This gives me chills. Restaurants across the country need our help! Tell congress to pass the RESTAURANTS Act NOW! saverestaurants.com/letter
Watch this video of an LA bar owner that perfectly crystallizes the absurdity of California’s absurd and ridiculous shutdown rules. xitter.cf/jakecoco/status/133499…

We agree, Mr. President. The bipartisan RESTAURANTS Act would save our industry and has the support of nearly half of the Senate. We need @Senatemajldr to sign on now to #SaveRestaurants and our 16M jobs.
The restaurant business is being absolutely decimated. Congress should step up and help. Time is of the essence!

JUST IN: The Supreme Court, in separate decisions, allowed North Carolina and Pennsylvania to extend their dates to count mail-in ballots. Justice Amy Coney Barrett did not participate in either case. trib.al/PLCLFzh

Senators serious about helping neighborhood restaurants need to join @SenSchumer in fighting for restaurant relief—not another round of PPP. Thank your senator for your leadership in supporting @indprestaurants. #SaveRestaurants

Met with the NE Restaurant Association and their members to discuss my support for H.R.7197, the Restaurants Act of 2020, and to learn of their struggles and challenges during COVID. We need to provide direct relief before more closings cripple our economy.

Replying to @IvankaTrump
He killed my mother, Ivanka, dismissed it, and encouraged his followers to taunt and belittle those of us who lost loved ones.

We are grateful to @SenatorWicker and @SenatorSinema who have fought tirelessly on behalf of our industry and built strong bipartisan support for direct restaurant relief in the Senate. ATTN SENATE: Follow their lead. We urge you to pass the HEROES Act as soon as possible.

“I’m very proud that [the HEROES Act] includes $120B from our RESTAURANTS Act for saving 500,000 independent restaurants and their 11M employees. 1 in 4 jobs losses is from this industry. We have a chance to do something about it.” — @RepBlumenauer #SaveRestaurants

BREAKING: The House just passed our RESTAURANTS Act, a $120 billion lifeline to help 500,000 independent restaurants and their 11 million employees survive the pandemic. Without it, up to 85% of local restaurants could close forever. The Senate must join us to #SaveRESTAURANTS.

Moment to remember. Q to Trump: Would you condemn white supremacists? Trump doesn't answer the question & brings up ANTIFA. Wallace: Will you condemn white supremacists? Trump: "Proud Boys, stand back & stand by." That is not a condemnation by any stretch of the imagination.

Anybody/everybody who works for me can have as much time as they need on Election Day to vote. If we have to close to get EVERYONE on our teams to vote, considerate it done...

I’m holding on hoping that the people of this country know that a vote for president isn’t a vote for who would win in a street brawl. Also doesn’t an extreme abuse of tax avoidance prove that @realDonaldTrump doesn’t give a shit about this country?

Joe Biden said that a new Supreme Court vacancy means abortion rights are “on the ballot” in November. President Trump pushed back on that, but Amy Coney Barrett's record suggests otherwise. trib.al/q0lWe7z
