Why do we have to sit around and wait for a totally dysfunctional congress to pass a bill to help millions of Americans hugely suffering, going homeless, losing jobs and businesses and health? This is a national crisis. If there was ever a reason for an executive order, this is it. The president needs to rescue and help his citizens right now. This doesn’t happen in other first-world countries. Come on, politicians, do what you’re hired for. Find your heart.
