WASHINGTON Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., on Tuesday slammed President Donald Trumps new blueprint to ramp up coronavirus testing, saying that it lacked details about how states should implement the plan.
You know the report they issued yesterday? It was pathetic. It didn't have any details. And then at the end, it said let the states do it, Schumer said in an interview on MSNBCs Morning Joe.
Schumer said that he plans to send a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to push for oversight hearings when the Senate reconvenes at the Capitol next week in which committees could call members of the White House coronavirus task force and Trump administration as witnesses.
No one in the administration has given an answer specifically as to how the states should do it and that's one of the reasons I think we need to get the hearings, Schumer said Tuesday.
