Governor Cuomo's PAUSE Executive Order went into effect last night, Sunday March 22, at 8pm. All workers, except those working in essential industries, should now be working from home. I know that these closures are greatly affecting workers across our city and I want to hear how your employment has been impacted by COVID-19. You can share your story here. In addition to the workforce, college and graduate students' education has upended by COVID-19. If you are one of these students, please share your story with me here.

I wanted to remind you all that the PAUSE Executive Order from Governor Cuomo goes into effect tonight, Sunday March 22, at 8pm. As we take this important step to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus, I ask again, how can I help you? I am working with my colleagues in Congress and with leaders here in NY to make sure we have the resources we need to weather this storm, but I also want to hear from you. If you are a college student whose education has been interrupted by COVID-19, please share your story with me here and if your employment has been impacted by COVID-19, please share your story here.

How can I help you? I know that this a difficult time for everyone and in addition to helping you navigate federal resources and agencies as we all contend with the impacts of COVID-19, I think one of the most important things I can do as a public official is to share important, verified information with you frequently and reliably.

Dear Friend,
I wanted to reach out with a quick update on the government’s actions relating to COVID-19. I am closely monitoring the situation, talking with experts, and coordinating with the relevant health authorities and government agencies; however, I know that many in the public would like more information.

Dear Friend,
With so much misinformation out there about the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), I wanted to share some facts and resources with you. Obviously, the sudden outbreak of this virus and its rapid transmission are concerning; however, I think the best policy is to be well informed.

Dear Friend,
This week, I travelled with my colleagues to Puerto Rico to get updates on the island’s recovery in the wake of multiple natural disasters, including recent earthquakes. Our delegation was led by House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer and included Congresswomen Nydia Velázquez and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
