Simms said that the House acted by passing the Heroes Act, and she urged the Senate to approve that measure.⁣ ⁣ "Senator Mitch McConnell can use his immense power to do the right thing and shepherd the passage of the Heroes Act. The question is, will he act to save lives or will he continue to turn a deaf ear to the pain and suffering of the American people. Including the nation's nurses?"」7月22日 9時01分
