Assemblyman Jones’: We must get supplies and protective equipment to North Country healthcare and correctional facilities
“In these unprecedented times, we are seeing the emergence of real-life heroes; healthcare workers, first responders, and law enforcement officials are consistently going to work each day, knowingly putting themselves at risk of contracting COVID-19 to help protect their community. Yet we are sending these brave individuals into harms-way, unprotected. The shortage of medical supplies and personal protective equipment in the North Country is unacceptable and I am calling on the state and federal government to make a concerted effort to get us the supplies we need. Our healthcare and correctional facilities need to have the resources necessary to protect their workers, so they can protect us.”
