alabama, Florida, and Washington State. They have increased telehealth services and transformed their operations to respond -- despite drastic drops in revenue from regular patient care. With more than 100,000 staff in their care teams and the ability to integrate other clinical volunteers, these trusted community stakeholders are strategically placed to help mitigate the growth of COVID-19.
