Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
So
this
is
an
opportunity
for
folks
here
in
Evanston,
to
ask
questions
of
elected
officials
of
our
public
health
officials.
This
is
probably
the
fifth
or
sixth
Q&A
that
we've
done
they're
generally
viewed
by
two
to
three
thousand
people
are
watching
this
organ
in
great
a
viewership.
Everyone
knows
that
covin
19
are
on
the
minds
of
folks.
A
We
have
16,000
422
folks
that
have
tested
positive
in
sadly,
528
deaths
in
the
city
of
Chicago
are
which
includes
some
of
congresswoman
Schakowsky
district
we've
had
6,000,
619,
tested,
positive
and
sadly
196,
yes,
and
here
in
Evanston
we
have
a
hundred
and
forty-four
folks
that
have
tested
positive
for
Kovan
19
and,
sadly,
for
deaths,
I'll,
throw
out
one
other
statistic
which
is
important
because
it's
our
neighbor
next
door,
which
is
Skokie
and
Skokie,
has
had
200
confirmed,
killed
in
than
three
cases
in
seven
seven
deaths.
So
those
are
the
current
statistics.
A
What's
out
there
we'll
get
into
a
lot
of
your
questions.
I
know
there
are
questions
about
PPE
s,
the
protective
gear
that
we
have
for
responders
and
healthcare
workers.
But
what
I
like
to
do
now
is
s
congresswoman
Schakowsky
to
just
give
us
a
sense
of
what's
happening
in
Washington
I
know.
People
are
very
appreciative
of
the
work
that
you
and
all
of
your
colleagues
have
done.
Jan
2.
D
D
So
a
hundred
and
fifty
billion
dollars
you're
going
to
like
this
mayor
to
state
and
local
governments
to
manage
this
crisis,
because
we
know
that
most
of
that
revenue
that
hundred
and
fifty
billion
dollars
we
got
in
the
care
and
the
cares
Act
really
not.
A
lot
has
trickled
down
to
the
communities
and
a
lot
of
us
have
really
been
pushing.
D
A
We've
been
pleased
with
all
that
you've
all
done
there
in
Washington
and
more
is
needed
and
I
know
you
know
for
that
and
speaker
Pelosi
does
so.
Thank
thank
you.
It
was
really
pleased
to
hear
you
mention
two
things:
one
about
helping
small
businesses
that
don't
have
a
relationship
with
an
existing
relationship
with
a
bank
because
you're
absolutely
right.
There
and
I've
heard
that
from
folks
here.
A
Did
a
good
job
managing
my
business
I
never
needed
to
have
a
line
of
credit
and
now
I'm
sort
of
left
out
in
the
cold
because
they're
putting
you
know
existing
customers
first
and
first
in
line.
So
that's
wonderful
and
you
know
I
love
the
fact
that
you're
working
on
our
to
help
our
state
and
local
governments
as
well,
because
the
impact
on
our
budgets
is
significant
and
grander
more
about
that
in
the
coming
days.
So
why
don't
we?
Why
don't
we
go
from
there
from
there
too?
B
B
Right
now,
the
governor's
office
is
telling
us
that
estimates
of
revenue
coming
into
the
states
are
down
almost
two
billion
dollars
in
Illinois
for
the
fiscal
year.
Most
of
our
revenue
comes
from
sales
taxes,
income
taxes
and
corporate
income
taxes
and
right
now,
because
of
the
jobless
lots
and
the
number
of
businesses
that
have
closed
down,
it's
really
creating
a
hardship,
that's
expanding.
You
know
beyond
our
local
borders
and
that's
going
to
hit
the
state
as
well.
We
are,
as
a
legislature,
now
we're
working
on
this
issue.
B
We
have
formed
a
number
of
different
working
groups
to
dive
into
this.
It's
essential
that
we
do
have
a
budget
this
year
and
we
will
get
that
done.
We
don't
know
what
it's
going
to
look
like,
yet
we're
still
waiting
for
more
revenues
to
come
in.
Our
budget
group
is
meeting
virtually
and
trying
to
hammer
out
what
are
the
projections,
and
where
can
we
go
from
here,
because
there
are
more
places
that
need
the
funding
now
than
ever
before,
because
our
health
care
system
is
really
taking
the
brunt
of
this.
B
Our
not-for-profits
really
need
help
in
order
to
survive
and
our
hands
are
gonna,
be
tied
in
so
many
ways,
because
the
fact
that
we're
feeling
this
fiscal
impact.
