Rep. Katie Porter ✔@RepKatiePorter
My COVID-19 test came back negative, which is a relief. I am still staying home, because I have symptoms and need to recover; this means I will not be able to travel to Washington, DC to vote.

I support the CARES Act, a relief package that will bring critical resources to help families and small businesses in our community. I will be providing more information about this bill to you and will continue to work with our community and my colleagues to address the pandemic.

I hadn't heard about Sen. Klobuchar's husband either until this thread. Another great piece of news that he's recovering so well.
Please get well soon, both!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
