Our community, like many others across the world, are dealing with unprecedented circumstances at no fault of their own. Nevertheless, we are working to fight against this deadly virus while pulling together as Americans, just like we have for more than two centuries. I commend the president, his task force, my colleagues, our dedicated medical professionals, and the American people for their continued resolve."