So
when
we
go
to
the
drawing
board
to
create
this
budget,
we
are
going
to
try
to
make
sure
that
our
priorities
are
funded
as
best
as
possible.
At
this
point,
I'm
not
quite
sure
what
that's
going
to
look
like
yet
senator.
A
B
Of
the
working
groups
that
I
do
sit
on
is
the
pension
group,
and
we
are
you
know.
The
pension
issue
has
been
a
big
issue
in
the
state
for
a
long
time
in
that
the
pension
payment
is
a
large
part
of
our
budget
payments
every
year,
and
so
our
group
is
investigating
right
now,
where,
where
are
the
pension
funds,
because
investments
are
being
hurt
all
over,
so
that
means
the
investments
of
the
pension
fund
are
being
hurt.
B
So
what
can
we
do
as
a
state
to
make
sure
that
we
can
still
pay
those
pension
payments
and
still
provide
for
the
rest
of
the
budget
in
the
state?
So
this
is
something
that
we're
examining
right
now
we're
looking
at
all
ideas
across
the
board.
We
have
a
bipartisan
group
looking
at
this
and
hopefully
in
the
next
few
weeks,
we'll
have
a
better
idea
of
where
we
can
go.
Thank.
A
You
thank
you,
and
just
there
was
a
question
about
Evanston
and
the
impact
this
is
having
on
our
budget
still
to
be
determined
just
like
senator
fine
set
at
the
state
level.
Right
now.
The
city
staff
is
estimating
at
least
ten
point
six
million
dollar
shortfall
that
seems
low
to
me
honestly,
but
that's
their
estimate.
A
Right
now
is
ten
point:
six
million
everything
from
auto
tax
to
liquor,
tax,
to
hotel
tax
to
amusement
tax
are
all
down
because
of
this
I've
often
talked
about
changing
our
tax
structure
to
represent
like
the
modern
economy
right
and
so
the
modern
economy
is
rideshare,
and
all
of
that
we've
done
that.
But
as
you
and
that's
actually
been
a
good
source
of
new
revenue,
as
we've
seen,
other
traditional
sources
of
revenue
go
down,
but
now
no
one's
even
using
rideshares.
A
So,
even
even
though
the
modern
tax
that
we
move
to
is
being
impacted,
it's
not
an
issue
just
for
Evanston.
It's
happening
municipalities
across
across
the
country.
We,
our
city
manager,
is
working
with
our
unions
and
trying
to
negotiate
creative
ideas
for
cost
savings
and
operational
efficiencies,
and
we're
going
to
discuss
that
further.
As
a
City
Council
on
April
27
Andrew
had
a
question
for
you
from
one
of
the
listeners.
A
C
So
I
would
say
that
the
first
thing
you
should
do
is
stay.
Patient
Congress
has
allocated
100
of
billions
of
dollars
to
these
programs
because
they
understand
how
important
it
is
that
we
continue
to
help
small
businesses
like
yours,
continue
to
operate
and
maintain
payroll,
and
things
like
that.
However,
these
programs
are
put
together
in
a
matter
of
days,
whereas
typically
these
things
take
place
over
many
months
or
years,
and
so
right
now
the
SBA
is
struggling
to
come
up
with
appropriate
guidance
and
timelines
for
both
these
programs.
C
With
the
e
idea
loans
we're
supposed
to
have
a
briefing
on
Monday
afternoon,
where
we
will
be
told
what
the
timeline
is
for
widespread
disbursements.
How
to
get
frequently
asked
questions
answered
things
like
that,
and
when
we
get
those
answers,
we
will
put
them
out
to
to
you
all
on
the
congressman's
newsletter
and
elsewhere,
wherever
we
can
with
the
PPP
loans,
it's
a
little
bit
more
complex
because
those
are
again
privately
administrate
administered
by
SBA.
C
Certified
lenders
and
I
know
that
chairman
Neil
Velasquez,
the
chairman
of
the
committee
on
small
business,
has
been
putting
forth
all
sorts
of
questions
to
the
SBA
and
to
the
Department
of
Treasury.
It's
man
the
answers
on
how
we
can
keep
these
accountable,
ensure
that
they're
going
to
small
businesses
as
opposed
to
savvy
businesses
that
got
in
early
and
we're
gonna,
get
answers
as
soon
as
we
can.
So
we
need
a
little
bit
more
time,
probably
to
get
definitive
guidance
on
both
these
programs,
but
hopefully
next
week,
we'll
have
more
information
to
give
you.
