HEROES Act awaits action – One Illinois

U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley of Chicago touted the bill’s “$2.1 billion for (the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) to support state, local, and tribal health departments,” adding, “We know that we will not be able to fully revitalize our economy until we have this health-care crisis under control so the HEROES Act includes $75 billion for testing, tracing, and treatment and it ensures all Americans have increased access to health insurance.”
