Senator Dianne Feinstein weighed-in Friday on the ongoing Coronavirus crisis sweeping California; saying the state’s biggest problems are “homelessness and affordable housing.”

“Homelessness and affordable housing remain two of the biggest challenges facing California. We’re seeing the consequences of both problems with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. I’m glad HUD has granted Los Angeles $35 million to help fund a critical housing project,” posted the Senator on social media.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi congratulated Senate Democrats this week for “objecting” to Sen. Mitch McConnell’s $250 billion package to further assist small businesses during the Coronavirus crisis.

“On MSNBC, Nancy Pelosi congratulated Senate Dems on rejecting a $250 billion to shore up small businesses. ‘I congratulate the Senate Democrats, they went to the Floor when Mitch McConnell went in for the $250 billion. And they said they objected,’” posted former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley.