D
If
I
could
just
add
there,
the
sense
of
urgency
that
we're
getting
is
universal
in
the
in
the
United,
States
and
I
think
that
is
going
to
help
move
this
along.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
question,
because
everybody
is
asking
it
when
when
and
when
and
and
so
I
think,
this
is
prompting
as
much
speed
as
we
can
as
we
can
get
so
it's
important
to
keep
asking.
A
D
D
The
lack
of
leadership
and
coordination
from
the
presidents
and
they
I
don't
want
to
say
federal
government,
because
I
think
a
lot
of
the
agencies
are
actually
trying
their
best
to
make
this
happen.
But
we
lost
some
time,
that's
for
sure,
before
the
the
president
really
engaged
fully
and
I'm,
not
sure
he's
totally
there
yet
because
he's
talking
like
the
government
can
open
the
the
country
can
open
like
a
rocket
and
business
can
go
back
and
that's
not
likely.
So
this
is
unique.
We've
never
seen
this
before
ascent.
A
Senator
fine
Shelley,
you
just
texted
us
what
is
being
done
to
protect
our
civil
liberties.
Obviously
we're
asking
we're
asking
a
lot
of
people
right
where
the
governor's
stay-at-home
order
stay
home,
save
lives,
it's
essential,
but
I've
gotten
this
question
from
people
as
well
about
you
know
where
you
draw
that
line
between
protecting
people
and
then
people's
civil
liberties.
A
B
B
B
Unfortunately,
we've
seen
lives
lost
and
we've
seen
families
struggle
as
a
result
of
this,
but
by
telling
people
that
hey,
you
know,
you
have
all
these
freedoms,
but
right
now
you
need
to
curtail
a
little
bit
for
the
greater
good.
It
seems
to
be
working
and
that's
something
that
we're
all
struggling
with.
But
we
know
what
we're
doing
is
for
the
better
of
society.
A
Thank
You,
senator
and
I
was
on
a
call
earlier
today,
organized
by
the
US
Conference
of
Mayors,
with
dr.
Burks
who's
heading
up
the
president's
Task
Force,
and
she
reiterated
just
that
point
that
you
were
saying
that
you
know
all
the
experts
that
are
looking
at
all
the
data
are
seeing
that
you
know
the
stay
at
home
orders
and
all
the
sacrifice
that
everyone
is
making
is
making
a
difference
in
the
numbers.
But
we
can't
let
we
can't
let
up.
D
Actually
they
are,
the
number
of
projected
deaths
has
gone
down,
which
is
a
good
thing.
The
latest
number
I
heard
was
something
like
60,000,
that's
good,
unfortunately,
on
Fox
News,
what
they're
saying
as
well.
They
say
it's
because
of
social
distancing,
but
maybe
it's
just
because
this
is
not
a
big
deal,
but
even
60,000
people
dying,
as
is
too
many
and
I
want
to
congratulate
people
that
are
observing
the
the
distancing
and
staying
at
home
and
I
actually
call
the
police
because
I'm
not
going
to
even
mention
the
park.
D
A
Appreciate
you
not
calling
the
mayor,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
You
see
that
out
there
and
you're
listening,
call,
call
3-1-1
or
call
or
call
the
police.
We
do
have
the
police
patrolling
parks
again
I
think
we
have
the
vast
vast
majority
of
people
complying.
That
is
out
of
the
governor's
to
order,
but
we
all
need
that.
You
are
part
congressman.
A
question
came
in
from
I,
don't
know
who
this
one.
Maybe
this
was
Shelley
as
well,
what
is
being
done
to
get
people
back
to
work?
A
D
D
A
C
So
you
should
be
on
the
lookout
for
that
I'm
sure
they'll
be
on
the
congresswoman's
website.
Additionally,
if
you're
a
non
filer-
and
you
want
to
get
this
out
of
the
way
right
now-
the
IRS
just
today,
I
believe,
did
release
a
tool
where
you
can
put
in
your
information.
Your
direct
deposit
information,
so
that
you
can
receive
the
stimulus
check
will
make
sure
that
that's
available
as
well.
Thank.
A
You
just
for
folks
that
are
watching
I,
know,
there's
so
many
programs,
some
traditional
programs
and
entirely
brand-new
programs
that
are
being
stood
up.
There's
a
lot
of
information,
there's
no
one
person
that
has
all
this
information,
and
so
to
some
of
these
questions
about
some
of
the
federal
programs.
I
just
want
to
put
a
plug
in
for
the
newsletters
that
Andrew
and
Congressman
Schakowsky
office
produces
because
they're
giving
really
up-to-date
information
about
the
stimulus
payments
which
I
know
are
on
the
minds
of
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
people.
You
know
this.
