It’s an outrage that Congress went on recess without providing additional funding to combat the Zika virus.

This is a public health emergency, and we cannot afford to play petty political games.
How did this happen? House Republicans attached so-called “poison pill” amendments to the Zika funding plan.

In short, Republicans put politics before the best interests of millions of Americans. It was an irresponsible and dangerous move.

When Congress reconvenes after Labor Day, I hope the GOP does the right thing and allows for a clean vote on Zika funding ASAP.

They would have cut funding for
#Obamacare &@PPact. They even tried to lift the ban on Confederate flags in national cemeteries. -
Its absolutely absurd and horrifying. People are dying. How these House R's can sleep at night I'll never understand.
