Highlights:
ON TESTING: “The president acknowledges that testing is core to opening our country back up. The governor’s working hard on it but I’ve got to tell you Sandra, I’m concerned that China is holding up test kits. They are playing games with trade policy to prevent the United States from getting the testing that we need. We are looking into this. We've got to make sure that those tests get freed up, get in our hands and get Americans tested and back to work. This is critical.”
ON DEMOCRATS BLOCKING AID TO SMALL BUSINESSES: “It’s very simple Sandra. Basically, the Democrats are blocking access to funds and every hour that they block access to that additional $250 billion that we know is needed, that millions of small businesses are waiting on getting, that jobs are lost, businesses are shut down permanently. This isn't a game. This isn't a political game. Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are playing a game right now. The programs that they are talking about are very well-funded. We have simply run out of money in a program that was unanimously passed and we just need to re-fund it and get Americans confident that they can reopen their doors very soon.”