D
D
We
had
a
victory
because
for
a
while,
they
were
saying
that
people
on
medic
on
Social
Security
we're
gonna,
have
to
file
a
tax
return
or
at
least
submit
something
we
managed
to
get
rid
of
that
so
that
people
on
Social
Security.
Of
course
they
have
your
address.
They
have
all
your
information.
You're
gonna
get
your
your
check
as
if
it
were
through
a
direct
deposit.
They
you
don't
need
that
they
know
you
you're
gonna,
get
your
check.
A
B
B
When
we
do
talk
about
social
distance,
I
almost
feel
like.
We
need
to
change
your
vocabulary
and
cause
positive
physical
distance,
because
we
have
so
many
people
now
in
our
communities
who
feel
so
socially
isolated.
But
this
social
distance
doesn't
mean
that
and
I
know
I've
seen
this
before,
because
I'll
be
out
walking.
My
dog
and
I'll
see
somebody
across
the
street
now
wave
and
they
look
down,
but
we
need
to
know
that
that
human
interaction
is
so
important
for
our
well-being.
B
Why
can't
we
do
that
here
and
I
think
my
greatest
example
of
that
is
on
my
son's
college
campus
when
classes
were
canceled
on
a
Monday,
and
this
was
several
weeks
ago
and
the
kids
knew
that
they
were
going
to
be
going
home.
There
were
a
couple
of
quote-unquote,
healthy
kids
who
decided
to
have
a
party,
and
now
there
is
well
over
a
hundred
people
who
have
been
tested
positive
for
the
virus
from
that
college
campus.
So
even
healthy
kids
can
get
it
and
I.
B
A
Thank
you.
The
way
I
described
it
I've
right,
you
can
go
on
the
governor's
website
or
the
Illinois
website,
and
you
can
find
the
proclamation.
It's
nine
pages.
Long
I've
read,
I've,
read
the
proclamation
and
it's
really
thoughtful
about
what
you
can
and
can't
do.
I
do
think.
The
best
way
is
again
just
that
that
slogan
thing
that
came
out
of
Chicago,
you
know
stay
home,
save
lives.
The
only
time
you're
leaving
is
again
your
essential
worker
or
you're
going
out
to
do
an
essential
function
and
you
are
allowed.
A
You
know
to
go
out
and
exercise
walk
your
dog
you're,
not
a
lot
of
eat.
You
should
be
buying
team
sports.
Okay,
anything!
You
know,
basketball,
football,
none!
None
of
that!
That's
caught!
That's
contact!
You
need
to
practice
strict
social
distancing
and
that's
the
only
way
that
we're
gonna
be
successful.
The.
D
Other
thing
is:
when
you
go
out,
you
know
that
the
Centers
for
Disease
Control,
the
CDC,
has
now
suggested
masks
on.
You
know
you
can
make
one
yourself
a
cloth
mask
to
cover,
be
sure
and
take
with
you
when
you
go
out
you're
hand
sanitizers.
So
if
you're
going
to
a
store
and
you're
pushing
a
cart
if
you're
not
wearing
gloves,
you
certainly
want
to
not
touch
your
face
and
put
hand
sanitizer
on
so
take
those
precautions
and
wash
wash
wash
absolutely.
A
D
I
think,
oh
here
it
is
dan
we're
trying
to
determine
how
how
the
fun
oh,
the
CIMMYT,
the
stimulus
package
provided,
14
billion
dollars
for
colleges
and
universities.
That's
probably
what
you're
referring
to
to
Dan
that
amount.
12
billion
dollars
is
directed
to
colleges
and
universities
that
are
based
on
full-time
equivalent,
enrollment
and
and
the
and
of
course
the
other
thing
is.
D
We
want
to
make
sure
that
some
money
is
also
going
to
the
the
students
who
need
need
some
support,
but
what
we
know
is
that
the
amount
of
money
that's
been
designated
really
does
fall
short
of
what
is
necessary
to
provide
the
minimal
assistance
to
other
institutions
of
higher
learning
and
I'm,
certainly
pushing
down
in
Congress.
But
andrew
is
right
that
we
have
known
at
the
time
line.
We
don't
have
a
timeline
yet,
but
you
know
we'll
keep
pushing
it's
interesting
too
I,
don't
know
if
you
work
at
a
university.
D
C
A
You
you
know
something
I've
told
the
people
is
this
particular
disaster
is
affecting
everybody.
There
isn't
anyone,
that's
not
impacted
by
this
disaster.
No
one
will
be
made
whole
again.
