Barack Obama today offered high praise for Elizabeth Warren, endorsing the senator's extensive framework for how to jump-start the economy once the coronavirus pandemic recedes
of recommendations for implementing and overseeing the $2.2 trillion rescue package Trump recently signed into law.
Warren also argued that when it comes to restarting the economy, which has come to a near-standstill in many areas, “only the federal government can cushion the economic blow here in a meaningful way.” She railed too against the lack of widespread coronavirus testing, claiming the data gleaned from such testing can be used to keep an eye on hot spots for Covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus.
“What you’re asking is the question we face all the time around climate change: We may be in competition with other countries economically and politically, but when it comes to saving the planet, we have to find a way to work together,” Warren explained. “There’s no such thing as saving the United States of America and letting the rest of the planet burn up.”