I
just
want
to
like
there's
no
way
that
we're
gonna
make
everybody
whole
again,
I.
Think
a
lot
of
the
aid
in
the
programs
again
are
trying
to
help
across
the
board
those
most
impacted.
D
Let
me
just
answer
that
there
are
theories
that
there
will
be
some
industries
companies
that
will
want
to
profit.
You
know
we
call
it
the
pandemic
profiteering.
We
don't
want
to
see
that
and
whatever
money
goes
out
federal
dollars,
your
taxpayer
dollars.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
nobody
is
using
this
as
an
opportunity
to
exploit
that's
why
it's
really
frustrating
and
inappropriate
that
the
president
fired
the
not
attorney.
A
D
Other
Inspector
General
is
the
third
Inspector
General
by
the
way,
in
a
short
time
that
he
has
actually
fired
because
he
doesn't
want
that
kind
of
oversight.
But
you
know:
we've
created
an
oversight.
Commission
we're
gonna,
have
a
an
oversight,
select
committee
bipartisan
in
the
house
also
to
to
look
at
that.
So
everybody
needs
to
pitch
in
and
some
are
looking
for
ways
to
profit.
A
C
Mayor
just
button
sorry
Betsy,
DuBose
I
guess
yesterday
said
that
she's
going
to
immediately
distribute
six
billion
of
the
education
dollars.
So
that's
not
that's
the
update
that
I
just
got
from
DC
celebrate
good
great.
A
You
like
that
Senate
Senator,
fine,
what
measures
are
being
taken
to
protect
our
health
care
workers
and
courageous
men
and
women
on
the
front
lines
of
this
disaster?
Is
financial
restoration
being
given
to
hospitals
to
compensate
for
their
loss
of
revenue
as
they've
had
to
prepare
for
this
epidemic
and
that's
a
question
from
Maureen
right.
B
And
I
believe
in
the
federal
package
there's
about
a
hundred
billion
dollars
that
are,
that
is
going
to
our
hospitals
that
will
provide
for
funding
spent
due
to
the
virus.
As
far
as
our
health
care
workers-
and
we
can't
say
enough
about
these
brave
men
and
women
who
are
really
risking
their
lives
every
day,
so
we
can
stay
safe
and
that
goes
along
with
the
last
message
you
were
talking
about.
That's
why
we
need
to
stay
home,
so
they
can
properly
do
their
jobs
for
us
in
Illinois.
B
We
are
doing
everything
we
possibly
can
to
try
to
get
enough
of
the
PPE
for
these
workers.
The
governor's
office
has
been
doing
an
incredible
job,
reaching
out
to
state
legislators
to
reach
out
to
their
communities
to
try
to
figure
out.
Are
there
any
companies
within
our
communities
that
do
have
these
supplies,
so
we
can
hook
them
up
with
the
state
and
the
state
can
further
provide
those
supplies
for
our
workers.
We
know
that
this
is
a
very
trying
time.
B
A
D
D
But
no,
we
we
are
going
to
insist
on
an
election
and
maybe,
and
hopefully
not
it'll-
have
to
be
by
by
mail.
I
think
we
should
be
a
right
to
go
to
the
polls
by
then,
and
that
is
one
when
you
ask
about
civil
liberties-
and
you
know
just
the
freedom
in
our
country.
This
is
a
must,
and
that
is
not
negotiable
and
we
have
a
majority
in
the
House
of
Representatives.
That's
not
going
to
that's
not
going
to
happen.
B
As
well
that
this
is
voting
is
already
a
discussion
that
we
are
having
in
the
state
legislature.
How
do
we
make
voting
in
November,
easier
and
more
accessible
for
people
to
be
able
to
cast
the
ballot,
and
my
guess,
is
it
going
to
include
things
like
increasing
mail-in
ballots?
Are
we
going
to
take
a
look
at?
Do
we
need
to
have
more
early
voting,
so
there
are
not
in
crowds
at
the
polling
place.
A
B
B
July
15,
yes,
and
for
people
who
have
already
filed
their
taxes,
but
now
can't
afford
to
pay
their
taxes.
At
this
moment
you
don't
have
to
you.
Can
you
can
call
our
office
or
email
our
office,
and
we
can
give
you
the
information
about
the
website
that
you
can
go
to
in
order
to
hold
off
that
payment.
A
B
So
the
government
is
still
working
when
it
comes
to
road
projects.
Our
road
projects
are
getting
underway
and
now's
a
good
time,
because
there
aren't
nearly
as
many
cars
on
the
road.
So
we
won't
have
the
traffic
backups,
but
spring
construction
season
is
underway.
Also,
many
of
our
State
Department's
are
are
still
at
work.
We
have
our
children
and
family
services
providers
who
are
still
doing
their
visits.
Doing
their
outreach.
B
Dcfs
is
still
working.
We
are,
you
know.
We
have
many
essential
state
employees
who
are
continuing
to
do
their
jobs.
Even
in
a
risky
health
environment.
We
are
still
having
home
visits.
We
are
still
taking
care
of
our
seniors.
We're
still
doing
absolutely
everything
we
can.
As
far
as
the
legislature,
we
are
constantly
in
meetings,
be
it
the
group
meetings
in
the
Senate
right
now
we
have
a
number
of
different
working
groups
focusing
on
different
issues
that
are
looking
at.
B
You
know
not
necessarily
what's
happening
now
with
the
virus,
but
how
do
we
prepare
for
what
happens
next?
Like
I'd
mentioned
we're
looking
into
pensions,
the
budget
I'm
on
Affordable
Health
Care?
That's
another
issue
that
the
state's
looking
into
right
now,
so
these
are
all
all
different
ways
that
the
government
does
continue
to
work
for
you
and
I
want
to
add
that
congresswoman
Schakowsky
office,
my
office,
our
staffs,
although
we're
sheltered
at
home,
we're
still
working,
our
phones
are
still
working.
Our
emails
are
still
going
so
anytime.
Anybody
needs
help
with
anything.
A
A
If
you
go
downtown
there
aren't
any
cars
downtown,
because
all
the
businesses
are
pretty
much
so
many
of
them
are
closed,
but
we're
taking
advantage
of
this
opportunity
to
do
lots
of
treats
I
mean
things
that
are
invasive
and
sort
of
not
convenient
for
our
residents
that
we
can
do
now.
One
of
the
questions
that
I
get
a
lot
is
you
know,
will
you
stop
a
street
cleaning
street
sweeping
because
we're
all
at
home
and
the
issue
there
is
one
of
the
other
critical
pieces
of
infrastructure?
A
Are
our
sewer
systems
and
our
water
systems
and
need
to
maintain
those,
and
that's
actually
one
of
the
reasons.
It's
not
just
a
beautification
of
streets
sweeping
the
streets,
but
it's
making
sure
that
those
remain
safe
and
clean.
So
we
do
need
to
continue
to
do
to
do
street
sweeping
congresswoman
Schakowsky
has
have
you
been
in
any
briefings
and
is
there
discussion
and
people
working
on
a
sort
of
a
nationwide
plan,
or
is
this
going
to
be
state-by-state
how
we
come
out
of
this?
D
Know
actually,
we
can't
do
this
state-by-state,
because
people
travel
across
borders
and
even
though
states
were
we
know
that
we're
bending
the
curve
and
things
are
getting
better.
It
would
be
very
risky
to
just
start
everything
back
up
again
in
that
state,
because
we
don't
have
borders
that
I
can't
be
crossed,
but
I
I
do
know
that
we
are
making
plans
to.
We
have
a
infrastructure
bill
that
we
are
anxious
to
we're
anxious
to
get
to
the
recovery
stage,
not
just
the
emergency
response
stage,
and
we
want
to
invest
in
green
jobs.
D
You
know
one
of
the
benefits,
no
I,
don't
want
to
say
benefit,
but
one
of
the
side
effects
of
the
shutting
down
of
governments
pretty
much
around
the
world
and
activity
is
that
the
emissions
have
gone
down
hugely
across
the
world
and
our
air
as
as
much
is
much
cleaner.
We
don't
want
to
blow
that
when
we
do
an
infrastructure
project
and
put
lots
of
people
to
to
work,
we
want
to
do
it
in
a
green
way,
but
I
do
think
it's
important
to
understand
that
we
have
to
do
it
together.
D
A
Was
a
great
article
in
the
New
York
Times
today
by
a
bunch
of
experts
in
terms
of
how
will
we
know
when
we're
ready
to
reopen-
and
there
were
four
criteria
that
I
thought
I'd
share
with
people,
one
is
hospitals
in
states
must
be
able
to
safely
treat
all
patients
requiring
hospitalization
without
resorting
to
crisis
standards
of
care.
We're
in
crisis
standards
of
care
right
now
in
hospitals
to
all
states
must
be
able
to
test
everyone
with
symptoms
which
we're
not
at
that
point
right
now.
A
The
state
is
able
to
conduct
monitoring
of
confirmed
cases
and
contacts
which
we
are
all
doing
we're
doing
contact
tracing
all
of
our
public
health
agencies
in
Forth.
There
must
be
a
substantial
reduction
in
cases
for
at
least
14
days.
You
know
that's
sort
of
the
incubation
period
of
this,
so
that's
a
good.
If
people
want
to
start
thinking
about
okay,
how
do
we
get
CDC
our
way
out
of
here?
That
was
a
really
good
article,
senator
fine
what
mental
health
resources
are
available
for
residents
during
this
difficult
time.
A
We've
talked
about
this
at
the
mayor's
Task
Force
meetings
that
I
have
twice
a
week,
I've
just
brought
on
a
couple
of
mental
health
professionals
who
are
leaders
here
in
the
community,
so
we
don't
lose
sight
of
that
important
sector
and
I
personally
I
know
many.
Other
people
are
worried
about
people's
mental
health.
B
I've
had
a
lot
of
conversations
with
different
mental
health
organizations,
and
one
great
concern
is
in
a
time
of
crisis.
We
want
to
come
together
and
right
now
we're
told
you
know
we're
in
crisis,
but
you
can't
come
together.
So
not
only
are
we
experiencing
mental
health
issues
now,
but
we
don't
know
what
the
problem
is:
gonna
be
as
we
move
forward.
B
So
in
Illinois,
the
governor
has
signed
an
executive
order
to
allow
insurance
to
pay
for
telehealth,
so
people
have
access
to
their
psychologists
their
to
their
psychiatrist
through
telemedicine,
and
that
is
a
huge
help.
Ironically,
this
is
a
bill
that
I've
been
working
on
in
the
Senate
before
the
crisis
came
out,
and
so
now
I'm
hope
that
this
is
a
bill
that
will
easily
pass
because
people
are
getting
the
services
that
they
need
because
of
telehealth.
We
are
also
extremely
fortunate
within
our
communities.
B
You
know,
because
we
have
groups
like
Nami
on
the
Family
Service
Center,
the
Gosselin
Center,
that
are
providing
group
sessions
via
zoom,
or
you
know
you
can
contact
them
and
set
up
a
one-on-one
session,
and
these
are
essential.
Mental
health
is
the
same
as
physical
health,
and
you
can't
have
one
without
the
other,
so
we
have
to
do
whatever
is
possible
in
order
for
people
to
be
able
to
reach
out
and
get
the
services
that
they
need.
The.
D
D
D
C
A
All
of
our
our
logistics
team
at
the
emergency
operation
center?
It's
a
still
picture,
but
that's
the
center
behind
me.
You
can
see
if
you
can
see
that
we
have
a
logistics
team
that
all
they
are
doing
is
making
sure
that
we
can
get
our
hands
on
PPEs
for
our
own
emergency
responders,
but
also
as
sort
of
an
emergency
backup
if
we
need
it
for
congregate,
care
living
facilities
here
in
everything,
and
that
team
is
also
supplying
our
workers
with
masks
and
other
PPEs.
A
The
CDC
guidelines
or
recommendations
is
that
the
n95
masks,
which
is
a
very
specific
kind
of
mask
being
here
for
our
health
care
workers
in
our
emergency
responders.
So
those
are
those
are
pretty
much
reserved
there,
but
our
other
city
staff
are
being
offered
masks
that
are
out
there
doing
doing
work
and
it's
the
congresswoman
said
earlier.
A
Cdc's
recommendation
for
all
of
us
now
is
when
you
are
out
in
public
to
wear
a
mask:
okay,
and
it
can
be
a
cloth
mask,
it
does
not
have
to
be
the
n95
congresswoman
Schakowsky
john
emailed
and
said:
I
have
read
that
air
pollution-
and
you
touched
on
this
just
a
second
ago
whether
in
your
library
I've
read
that
air
pollution
and
greenhouse
gas
emissions
have
gone
down
substantially
during
the
shutdown.
What
are
we
or
can?
A
D
Unfortunately,
you
know
the
president
is
still
talking
about
oil,
but
I
think
that
now
most
people
in
this
country
and
and
even
in
the
private
sector
we're
looking
at
investments
now
that
we
ought
to
be
helping.
You
know
that
we
are
still
subsidizing
the
fossil
fuel
industry
to
the
tune
of
some
billions
of
dollars
every
year,
it's
kind
of
inherited,
and
we
have
to
say
we
should
be
stopping
that.
But
at
the
very
least
we
should
be
putting
real
investment
into
all
of
the
alternative
energy
sources.
A
True,
of
course,
we
are
entering
springtime
and
the
birds
the
birds
are
coming
out.
We've
got
time
for
one
more
question
for
each
of
you
before
we
wrap
up
so
Andrew.
Let's
go
with
this
question
for
you.
This
is
from
Joanna.
If
I
resigned
from
my
job
can
I
get
unemployment,
I
think.
C
A
C
I
think
that's
pretty
fact
dependent
I
think
that
it
would
depend
on
if
she
was
unable
to
work,
because
she
was
in
a
highly
susceptible
demographic.
Maybe
she
had
you
know
she
was
a
cancer
survivor
or
something
like
that
and
she
was
unable
to
do
her
job
because
of
that
in
light
of
the
current
pandemic.
That
might
be
something
but
I
think
we
would
need
to
know
more.
A
C
D
Could
just
if
I
could
just
add
this
I
think
that
this
pandemic
has
shown,
as
demonstrated
so
many
holes
in
our
system
and
to
here
our
paid,
leave
and
also
child
care
which
have
been
problems
that
have
been
with
us
before
this?
For
you
know
decades,
and
now
this
is
again
perhaps
an
opportunity
for
us
to
fill
a
hole
that
we
know
exists
in
so
many
people
in
this.
In
this
country
we
have
to
have
affordable
childcare
and
we
have
to
have
really
adequate
paid
leave
for
four
people.
A
A
Thank
you.
So
let
me
end
with
one
question
and
I'm:
gonna
ask
to
serve
we'll,
go
with
you,
senator
fine
and
then
Congress
will
miss
your
house
should
Kowski.
This
is
a
difficult
time
and
uncertain
time,
painful
time
forever
for
everyone,
if
there's
a
silver
lining
right
now.
What
do
you
think
it
is?
A
I
said
this:
this
has
been
a
difficult
and
a
painful
time
for
forever
for
everyone,
some
more
even
more
so
than
others,
and
yet
you
know
out
of
bed.
You
know
come
some
good
and
do
you
see
from
where
you
almost
sit
like
a
silver
lining
of
how
things
could
be
better
in
the
future
because
of
what
we're
going
through
right
now,
oh
absolutely.
B
I'm,
an
eternal
optimist
and
I
really
feel
like
we're
going
through
something
now,
but
something
good
has
to
come
of
it
and,
as
congresswoman
Schakowsky
said,
we're
really
going
to
look
at
what
our
priorities
are
in
the
state
and
in
the
country
and
make
sure
we
focus
on
those
priorities
and
many
things
we're
seeing
right
now
is
how
do
we
care
for
families?
How
do
we
care
for
the
most
vulnerable
in
our
communities?
B
A
D
On
a
personal
level,
at
least
at
first
I
think
people
are
gonna,
be
so
happy
to
be
able
to
be
with
their
families
to
appreciate
what
it
means
to
be
able
to
be
physically
close
to
be
able
to
depend
on
on
one
another
and
and
so
I
think,
there's
just
going
to
be
a
lot
of
psychological
goodies
to
come
out
of
out
of
this,
but
I
think
we
now
have
seen
how
what
unprepared
looks
like
and
there's.
You
know.
A
Thank
you
and
I
would
say
what,
for
me
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
is
positive
about
this
lousy
and
terrible
experience
that
we're
going
through.
Is
it
shown
how
integrated
we
all
are?
No
matter
what
our
profession
is.
I
love
that
essential
is,
you
know,
childcare
workers
that
are
taking
care
right
of
our
emergency
responders
and
our
health
care
workers
they're
the
baggers
and
the
checkers
at
the
grocery
at
the
grocery
store
and
then
they're
on
the
other
end
right.
A
There
there's
incredible
smart
scientists
who
are
trying
to
develop
a
vaccine
for
this
and
and
the
folks
that
are
in
forecasting
and
modeling
and
where's
this
going
to
go.
I
just
think
that
that's
a
nice
message
for
all
of
us
to
remember
that,
no
matter
what
you
do,
it's
important
collectively
for
all
of
us,
so
I
want
to
thank
all
of
you
all
four
of
you
for
spending
some
time
with
the
residents
of
Evanston
today,
I
appreciate,
you
know
all
the
support
that
you've
given
us
here
locally.
A
We
know
you're
strong
advocates
for
us
and
I
be
safe
and
be
well
I
know
there
were
questions
that
we
just
didn't
have
time
for
you
a
lot
of
an
hour.
We
didn't
have
time
to
get
to
every
question.
We'll
continue
to
do
this
here
in
Evanston,
where
we
do
weekly
coronavirus,
frequently
asked
questions
and
try
to
get
those
answered
so
and.
